TEL AVIV – The Saudi press slammed the U.S. for its “despicable” double standard in regard to a proposed bill that would allow victims of the September 11 attacks to sue the kingdom, claiming that the move would “open the gates of hell,” enabling all countries that have been wronged by the U.S. to sue it for war crimes.
The popular Saudi daily Okaz ran a scathing article translated by MEMRI, entitled, “Congress’s Satanic Deed Opens the Gates of Hell for the World’s Largest Country,” accompanied by an image of President Obama with a Star of David and the emblem of the Iranian regime on his forehead.
Proclaiming that the bill proves that there “is no justice or morality in American politics,” the article accuses the U.S. of bypassing international law, which stipulates that countries are immune from legal proceedings in other states.
The U.S. Senate exhibited the most despicable kind of double standard, defied the [whole] world, and showed contempt for international law when it passed a bill allowing families of the September 11 victims to sue Saudi Arabia. This bill will change the international law regarding sovereign immunity, which has long been implemented. The Senate failed to understand that, by adopting this bill, it will open many doors for harming the U.S. [itself], because this bill will enable countries that have been harmed by the U.S. to sue it for war crimes.

wow such a tolerant country sounds like another threat,Seize there assests.
Saudi Daily is absolutely correct.When in doubt stand outside of our country and look in.See us like the rest of the world sees us.If you still see the US in a really favorable light,repeat the process.Seriously,who the heck do we think we are?
And then when they sell all their US bonds we plunge into a crisis.....
good ridden to them. Now that the US has the largest reserves of oil we do not have to let them to continue to screw us. This bill makes sense and glad we did not let them bully us to not pass it.
I wondered back when they bombed the twin towers our country didn't go after them and just take their oil. But no, they went after their lacky's, the Taliban. Sort of like going after the drug dealer on the street and pretending the bigger supplier doesn't exist.
