Protest Turns Deadly In Qatif As Saudis Use Live Ammo On Protesting Shi'ites
UPDATE: Video of the bloody reality tonight on Saudi streets.
Remember Qatif - the "weakest" Saudi authoritarian link, whose daily protests, many of them violent, threatened to topple the government last spring when soaring global food inflation set the MENA region on fire and led to the overthrow of numerous regimes in the Mediterranean rim? It's back, only this time not based on food price concerns, but inflamed religious tensions, arising from the arrest, and shooting, of a senior religious opposition figure, Shia cleric Ayatollah Al-Neme. As of minutes ago, Redha Al-boori reports on Twitter, that there have been at least two casuualties as a result of confrontation between Saudi forces using live ammo and protesting Shiites.
The Shia Post reports
"Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has shot injured and arrested Shia cleric Ayatollah Al-Nemer on Saturday 08 July 2012, the Shia Post reported.
According to received picture, injuries from which it can be assumed that the arrest was violent. Two weeks ago in his Friday sermon Shaikh Al-Nemer criticised Arab dictators in Saudi, Bahrain. He is well known for publicly criticising dictators. After the shot injures and arrest of Ayatullah Shaikh Al-Nemer, hundreds of Saudis Shiite Muslims took streets in Awamiah and Qatif for his release and protested against the KSA for the brutal attack on Shiite Cleric." The result: protests that have covered the entire city, and reports via Twitter of Saudi forces using live ammo to disperse those protesting.
Videos from Qatif posted moments ago:
And for those who prefer more 'credible' sources of reporting, here is Reuters.

The power elites have demonised Islam and fully intend for us slaves to die by the billions in a war between Christianity and Islam.
Once the slaves realise who their real enemy is, it's game over for the power elite.
meh, the muslims have demonized themswlves
Ahhh, you're being too hard on 'em. Give 'em another 1400 years or so, and maybe they'll figure out how to behave like civilized human beings. Maybe. In the meantime, there's scads of homos to hang, and adulterous sluts to stone, and cartoonists to stab.
ha, ha, yeah, I've studied their culture and it is rife with homosexuals as they segregate the men from the women, you just don't hear about it. Since 600BC they have been on a tear to take over the world.
the elites created militant islam just to suck the useful idiots in. well done for falling for it:
http://www.prisonplanet.com/5-facts-that-prove-radical-islam-is-a-child-of-american-british-israeli-intelligence.html
as far as being on a tear to take over the world... why don't you look up the number of U.S. military bases spread around the world... and then ask yourself exactly who or what is taking over the world.
yeah, their are some conspiracies, but not all.
believe what you want, but the evidence is plain to see. the saudi royal family are crypto zionists, and a growing number of their people have figured it out. their days are numbered. evidence? notice how Saudi, a purported militant islamic country buys massive amounts of U.S. arms... Oddly, Israel must sign off on these sales under U.S. law (a whole other ridiculous topic), and Israel always does.... wtf people.
Islam was started in 600BC before what you are saying is behind Islam. From it's start Islam has been out to conquer the world.
my comment was directed to militant islam, not islam generally. if you don't know the difference, you really should at least attempt to put some effort into learning the truth before you spout off.
BTW, how many countries has Iran, an islamic nation, invaded in the last 200 years? how about the U.S. or, if you prefer going back further... ever hear of the crusades? The nerve of those Islamic people trying to defend themselves... and here were are today, same as it ever was.

...not to mention the chutzpah of those Islamic people who sheltered their Jewish neighbors from the invading "christian soldiers".
you know, it never ceases to amaze me... we are living through the greatest instance of theft and mayhem that the world has probably ever experienced, all at the hands of a shadowing elite operating through a central banking system... perfectly obvious, and yet so many people fall for the red herrings that they throw out there... all bullshit to keep people from seeing who or what is really destroying civiliation. its not islam, true Isalm would never permit the central banking system... and yet so many americans, who are losing everything, are still ready to die fighting Islam because they think its taking over the world. it defies explanation.
It really does.. That's the hardest part I have with it.. It's so obvious and in plain sight.. and yet somehow, perfectly protected from the masses figuring it out. Ohh sure, there are a few of us that see it, but our numbers are small, very small..

