Private U.S. Citizens Urged to Leave Saudi Arabia
MyWay| RuetersThe State Department on Thursday "strongly urged" private U.S. citizens to leave Saudi Arabia as it announced plans to order some U.S. diplomats out the country because of security concerns.
"Private American citizens currently in Saudi Arabia are strongly urged to depart," the State Department said in a travel advisory after it decided to send nonessential U.S. diplomats and all embassy family members home.
This is after Bin Laden promises safety to those who leave the Middle East. I don't mean to critisize the state departments warnings, but I think it makes a point about the couragousness of the decision and along with the unity of Europe to ignore Bin Ladens offer.
