MP Cable says Saudi Arabia
has appalling Human rights.
The Saudi King also
thinks 7/7 could have been stopped.
Sign Of The Times.

Yes reported on Radio 5.
And SkyNews.

The King had information that it appears the UK ignored
in ref to 7/7.
And he is angry with the UK keeping Saudi Terror people here. |

The type of welcome one receives when visiting the UK officaly as head of state is dictated by the size of your cheque book not your human rights and democratic track record.
The Lib Dems should no this........ |

| I doubt the Saudi King would be bothered, even if he knew what a Lib Dem was. |

Okay ... so we have King Abdullah and we have a foreign visit. So far so good. But - and yes there is a but - this nice shiny image of a front page refers to the US and a visit to the US.

| I try never to miss a Robert Fisk article, usually for the amusement value of his whacky ideas and outright conspiracy-mindedness, but this one pretty much hits the nail on the head. It's just a shame that Fisk fails to see the relationship between the Wahabism he so decries in this article with its effects on Hamas and even on Hezbollah, although the latter takes much more from the Iranian revolution. Still, Fisk always wants his cake and eats it too. |

3.5 Billion Pounds trading deals with these Arabs.
So it is clear Human Rights are pushed under the carpet
as more Mega Deals are signed.
No Lib Dems
Saudi Arabia is happy because
in their nation they would arrest them all. |

As they would be in other countries such China and Burma.
Do we trade with them?
Oh yes.
Money rules, humans just do not matter. |