Speaking of ''spouting off' without knowing what the fuck you're babbling about there, John ol' buddy....or your knee-jerk 'Crusades!' defense of islamic backwardness & barbarism - which is telling, BTW - ........
Care to explain for us ignernt unwashed rubes the meaning of "Al-Andalus"? Or why the years 732 and 1683 are hugely signifcant in the civilized world's dealing with islam?
civilized world? can you help me figure out where that is? I live in the U.S., and i know that ain't it..... btw, Islam hates christianity? want want to have a watch of this:

john39 asked:
For most of the period between the two dates specified, the "civilized world" consisted of China, India, and the Islamic middle east, while Europe foundered and flailed through the dark ages.
The fact that the same governments that declare war on Islamic countries that fail to kow tow to central bankers allow unfettered Islamic immigration into their own countries resulting in no go zones for the indigenous population is proof positive that the motive has nothing to with democracy, religious or sexual tolerance or liberal theology but agriculture and we’re the cattle.
Naw naw naw, Johnny me foine boyo - you don't get to hide behind your risible little screens of 'you're all corporate media puppets' and 'the Joooos secretly control most of islam, especially the Saudis, never mind how most of the royal family adheres to the "moderatre" doctrines of al-Wahhab.' This is ZH: baffling with bullshit don't work so well here.
So tell us, O wise knower of the True, Peaceful history of islam: Why did Charley Martel have to raise an army to fight the (islamic) moors at Tours/Poitiers in 732? Why was that? Who was the *invading* force, and who was the _defending_ force? Can you share with the class? Likewise, why'd the good folks of Austria have to butcher an invading army of (islamic) turks at the gates of Vienna in 1683? Again, who was attacking, trying to conquer an established country/people/religion, and who were the imperialistic, sheep-lovin' invaders? Why are the circumstances of these 2 seminal battles, 950 frickin' YEARS apart, so identical? Could it be because islam has but one goal: conquest & slaughter of all those not in their dark-ages-themed ("Stone the whores and heretics!" "Infidels, too!") little club?? Could that be it? 'Cause it sure seems that way, don't it?
For that matter, why'd El Cid and Pelayo and them have to kill the shit out of the (islamic) invaders of al-Andalus - now more commonly known as "Spain" - in order to get **their** country back from the (islamic) hordes who stole it from them? Golly...it sure SEEMS like we're looking at a pattern here, don't it? A long-term strategy?
Or would you like to keep glossing over the real tissue by squealing "Crusades!" and "Never mind the butchery of Darfur and Nigeria, or the rapes of Tahrir Square!!" until I tire of shredding your bullshit, and you can finally claim Victory over the Insolent Infidel with the troublesome knowledge of islamic history? I'm guessing you're gonna go with that one....but I could be wrong. Let's see, shall we?
world_debt_slave spewed this bullshit:
For someone who has "studied" Islam, you're pretty fucking retarded, as your founding date is off by 1200 years.
Also, the culture you describe above as full of homosexuals and segregating men and women is Saudi Arabian culture, not Islamic culture. If you had really ever taken the initiative to study Islam (beyond what you've learned from cartoons and talk radio), you'd know this.
LMAO 600BC (or BCE for you atheists). And their cartoons are funny, sometimes fatal.
my bad, I meant 600AD
Islam arose in 620-630 AD.
The Saudi royal family is first and foremost into self preservation. They will align with whatever entity will best assure that and since WWII that's been the US. But to say the Saudi's are crypto Zionists is a stretch even though Saudi interests are much more aligned with the Zionists than most of the other Islamists nations.
the information in the below link as resulted in at least a few beheadings in Saudi Arabia... such is the fear of those rulers:
http://www.pakalertpress.com/2011/03/09/zionist-rulers-of-saudi-arabia/
john39, I'm not so sure that the KSA royals are crypto-zionists; I think Israel and KSA share a fear of the Persians. The Persians may be currently using Shia Islam as a wedge, but they have a looooong history of wanting to rule the Middle East.
Well, how many middle eastern countries (excluding Israel) are organized enough to build and operate a real military base? They certainly couldn't build one outside of their own borders. Sure, they use what they call a military to attack their own civilian population, but they're not like a real military that can fight western armies.
They're excellent for parades and exterminating the political competition.
Lets call them a "special army".
There are loads of dopes on here.
This is mainly Shia versus Sunni and it has been going on for 1400 years. They will never forget either.
Shia biggest proponent is Iran and Sunni is the Saudi Royals. The U.S. is in the middle east to protect the Saudis and Israel. They are allies under the enemy of my enemy is my friend. These two are also the money behind all US TV including Mordeci's Saudia Fox.
Yes, and a great post, PaperBear. But the Empire fighting Islam shouldn’t be characterized as Christian. It’s between pseudo-Christians and Islam. If you are a true follower of Christ you don’t use drones to attack innocent people in order to wage war.
Oh and Christianity is peaceful? You are an idiot.
America is the country that installs and supports these dictators in the middle east. All in the name of ensuring supply of oil.
Now imagine if a foreign country placed bases on US soil - the Christians would be murdering and rampaging in minutes
Again you are an idiot
Oh and Christianity is peaceful?
It certainly is, compared to Islam.
You are an idiot.
And you, Tommy Gunner, are being silly.

