WHAT Kilroy stated about Arabs is true. How do I know? Well after 12 years working in Saudi Arabia I think I know their way of life better than most Islamic people in the UK.

When I was there last just two years ago I was talking to a young Saudi who stated that he was going to Palestine to help his fellow Muslims by hopefully blowing himself up with as many Jewish people as he could.

When I pointed out that maybe the Saudi government might not allow him out of the country his answer was: "they do not object but go out of their way to ensure a easy passage."

It beggars believe that a nation that was founded on the teachings of Mohammad, who was himself a Jew before starting Islam, can seek the total destruction of another nation.
