Palestinian ,   Khobar, Saudi Arabia   (09.09.06)
Dear God, Please free us from the brutal, corrupt, hypocritical, fanatical, un-islamic HOUSE OF SAUD.... These people are out to milk the land and take their people back to the STONE AGE!!!! This country should be the richest and most respected in the world, but in actual terms it it a DISGRACE! instead of attacking dogs and cats they could improve their F+ucked up education system and initiate some kind of scientific community, enough eating KABSA all day and sleep... -Frustrated Palestinian

So do I. In fact, I have five of them. But there's another story about Mohammed and his cat, and it's that on one occasion when he was meeting with some of his followers, his cat fell asleep on the hem of his robe. Then when the meeting was over and the cat was still sleeping, rather than disturb the cat, he took a knife and cut off the bottom of his robe so that the cat wouldn't be awakened. So, why we might wonder, would his followers have that negative attitude toward cats? I guess they feel if the infidels keep cats as pets, there must be something evil about it. How ridiculous.

When you start valuing Palestinians Rights and treat them with with humanity then you can talk about animals.

45. #38 Sammy .
ERIC,,, ,   ISRAEL   (09.09.06)
The article is about Saudi Arabia.Then the rest of what you write is alot of crap.The Palestinians did vote,they voted for a terrorist government and thats what they got. There government steal money that is for there basic needs.They buy nice cars,nice houses,eat well,tarvel all over the place.They put the money that the world gives them in French banks or Swiss banks.They teach there kids how to hate,how to wear bombs and blow up human beings.So pal you focus on the truth.
46. 38: Incorrect & unrelated
Ehud ,   Israel   (09.09.06)
Work: Palestinians are free to work. In most times even some in Israel, despite the situation. Even if they weren't allowed, isn't this their own responsibility? Are you blaming France for German unemployment? Live in peace: They are very much allowed. See how well they're doing in Gaza now. If only they wanted that instead of attacking Israel we would all be in better shape. Eat: Uh... what? Vote: They vote to their own government. Prisoners: I don't know how many prisoners there are, but they are there for a reason. I believe there are some minors too, but definitely not 50% -- funny how numbers tend to grow. And do you suggest attacking Israelis be allowed under the age of 18? Relevance: How is that related to Saudi cats & dogs? Is it not allowed to report on anything but Palestinians?

50. To Snoopy: JIHAD ON DOGS
Garfield ,   Feline Township, USA   (09.10.06)
Of course the Saudis should ban dogs. They piss on firehydrants, lick their balls in public and are dirty infidels. Worthy of a fatwa.
51. #33 Saudi Arabia does not approve of what G-D CREATES
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (09.10.06)
But who will dare to destroy what G-D has created?

53. THEY THREATEN OUR SPOTTED BRETHERN?

JIHAD ON THE SAUDIS!
54. It's All About Control
Rita ,   USA   (09.10.06)
....to stifle even the joy that pets can bring to human beings. This is more than about dogs and cats, its about the Islamic need to control every thought and emotion, every piece of clothing and every utterance-- to crush the individual spirit. This is an example of societal control that leads credence to the word "Islamofascist". It also came out of Saudi this week that they were thinking of banning women from Mecca--they seem to be on quite a roll in thinking up new and interesting ways to apply their foot to peoples' necks. Lucky us, in the US--the State Dept. just quintuppled the number of student visas from Saudi Arabia. Talk about suicidal ideology.
55. #31, Marhaba, Saudi are no friends of Jews
David ,   Boston, USA   (09.10.06)
Enemy of my enemy isnt my friend. Hezbollah, Saudi government, Saudi Mullahs, none are my friends. My friends are people who believe in truth, justice, and tolerance, and I dont include Eurabia as part of that. The only thing I like about Saudis is swift justice.
56. Next week they are banning breathing!
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (09.10.06)
Some nasty American or Jew took a breath downwind, and no honorable Muslim can now breath the air because of the awful Western influence. Imagine if it was Western flatulation. They might have to behead the poor unclean Muslim!
57. 38# When your terrorist buddies quit acting like animals---
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (09.10.06)
maybe we will be able to treat them like they are human. Until then---they have a lot of work on social skills and social interaction. Haven't you heard," Don't bite the hand that feeds you.?
58. LONG LIVE DOGS AND CATS!
WOOF ,   SOMEWHERE   (09.10.06)
Gee they really have their priorities mixed up, they have too much time on their hands, and obviously not enuf to do, maybe we should bring them here and they cud patrol the streets to ensure that people observe the road rules...that would definately keep them busy. To our palestinian friend comparing animals to the Pali plight..I dont know if U have heard this..but a dog is mans best friend, and he is loyal too..wheres the comparison..u people are not even loyal to your own..leave the article re dogs and cats to just that..dont incite it with political jabberwocky...!!
59. the hadith says you must kill dogs and cats

60. #59 Who will dare to Kill and DESTROY what G-D has CREATED?
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (09.11.06)
Bible, Genesis 1:1 In the beginning G-d created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:25 G-d made the beasts of the earth...and G-d saw that it was good.