Tianamen square. Enough to provide cover to the Saudis, friends to US citizens.
Remember Tianamen square. Tanks and all.
Avert eyes from Saudi Arabia.
AnAnonymous, founder and parangong of US citizenism, cackled:
You must be loving all of this, since you're such a big fan of the Tienanmen Square massacre of 1989.
It was a massacre, a blood bath.
The Saudis are hapless if they think they can match it.
How many killed and injured by the way?
But it is sworn, if the Saudis do one casualty than Tianamen Square mass killing, US citizens, from the US, Europe, Japan, will stand like one man and armed with their US citizen passion for truth, justice and freedom, will go and teach the Saudis the lesson of the natural rights. On their gold money, because gold is money and money is gold.
Fear thee, Saudis, the wrath of US citizens is about to strike if you kill one more than the Tiananem blood bath.
AnAnonymous asked:
In the Tienanmen Square massacre of 1989, according to AnAnonymous (founding father and number one patriot of US citizenism), the number of people killed and injured was "not enough".
spiegel says US drones killed another 20 in pakistan
"Die US-Armee hat in Nord-Waziristan mindestens 20 Menschen mit einer unbemannten Drohne getötet. Ziel war laut pakistanischem Geheimdienst ein Anwesen von Extremisten. Bei Anschlägen von Aufständischen in Afghanistan kamen mehr als 40 Menschen ums Leben."
Collateral damage for peace and democracy.
I'm wondering what the zionist press would write, if Syria or Iran would every day kill people in foreign countries. A fight for peace and freedom?
Lets see ,Bahrain has alot of ex-SAS types in their military. Sultan of Brunei,ditto... the Israeli Gov't sell security services everywhere Hmm.. Seems like they don't trust their own folks around the globe,palace revolts,etc. "Keep your friends close,and your enemies closer".
BEIJING (AP) — China's economy faces "huge pressure" to slow further despite stimulus measures, Premier Wen Jiabao said Sunday, damping hopes for a quick recovery from the deepest slump since the 2008 global financial crisis.

Trouble...it's a Global thing. As China slows down, watch Australian houses plunge in price as defaults keep rising is what The Daily Reckoning predicts from what I read.
The people of the world must unite under the banner of liberty and freedom to throw off the leaders and oppressors who wish to use The State solely for the advancement of their ill-gotten gain.
I'll stand arm in arm with anyone of any faith willing to make it happen. Insha'Allah
US citizens should restart an Abraham Lincoln brigade, with the ex militaries, all the guns...
US citizens missed the Tianamen Square slaughter.
They can make it for Bahrain marching tanks on their citizens and for the Saudis fireworks.
AnAnonymous, veering far astray from the path of sanity, said:
As the founding father of US citizenism, it is only proper that you should lead the way.
Saw a great bumper sticker on a car last week.
'Science flies you to the moon. Religion flies you into buildings.'
Couldn't. Agree. More.
Religion: Opiate of the masses for thousands of years. And still going strong.
One could say that planes are a product of science but hey, US citizenism has to do its propaganda job. Worshipping of science and all...
“Religion flies you into buildings”
Give me a break..
Genuine religion does not fly you into buildings, molest your children or make you drink Kool Aid.
Evil chemistry and psychosis does that..
just as central banking and secular progressive politics are a result of evil chemistry and are perpetuated by psychosis.
Very true manthong. but it's easier for the despotic to control those who have been indoctrinated into a religion. Amazing what the plebs will do in the name of Jesus or Allah .
Anger, desperation, and despair resulting from decades of brutal and hypocritical US foreign policy flies you into buildings.
All true. that’s the psychosis (false belief ) part.
It’s amazing what it will allow people to do.
Why, just this week there were people who believed that the global insolvency problem could be fixed with conventional political and central bank policy actions.
"Why, just this week there were people who believed that the global insolvency problem could be fixed with conventional political and central bank policy actions. "
In fact they can. Let market clean all up. Problem is, they will never do what is sane and necessary.
That's why it's important to not get all caught up and controlled by the human construct (filled with all sorts of man-made extranious garbage) called "religion". Now, a personal faith which sticks to the basics such as "Love God first and foremost, and love others as yourself", and applies those two things to ALL of one's practices and beliefs, (including politics) is something that can be positive for humanity.
RELIGION does NOT equal faith!
Its interesting.
So the shooting has started. Been wondering when that will be.
It started a while ago. Here's just one example...
"In 1979 internal revolt once again reared up in Saudi Arabia, as 500 dissidents seized the Grand Mosque in Mecca, claiming that Saudi Arabia had abandoned its traditionalist roots in favor of Western corruption. After two weeks of careful planning, the Saudi military overtook the dissidents, and all of the surviving male radicals were beheaded."

