| Rumours have reached my redoubt here about a Westerner having been kidnapped in Khobar, but there is no confirmation in the Mainstream Media. Any thoughts ? |

"Any thoughts"?
I can't believe so far away from the black hole of Syria-Iraq that anything could happen in Saudi Arabia.That's sarcasm!
I'm surprised that Saudi Arabia has been so "peaceful" during this 2012-15 period. Though I'm sure ESL teachers are secure.
Good Lucky,

Me thinks the kidnappers later found out he was an EFL teacher that probably explains why it was a "bungled attempt" to kidnap him...so they most likely thought the ransom money they wanted for kidnapping him wasn't worth it at all  |

| Or they realised that he was an EFL teacher and decided that the chances were that he was insane, so they left him alone. Those touched by madness have a special status in the Faith. |
