How convenient. They couldn't find the man for ages and then less than 2 hours after the word gets out they killed the American they surround his compound. 1 of 3 things happened: 1) The Saudis always knew where they were but had a deal that the hostage wouldn't be killed. When they violated this, the Saudis closed in. 2) The Americans told the Saudis that if they allowed the American to be killed, we would kill the terrorists ourselves. 3) It was a total coincidence.

- There is some collusion between the kidnappers and the security forces. The security forces were under pressure and got the kidnappers to give them some 'underlings' to play with. Which ever way Saudi Arabia looks like it's heading for the gurgler. Regardz Colin J Davies

Does not sound like an underling from the reports I am reading. ColinDavies wrote: There is some collusion between the kidnappers and the security forces.

Now I feel that most westerners just do not understand the Arabic mindset. The Saudi's know they can not tollerate the Terrorists and they know they can not betray their own people. So what do you do? The few Arabic individuals I know just do not want to talk about it. I do not mind getting old. It beats all the other options that can think of.
