Libya Calls Saudi Arabia "Kingdom of Darkness"
19:32 Dec 28, '04 / 16 Tevet 5765

The diplomatic, political and very public war between Libya and Saudi Arabia continued this past week - and found expression in harsh editorials in both Arab states.


The weekend press in Libya was filled with invective against Saudi Arabia following the Saudi withdrawal of its ambassador from the North African state and the expulsion of the Libyan ambassador in Riyadh.

The Libyan government-controlled press editorialized against "the kingdom of darkness" on the Arabian peninsula. A December 24th editorial of the Al-Jumhuriyah newspaper, titled "The Kingdom of Black Comedy", suggested Saudi Arabia as the "best ambassador for the pre-Middle Ages." Among other things, the paper notes, the royal Saudis rule over "the life affairs of the society and [ban] the woman from driving the car."

Libyan strongman Moammar Kaddafi, it should be noted, has predominately female elite bodyguards.

Al-Zahf Al-Akhdar attacked the oil sheikhs in the Saudi regime specifically, detailing the difference between the lives of common Saudis and those of the ruling family in what it called the "swollen kingdom".

Saudi newspapers had, a day earlier, said that the expulsion of the Libyan representative was overdue and called Kaddafi "stubborn " and "crazy".

Lybia is starting to clean up its act. They know we're serious, so they got rid of their nuclear program. Althought they are ruled by a dispicable leader, but he knows not to mess with Bush.

Quadafi and Libya have alway been overrated in the "evil" and "bad guy" departments.

Libya is acting nice so that Europe will go ahead and set up the lucrative refugee concentration camps in the desert there. People overestimate US influence.

lol...You REALLY have an issue with europe, don't you? You make such lovely over-generalizations in almost every post you make that has ANYTHING to do with europe. Oh no, wait...This thread didn't have anything to do with europe, did it?

Christ man, get over the fact that some person or people treated you badly while you were in europe and stop labeling everyone there as some evil concentration camp supporting rasist. I'm sure you know europe isn't one country, so for the sake of your mental health, stop acting like it is. It's getting old. You're starting to sound like the idiots who blame Bush or Clinton for everything wrong in the world. And I know you're not an idiot, but man are you obsessing. You should do something about this before it gets worse.

Um, this is thread about Libya and someone stated that they're cleaning up their act because of US pressure. I'm suggesting that is ridiculous, and that US influence is overrated because lucrative contracts with the EU is their priority. It's quite on topic.

Why don't you criticize raildogg for bringing up the US? Both seem to be legitimate issues at hand though. Are you from Europe? The Eurosupremacists are really getting out of hand here. Even when someone just brings up Europe like I just did, people go crazy, even when I'm not criticizing them.

With Libya cleaning up its act, it will be the recipient of lucrative contracts for the camps.

relatively minor, considering that people are always trying to throw him in with he likes of saddam. It not like we never financed any major terrorist operations. :roll:

No, but I currently live there, not that it matters(Or does it? Are you going to label me as one of 'them' because I live there now? I sure hope not.). I'm sure I've told you in a past thead that I currently live in sweden, and that I've lived in both germany and the U.S. among other places. And you know what? I met some a$$hats in U.S. but you don't see me obsessing over it and making it look like everyone there is a a$$hat, do you? Oh, and I met some a$$hats in germany too. Still I didn't seem to have developed this obsession you seem to have now. Conclusion: There are a$$hats everywere, can't avoid them. Don't obsess over them.

Your posts used to be somewhat free of these constant 'europe is evil' interjections. I actually enjoyed reading and agreed with some of your past posts on the things that happen in europe, but it's been getting worse lately. And no, I don't mean what you're posting is getting worse. It's the way you post that's getting worse. I'm not joking. I'm giving you my honest opinion here. I could care less if you thought europe sucks, but this obsession of your is unhealthy. Much like some peoples obsession with Bush or Clinton has gotten out of hand.

You have this pattern now, were you slip in remarks about europe. One doesn't have to be a european to notice it. It should be obvious to anyone who checks your posting history. And perhaps even you, if you're willing to look back. Also, it seems like you're unwilling to even consider that you MIGHT be obsessing...Which is sad...I would have hoped someone like you, who dislikes bigotry and rasism, would be willing to sake a step back and look at his own behavior.

The Eurosupremacists are really getting out of hand here. Even when someone just brings up Europe like I just did, people go crazy, even when I'm not criticizing them.

Oh please. You could say the same about all the americans who post in threads criticizing the US. Goes both ways. So this is bs and you know it. Everyone does this to some degree.

Also, have you actally read what you just wrote? "Eurosupremacists"? You don't sound much better than those you are obsessing about, when you make these comments.

Anyway, enough thread hijacking(For me at least). You can take this to pm with me, if you want. If you don't, well, whatever. Up to you. Either way, this is my last reply to you in this thread.

You honestly think that I post about Europe because of an incident that happened there? LOL.. no. I post because it's an important part of the world and the news coming out of there is very troubling. If I feel it needs to be brought up, I'll bring it up. I believe Libya is cleaning up its act to receive lucrative investment regarding the camps and has been discussed in the media. It's quite valid for this thread. I really want to know why you're so opposed to people discussing it. You should step back and realize what you're saying.

I feel that the obsession of criticizing people who criticize Europe is unhealthy. I'm not even criticizing them here, and people go crazy. I've noticed that you constantly say these types of things to me, so you can be assured that I couldn't care less.

I slip in remarks where it's appropriate. It is appropriate for this thread, just like the comment about the US. I'm sorry, but if it makes you uncomfortable, too bad.

The Eurosupremacists are really getting out of hand here. Even when someone just brings up Europe like I just did, people go crazy, even when I'm not criticizing them.

Actually, I do (regarding Americans).

Also, have you actally read what you just wrote? "Eurosupremacists"? You don't sound much better than those you are obsessing about, when you make these comments.

Perhaps he read God Emporer Of Dune.

thats not the only act of terror directly involving Quadafi and Lybia, they have been a major source of terrorist funding in the past.

Thanks Mr. Reagan for teaching him a lesson
