When asked about the recent bombing in Riyadh, Al-Hijazi referred to Saudi media reports — which claimed that in the attack Muslim women and children were killed — as "merely media deceit."

Yes. I guess those dead children were actually child actors from Hollywood, who were just playing dead.

Do we know for a fact that the children and other people killed in Riyadh included Moslems? (There's been a lot of evidence suggesting that many or most of them were Lebanese Christian Arabs.) The Saudis might just be claiming that the dead included Moslems for propaganda purposes.

What he means is the "deceit" was the Saudi govt. saying that Muslims died, not that people died.

It was an anti-Christian (Arab) attack.

This fact is not unknown in the Arab press, but the Western one likes to push the theory that since some Americans lived there back in 1999, AQ really meant to attack Americans, and was merely mistaken.
