A few odds and ends - Saudi press releases

[Guest guest]

List:

I just stumbled across this, as usual looking for something entirely different.

Anyway, on

this list of news releases/ stories in Saudi, you don't notice the biowarfare

panic stories

(unless I am missing something) that we have. And they are cerainly in a " high

risk " area

according to our DoD

Thought that was interesting, yet our Navy has to be pumped full of vaccine to

go to the

persian gulf. The locals are seeminly unconcerned if this 6 month list of

stories is any

indication.

Some off topic stuff. (Not trying to get an off topic discussion started, just

tossing this in)

Hmmmmm. most interesting Daddy Bush visits Saudi in January 2000:

" In a press statement today, President Bush reiterated that globalization does

not necessarily

mean hegemony of any country over another, but rather, improvement in living

standards for all human societies "

That comment while " participating in the international economic forum currently

in progress in Jeddah " with

former British Prime Minister Major. Those Saudi's sure like talking to ex

leaders. Wonder who

Major has in mind to follow in his footsteps. Guess we all know who ex prez

Bush has in mind........

Fond as he is of lethal injections, it is doubtful the son will be of much help

to us. Here is a web site that is on to
