[PRESSTV] Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... , already known as the world’s top importer of foreign-made ballistic missiles, has started building its first missile production factory near the central town of al-Watah, The Washington Post has quoted experts as saying.
In a Wednesday report, The Post quoted leading experts as saying that satellite imagery dating back to November appears to show Saudi Arabia's debut ballistic missile factory located at an existing missile base near al-Watah.
This would reportedly be the first known instance of Saudis manufacturing the weapons indigenously, after importing foreign-made ballistic missiles for years.
The photos were discovered by Jeffrey Lewis, a nuclear weapons expert at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey and founder of the Arms Control Wonk blog, and his team.

[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] A 34-year-old Texas man who was captured in Syria and brought to the United States has been charged with providing support to ISIS.
Warren Christopher Clark, 34, of Sugar Land, Texas, appeared before a federal court judge in Houston on Friday, the Department of Justice said.
It said Clark was charged in an indictment unsealed on Friday with providing material support to ISIS -- which the United States has designated as a foreign terrorist organization.
The Justice Department said Clark was captured in Syria by members of the Syrian Democratic Forces, an anti-ISIS alliance of Kurds and Arabs, and transferred to US custody this week.
"The arm of American Justice has a lengthy reach," US Attorney Ryan Patrick said in a statement.
"The FBI continues to aggressively pursue individuals who attempt to join the ranks of ISIS imported muscle or try to provide support for other terrorist organizations," FBI special agent Perrye Turner said.
If convicted, Clark, a former substitute school teacher, could face 20 years in prison.
Clark, in an interview with NBC News before his transfer to the United States, said he went to Syria to become an English teacher for ISIS and was never a fighter.
"I wanted to go see exactly what the group was about, and what they were doing," said Clark, also known as Abu Muhammad al-Ameriki.

[ARABNEWS] Israeli troops on Friday fatally shot a Paleostinian and maimed another as they threw stones at Israeli motorists in the occupied West Bank, the army said.
Soldiers "responded by firing at the suspects, who received medical treatment. One of the suspects later died of his wounds and another was injured," a statement said.
Residents of the dead youth's village of Silwad, near Ramallah, named him as Ayman Hamed, 17.
Earlier, a Paleostinian was rubbed out by Israeli fire during fresh festivities along the Gazoo border Friday, the health ministry said.
Ehab Abed, 25, was "killed by Israeli occupation fire east of Rafah," in southern Gazoo, health ministry front man Ashraf al-Qudra said in a statement.
An AFP journalist at the hospital said he had been shot in the heart.
Thousands of people gathered at multiple sites along the border, with Israeli forces using tear gas and live fire to force protesters back from the border.
Friday's protests were the first since the seeming breakdown of an informal truce agreement between Israel and Gazoo's rulers Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,.

[ALMASDARNEWS] The Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems.... (ISIS/ISIS/IS/ISIS) launched a desperate counter-offensive in the eastern region of the Euphrates River Valley last night after a string of losses at the hands of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).
Using suicide kabooms to crack the Syrian Democratic Forces’ lines near Baghouz Fouqani, the Islamic State allegedly captured the town after heavy fighting last night.
However, women are made to be loved, not understood... it should be noted that the Syrian Democratic Forces have denied losing the town to the terrorist group.
The Islamic State often uses these desperate suicide tactics when they are besieged and short on provisions (e.g. al-Safa battle).
ISIS is trying to regain the towns they lost to the Syrian Democratic Forces around Murshida; however, it appears that their momentum from last night has run out, thanks in large part to the U.S. Coalition warplanes that have been hammering their last positions in the Euphrates River Valley.