Atheism = opiate of the "my shit don't stink" crowd for 2,000 years.
I guess if you want to stick with that theme...
"Religion loads up ammonium nitrate into a van and parks it in an underground parking lot of a certain building down in Oklahoma"
I've read that in Pakistan they will take a young woman and marry her to the Koran and then put her away with just her and the Koran, for the rest of her life, no visitors, no company.
Man, that would suck!
You have obviously never slept with a Koran. Hot stuff.
I have. It's a rotten mentally ill relapsing sort of thing. Makes me think of the 2nd Sura. Luckily I only had to make that mistake once.
Catholic nuns are married to the dead Jew Jesus . They were often used as slave labor for select priest.
yep, Roman Catholicism is another one.

The dog?! Oh no! The poor dog will be left behind and soon fall into the clutches of Chinese citizenism citizens, who will incorporate the unfortunate creature into their fetching cuisine.

Bunch of Zionist brain washed sheeple comments allover the place!! I recall 3 Muslim countries that had a female president (Pakistan, Bangladesh and Indonesia). But the US till today never had a female president!! Aside from porn movies, you need another 1000 years to apply true female equality.
I hope they kill as many of them as possible.
Now this is pretty random saying.
Who kills who? Saudi kill their enemies, enemies kill Saudi, bankers kill people or people kill bankers?
But anyway, my viewpoint of killing - it is supported only in self-defence.
I wouldn't buy that religious violence propaganda . Corruption is usual cause for mass violence . A despotic kingdom controlling the wealth of e region by torture and religious propaganda . With the help of the USA . Until the breaking point is reached.
No the usual reason are ETHNIC problems in the multicultural paradises all around the world. Religious preferences mostly can be found along ethnic groups.
The globalist MSM are hiding the roots by reporting "religious clashes", or "riots", while they hide the ethnic background. This wouldn't be politically "correct". The riots in Paris or London, Sydney or in many cities of the USA are not religious or social riots. These are only the symptoms. The foundation is the inequality of the people while the monstrous lie of equality forces different ethnics to live together.

...or blame everything on Assad.
the usa supplies the personnel for the saudi royal family security force....these brutal murders are being orchestrated and managed by cia and other bush crime syndicate criminals...
The Shia and Sunni have been killing each others with neverending zeal 1300 years before the CIA or the Bush klan. My guess is they will still be doing this 1500 years after I type this. I am somewhat shocked by ZH readers ignorance about the Shia and Sunni.
My question is will the U.S. remain consistent and insist on helping the oppressed people or will they continue to support the regime? I think I already know the answer to that question.
Dr. Engali asked:
Ha ha, I see what you did there. Good use of a trick question.
The US will remain consistent and continue to support the regime in its oppression.
Here, I got halfway down the posts before I got stupid-burns, so here, let's kick it up a notch.
Meanwhile, Egyptian authorities ar reporting nightly temperature rises in the temperature of the pyramids at Giza. Additionally, low-level seismographs have detected an intermittent but steady approx. 4.20hz hum in the Giza area. The Saudis keep talking about "The Ambassador is coming! The Ambassador is coming!"
That would be: Ambassador Rumsfeld, and his orbital lightcraft, the USS Jeb Bush.
The saudis are not crypto-zionists. They are just low-level red shirted star fleet field officers on assignment.
And Amabassador Rumsfeld is coming.
Libya: Voting Turnout in Libya above 60 percent, Liberals in Lead
Voters’ turnout in Libya has reached above 60 percent in the Libyan elections on Saturday or over 1.6 million voters in total.

