The Saudi Arabian soccer team failed to line up for a minute's silence for the London terror victims on Thursday night.

Fans were left outraged at the display ahead of a World Cup qualifier against Australia in Adelaide.

Pictures show the Australian team lined up at the halfway mark, with the Saudi players appearing to ignore the gesture as they get in formation to start the game.

It is also claimed Saudi players on the bench refused to stand for the minute's silence.

Note - one Saudi player can be seen standing respectfully and properly which means the argument that the others didn't know what was expected is very hard to give any credit to even if people wanted to believe it.

I think that one player might want to make an asylum request.

It’s surprising the mooselimbs didn’t cheer and high-five over the slaughter of the infidels in London.

I’ve never heard anything good about Saudis. They seem to just be a defective group overall.

On the plus side, the Aussie players should be happy that the moozlums didn’t chop their heads off.

That one player represents the small percentage of Muslims who do not, at least in their heart, quietly support violent jihad, IMHO.

Enough with this “we can’t let a few bad apples” BS from the media. Unless these players are all Isis, (and they very well could be) they reflect muslims in general toward death and destruction of “infidels”. People have to wake up.

Actions speak louder than words.
A lot of “action” is spoken in that picture.
I trust NONE of em....anywhere, anytime.

You are correct. All Muslims support jihad. Some are on the field the rest are on the bench but make no mistake about it, they are ALL on the same team.

It might be possible that many, if not all, of those fine Aussie lads wished they had free rein to demonstrate their displeasure with their opponents’ disrespect.

IMHO

We have no friends among m*slim countries. None of them can be trusted. They sometimes work with us, but they really hate us.
Trust no m*slims.

“That one player represents the small percentage of Muslims who do not, at least in their heart, quietly support violent jihad, IMHO.”

Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner!

EXACTLY! This photo is representative of so much more.

Moderate Muslims, non-jihadi Muslims, represented by this ONE player. They are such a small insignificant number that they (moderate muslims) might as well not exist.

Like I always say... Until THOUSANDS of so-called “moderate” Muslims start protesting in the streets against radical Islam, I consider them all the same.

One thing W said worth remembering...

“You’re either with US or with the terrorists.

I’m not going to give the Saudis kudos or anything but this moment of silence stuff is nonsense. I’m sick of the moments of silence, candlelight vigils, etc. Fight back! The best thing anyone can do for victims of terror is to grind all the terrorists into the ground.

Even in the rainy season, the gene pool is very shallow.

A moment of silence is the bare minimum of support.

It's quite telling that the stony-hearted soddies can't bring themselves to even pretend they have the slightest sympathy for kafirs brutally murdered in their name.

“I’ve never heard anything good about Saudis. They seem to just be a defective group overall.”

I’ve long believed that the Saudis are a major financial and religious source of the upheaval in the Middle East. If you want to read a good book about the Saudis, get “Hatred’s Kingdom” by Dore Gold.

It totally changed my opionion about who the Saudis really were.
