UN Secretary General Kofi Annan has expressed his "horror" at the twin car bomb attack in Saudi Arabia.

A senior UN official, Fred Eckhard said :"He condemns this terrorist act in the strongest possible terms."

Annan had conveyed his heartfelt condolences to the Saudi government and the families of the victims, Eckhard said, adding that the UN boss was "confident that the authorities of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will bring to justice the perpetrators of this cowardly attack."

adding that the UN boss was "confident that the authorities of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will bring to justice the perpetrators of this cowardly attack."

So when Saudi Arabia is hit by terrorists, the UN goes to its arms, and supports it going after the perpetrators. When Israel is hit, he criticizes Israel for provoking the attack and tells her to restrain itself.

Did he blame Bush yet?

You mean Kofi doesn't express the same sentiment when a cafe blows up or a bus is bombed in Israel! Shocking news/sarcasm.

Amen. Arabs killing Arabs is horrible. Arabs killing Jews is a different story. That's classic UN.

[Gunrunner2]

And when the US is attacked by terrorists the UN doesn't want the US to go after the terrorists, they want the US to "understand the root cause" of the attack.

UN is worthless and a foul stench.

What? Nothing from the rest of the world on how the Saudi's "deserved it"?

Kaffi doesnt seem too bothered by Christian boys and girls held as sex slaves
gang raped by muslim thugs in the Sudan

Children mutilated burned alive tortured into either denying their faith or killed

Course doesnt seem like the USA gives a rats patoot about them either

As they are in the way of Oil companies making deals with the rags for oil under the land the Chrisitans occupy....

The Saudis need to give up the Sinai and the upper Nile area to the terrorists for their new state.

I would rather see a car bomb go off ANYWHERE ELSE than in the United States of America.

Unless it was in front of the UN building.

[Gunrunner2]

Do what? Upper Nile. . .in southern Egypt? Sinai? I think you meant for Egypt to give up those areas, not Saudi.

[<1/1,000,000th%]

Heehee...

You're right. It must be past my bedtime.

Well, the Egyptians are Muslims too.

[Gunrunner2]

No problem. . .they are all members of the religion of peace.

How long until the UN and EU blame our occupation of Iraq for the Saudi bombings?

Time for U.S. to get out!!!
