I speak here today as a foreign policy analyst (Director of CANAUK) & n…ot
as general secretary of Employees Representatives, an independent public
service trade union.
My first contact with the community was in the mid 1980’s when I worked in
Riyadh.
The Bicycle Roundabout Jeddah. Near that particular roundabout was an
underground Christian church. Underground because as you know all Christian
churches of whatever type are banned in the KSA.
One day the metowah descended upon this Church. I will call it “the lost
church”.
Its Eritrean worshipers were arrested, held by the Saudis & then, I assume,
deported, back to an Eritrea still in a state of war. This was only one of
innumerable human rights violations by the KSA _at_ that time & which continue
up to the present day. Of course there was an immediate diplomatic protest
from the US & UK – or was there? Not a squeak.
For years Western powers have kept quiet about the continuing reign of
terror in Saudi Arabia, the slave state, where torture is endemic, where
human rights not least for women simply do not exist, Saudi Arabia with
Qatar, in the vanguard of democracy for Syria!! For More Clik link
