Not real?

Hmmm...Yousef, are you typing from the KSA or from the UAE? Anyway, if you are truly reading this from within Saudi borders, then you are "one of the elite," b/c the rest of the public sector doesn't have access to this website, so right from the start gate, you are biased, b/c you are a privileged elite who have enough money to bypass the Saudi internet security protocols. That said...

I am from the USA, and I will tell you that I am biased against Saudi, b/c I am a US female that a Saudi prince, who was in the US on "business," asked me to come back to the KSA with him. As I'm certain you well know, if you are truly Saudi, that Saudi princes do not accept, "no" for an answer, especially from a woman. He sent members of his staff to follow me everywhere I went to convince me to say, "yes." They offered me money, clothes, a lavish life, etc. etc. I will not tell you how the story ends, b/c it is my story and I never tell it! Not ever. This is all I ever tell of it, but be rest assured, Yousef, that the Saudi's take women out of the USA as well as bring them in. They are vile, greedy, varmints, bottom feeders of society that need to be exposed for who and what they are.

That there are good Saudi's, yes, I agree with you, there are, very much so. I have met them also. But the family spoke of in this article were not those Saudi's. They are the greedy ones of whom you speak. They were able to come to the USA b/c they had money, and you know as well as I do that the only Saudis that come to the USA have money, and the only way a Saudi has money is b/c he has been favored by the Royals in business, education or by servitude. This family was NOT the average Saudi family.
