#1 ...um, yeah. That's exactly like forbidding even a whiff of non-Islamic religion into the holy wastelands of Arabia. WTF were we thinking?

#2 A classic case of "Look at the Wookie over there."
There is no freedom of religion in Saudi.
All other statements this assclown satinst death cult leader makes are usless and a waste of breath.

Clean up you baby killing, purposeful terrorist bombing of civilians, beheading of kidnaped hostages, lies and oppression is ok religion.
Oh and FOAD Saudi scholars, every last one of you satanic bastages.

#3 ..saying Washington has “no right to talk about religious freedom and human rights” while supporting Israeli atrocities against the Palestinian people.

Ahhh, the old standby excuse - Israel.

"Mr. Al-Saffar? Excuse me sir, but we're not paying attention to you."

#5 This exercise has one useful purpose and that is to show that dialogue with the Saudis concerning religious freedom is a total waste of time. The Saudi clerics are just not wired for dialogue. With this in mind, we must develop our options for dealing with the issues that are created when the Saudi princes go down. The Saudi muckity mucks (no disrespect to Mucky!) have everything to gain with the status quo and everything to lose by a reformation of Saudi society.

There is one thing for certain: Saudi society, due to Saudi royals financing terrorism, will HAVE TO CHANGE, one way or another.

#7 Oh, God, where is Richard the Lion Heart?

#8 Questions:

Are there mosques in Israel/Palestine? Are there synagogues in Saudi Arabia?

Does this statement prove religious bias:
"Everyday innocent Palestinian men, women and children are killed (at the hands of Israeli forces). Their only sin is they defended their land, life and legitimate rights..."

#9 How do you type that noise you make when you take your finger and twiddle your lips up and down really fast? "BWBWBWBWBWBWBWBWBWB"? Close enough.

#10 The entire Saudi "academic" community is a waste of oxygen and an insult to the human race. They'd get twice the respect from me if they just kept their mouths shut - although twice nothing is still nothing . . .

Maybe we can get Kofi a scholarship to a Saudi school? He'd fit right in.

#11 Thats the tried and trusted BLAME IT ON THE JEWS again. Religious freedom means only one thing to Saudis, freedom to support terrorism and to bash Jews at every opportunity. They exported the Wahabi cult all over the world. And on their Soddy land even muslims that dont belong to cult dont have freedom. Forget Churches, How many mosques are in Soddy that are not run by Wahabis you guessed it "Zero". I think it is a desecration of the word to call a Saudi a SCHOLAR. He is what they all are, camel brained Hashish smoking, child raping Salfists.

#12 And I'm 95% certain the Zionists are behind it.

/do I really need one?

#15 The Suadi argument makes sense only if you consider killing Jewish childern with bombs to a protected expression of the Islamic faith.

#16 Idiotic things like this make me think that Arabic doesn't have a word corresponding to the English word "irony."

#17 When it comes to the Saudis, I'm starting to lean towards "too dumb to live"...
