JEDDAH: Saudi Military Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Fayyad bin Hamad Al-Ruwaili said the Kingdom's
armed forces are confronting all threats from Iran and its allies, adding that he is looking forward to producing a stance that stresses international support in protecting oil facilities and ensuring their protection from future attacks.
Fayyad from Palestinian blog Kabobfest writes about Abdulla Gul's election
as Turkey's president."Ironically, some secular extremists in Turkey, too(have) issue with the fact the Gul's wife, Hayrunisa, wears a hijab, which is banned from all Turkish public institutions, and(for) some reason terrifies some, especially when Mrs. Gul wears into the presidential palace," he writes.
In a parallel example of duplicity, Salam Fayyad, who calls himself the prime minister of the Palestinian Authority,
announced in English in Aspen, Colorado, a year ago that Jews are welcome to live in a future state of Palestine where they"will enjoy[full] rights and certainly will not enjoy any less rights than Israeli Arabs enjoy now in the state of Israel.".
