Saudi Students ‘Victims of Racism’
Arab News ^ | Monday 19 October 2015

Posted on 10/19/2015 1:12:37 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Saudi students sometimes face racial discrimination in the universities of six European states.

They are Austria, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania and Slovenia, said Ali bin Abdullah bin Saqr, Saudi cultural attache in Austria.

Discrimination was one major problem faced by 600 Saudi students studying in universities of these countries, an online newspaper quoted Saqr as saying. He has advised Saudi students to stay away from protests, demonstrations and other places where they might encounter danger.

He said that the cultural attache’s office and the staff in the Saudi embassies deal with the problems of racial discrimination, if and when they arise.

Saqr said that the cultural attache’s office had recently noticed that police in the Czeck Republic had become strict about granting and renewing residence permits. He said that the Saudi Embassy was trying to resolve the issues.

He said that the admission offices of the universities provided assistance to the office of the cultural attache which looks after Saudi students in the six countries. He did, however, warn students against bypassing the attache’s office in matters related to education.

Many countries such as Hungary have expressed willingness to take more Saudi students but there have been some problems in Austria, Saqr said.

Saudi students will soon return to Slovakia for studies; they were stopped from going there because of problems in getting residence permits, he said. Saqr said that most of the Saudi students were studying medicine, health studies, engineering, economics and accountancy.

As opposed to people getting their heads chopped off in Arab countries?

I thought that Arabs had contributed to everything in the world? Why don’t these mutts have their own colleges? Because they want to infiltrate our society and bring us down and on a plus side the get to drink and whore around away from the dhimmis.

Wake up, folks. Western Civilization is at war with Islam again.

It has been ongoing since about 630 AD and hasn't really ended. It just goes through hot and cold periods, and periods of relative Western vs. Islamic strength and weakness.

Right from the Dems playbook. If countries follow their laws own, they’re discriminating against Arabs.

If they are anything like the Saudis my daughter encountered on her college campus, they’re being discriminated against because they are spoiled, coddled jerks with too much money to get into trouble and a leering, condescending attitude towards women.

Of the nineteen Twin Towers 9-11 skyjack murderers, seventeen were Saudis.
The Saudis can all take their whinging over mistreatment and go p*** up ropes.

And I think all, if not most of those Saudis that attacked the Twin Towers were on some kind of student visa.....

Buyer beware......

Here’s an idea. Don’t go to a foreign country. Attend colleges in your own country. Problem solved.

Back in the 70s, Iranians suddenly showed up at my university my senior year. What a disaster. They absolutely HATED being here. They acted like it was torture being here. They refused to speak to anyone, rarely came to class and stayed to themselves. They never did the class work or answered in class. The professors were told to pass them which didn’t help the rest of us when we were graded on the bell curve.

Around 2002, I was on UT Austin’s campus and feared for my life. Muslims were occupying the main stretch and yelling and raising their fists at everyone passing. They had tables set up but don’t know what for because you wanted to stay as far away as possible.

It sounds like there are Saudi students in every university in the Western world. With its decades of oil wealth, hasn’t SA built a few universities in SA to accommodate its students?

When I was in college the Saudis were by far the worst foreign students. The Chinese worked hard. The Indians worked hard. Even a few Turks I knew worked hard. The Saudis coasted, cheated and generally were a pain in the ass. I figure the never did a day’s hard work before coming to the US for study and weren’t about to start then.

Because their parents paid off the officials to let them coast.

““Saudi Arabian” is NOT a race.”

Correct. It is a species of rodent.