Get long crude now.
The common ground is ever farther from reach, yet reaching some common ground is the only thing which can save us, WE ARE the trained to the interactive technology people, ( many, young, people are already more comfortable interacting with computer programing than they are with flesh and blood people), some primitives may survive and reseed mankind in the World again who knows? But we will all be gone with the grocery store, modern portions of humanity cannot exist without society.
TPTB owe their positions to the pecular way society allocates resources, in this Technological World, if the disaster of societal collaspe should befell us the PTB, like all of us, will find themselves naked in a World they have never seen before and are totally ignorant of.
Hubris loses it's charm when it becomes patently ridiculous, there are many forces in the World which can cause great damage, (enough to collaspe society, I'm sure), yet no one has sufficient power to vanquish the foe unscathed, the price of winning is~ everyone losing~ no one wants to lose but the next best thing to winning is knowing your foe is dying too.
We have to forget the concept of "Winning" and embrace the concept of "Not Losing" strangely by not losing everyone wins, by "Winning" everyone loses".
So would now be a bad time to buy that SUV I've had my eye on that gets 3 miles per gallon?
I'd wait a while Bud! Lets see if things can settle down, or, is the Black Swan about to fly?
I don't know if we could correctly call this a black swan because the middle east has been a powder keg for, oh, 5000 years or so? So we can't really say its unexpected. But something is going fly, and lets hope it doesn't hit the fan...
The Mursi visit will fix everything. They wannnnnnntttttt peaceeeeeeeeeee.......
Many Posters seem to think, Advocating War, is the proper response and what society wants, so all Loyal citizens should advocate and applaud War, and willingly hate the groups they are urged to hate, I understand it, it feels good to belong, and belonging is the only goal for many, if there ever was a time for those people who can, to exercise their own critical thinking that time is now, I don't think we can change anything but at least your eyes are open to reality. All the best to all!
What bullshit
Who cares if the Saudis shoot a few Shittites. The more Muslims are killing other Muslims, the better off the rest of us are. I'd like to see a nice Islamic civil war between the Sunnies and the Shittites that kills 50% of their total population.
Why?
Probably because the Shia and Sunni have been killing each other non stop for 1400 years. It makes the Catholics and Protestants hatred and battles in N Ireland look tame.
Looks like NWO will need some more US mercenary troops to provide peace (kill) for the elite. How much do we have to pay for the Saudis helping Bush blow up the World Trade Centers?
Guns don't kill people: Gun users kill people.
Religion doesn't kill people, State sponsered religions kill people.
Militant Shite dogma is spewed out by Iran and militant Sunni dogma is spewed out by the KSA creating a cesspool of psycopaths.
Muslims must take their religion back from the self centerd zealots funded by the IRI and the KSA. All GOD accepting peoples are fully aware that GOD is compassionate and forgiving NOT ill willed and revengeful. They need to speed up the process that the Catholics and Protestants carried out after centuries of slautering each other in the name of their false prophet state sponsered GOD imageries.
work is obsolete; the $$ boyz are trying to flush out some "growth" but really, its done. The Greek retirees at at 30 aren't misguided: they are futurists
People saying islam is the root of all evil have never been in any islamic country. Period.
And they forget easily women die every day in the deep south beaten by their alcohoolic retarded consanguine husband, but are shocked when foxnews present them a fake, or say manipulated video of a woman lapidation in deep Afghanistan as an evidence we should attack in the name of freedom.
It's depressing really, how some trivial news item is used to engineer hate against a whole world.
I mean, imagine a muslim newspaper comipling random cases of wives murder, children murder, canibalism, pedophilia in our countries (that shouldn't take more than a few minutes given the abundance of them) and presenting that as being the western world.
People fail for the same things as in the 19th century, few have waken up, really too few.
No one is going to 'Wake Up' Stormy, waking up is not patriotic. Following orders is, watch your TV, do and think what you are told, that is the best way to survive! We should all strive to Keep our heads down and follow the crowd!
