	Saudi Arabia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It borders Jordan on the north, Iraq on the north and north-east, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates on the east, Oman on the south and south-east, and Yemen on the south, with the Persian Gulf to its north-east and the Red Sea to its west.
		The Basic Law adopted in 1992 declared that Saudi Arabia is a monarchy ruled by the sons and grandsons of the first king, Abd Al Aziz Al Saud, and that the Holy Qur'an is the constitution of the country, which is governed on the basis of Islamic law (Shari'a).
		Saudi Arabia was a key player in the successful efforts of OPEC and other oil producing countries to raise the price of oil in 1999 to its highest level since the Gulf War by reducing production.

	Saudi-American Forum - Saudi Arabian Investment - Saudi Arabia Relations Information
		Saudi Arabians have allocated an estimated 60% of their global investments to the United States through passive and direct investments.
		Saudi and other foreign investors with no complicity whatsoever with 9/11 or links to terrorism nevertheless perceive the aggressive efforts of an army of U.S. lawyers and entrenched interest groups to "link and accuse" foreigners in a broad net of litigation.
		Investors from Saudi Arabia and the rest of the Middle East are receiving a message that the United States is hostile to their investment and will actively dismiss FDI at the same time as other states eagerly pursue them.

	Saudi Arabia
		Saudi Arabia, with an area of about 865,000 square miles, occupies the bulk of the Arabian peninsula.
		Saudi Arabia's terrain is varied but on the whole fairly barren and harsh, with salt flats, gravel plains, and sand dunes but few lakes or permanent streams.
		To Saudi Arabia, the holy cities of Makkah, the birthplace of Islam and the Prophet Muhammad, and Madinah, the Prophet's burial place, are a sacred trust exercised on behalf of all Muslims.

		The Saudis and the Americans arranged a meeting between Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and King Fahd during a visit by Rumsfeld to Saudi Arabia shortly before the beginning of the air war in Afghanistan, and pictures of the meeting were transmitted around the world.
		Saudi Arabia's strict interpretation of Islam, known as Wahhabism, and its use of mutawwa'in-religious police-to enforce prayer, is rivalled only by the Taliban's.
		And yet for years the Saudi princes-there are thousands of them-have kept tabloid newspapers filled with accounts of their drinking binges and partying with prostitutes, while taking billions of dollars from the state budget.

		On the day after the United States named 14 Saudis and a Lebanese national as suspects in the 1995 bombing at Al-Khobar, Saudi Arabia, in which 19 servicemen were killed, US troops in the Middle East were moved to Threat Condition Delta, the highest alert level.
		Thus, as long as Iranian officials are not named and the Saudis vehemently oppose the extradition of suspects in their custody, the case will remain as it was and is, analysts believe.
		The Saudi reaction to the indictment was swift.

		As Schwartz details, some in the Saudi royal family, an estimated 16,000 individuals, are notoriously dissolute and decadent in their private lives.
		What the Saudis didn't foresee was bin Laden's taking on the United States -- and that 15 of the 19 attackers on 9/11 would be Saudis.

		Saudi Arabia's Efforts to Improve Its Image in the U.S. Since the terrorist attacks of 9/11, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has engaged in public relations campaigns to counter misinformation in U.S. media and to improve its image among the American public.
		The Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia in Washington, D.C. created the ads that stressed the Kingdom's sympathy and compassion with Americans over the 9/11 attacks while also asserting Saudi Arabia's role as a steadfast ally of the United States, especially in the war on terror.
		In addition to print and radio ads Saudi Arabians -- government officials as well as business, media and academic leaders -- have visited various US cities to meet with civic groups, local media and other organizations, all in an effort to put a human face on US-Saudi relations.

	Documentation of Internet Filtering in Saudi Arabia
		If a user's requested URL is found on the Saudi fllist, the user is directed to a page that explicitly informs him or her that access to the site has been denied.
		In addition, Saudi Arabia was found to block sites recently reregistered after prior domain registrants allowed their domain registrations to lapse; many such sites come to provide sexually-explicit content, as documented in one author's prior Domains Reregistered for Distribution of Unrelated Content: A Case Study of "Tina's Free Live Webcam".
		However, the Saudi filtering system blocks access to megaproxy.com as well as a large number of other well-known proxy servers, suggesting that Saudi filtering administrators are well aware of this loophole and have sought to close it.

		Since the release of the men from a Saudi Arabian jail last summer, it's emerged that the Saudis were secretly using them as pawns in a bigger game - a game that for two of the men almost ended in a terrible death.
		Islamic extremists devastated western compounds in Riyadh, and even the Saudis could no longer pretend that the only acts of terrorism in their country were carried out by a handful of British expatriates.
		But the Saudis made it clear that it was just a pardon and as far as they were concerned the men were still guilty.

		Saudi Prince Mansour, the head of the government's election committee, said, "We do not say that women should not vote.

		For example, alcoholism is rare among Saudi Arabians, where obtaining alcohol is difficult and using alcohol is prohibited.

		Of course other effects are important, mainly the fact that a lot of Saudis now have gone into condition of retrospection, checking back on themselves, on their lives--to see how such an ignominious and horrific act could have been performed by people who call themselves Muslims--let alone people who carry the Saudi identity.
		And they communicate and they deal with Saudis from the day they leave their countries by going to get their visas and so on until they leave the kingdom at the airport when they see the last official as they get on their plane or ships.
