Division in the Kingdom

By Joe Katzman on January 5, 2004 7:49 AM | 3 Comments

Thomas Nephew of Newsrack has returned to blogging, and his "Al Qaedists at war with top Saudis (some of them, anyway)" is worth your time. He discusses the recent assassination attempts against Saudi officials, and links them to the political struggle underway in Saudi Arabia. Lots of good material. Gary Farber of Amygdala adds depth to Nephew's work with a very detailed post about this internecine struggle: "Know Your Enemy". Amygdala is a very good blog indeed, and if you could help Gary out it would be appreciated.

Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:

*This* puts text in bold.

_This_ puts text in italics.

bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.

To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.
