Saudi Arabian citizens have faced increasing arrests for criticising Israel on social media in recent months as a result of its ongoing military onslaught against Gaza.
According to Bloomberg, one detainee was an executive involved in Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman’s economic development initiatives including the kingdom’s Vision 2030.
Another reportedly urged Saudi citizens to boycott American brands operating in the Gulf kingdom as well as a media figure who said Israel should never be forgiven.
This crackdown coincides with ongoing efforts by the United States to facilitate the normalisation of ties between Riyadh and Israel.

I’m glad I live in the United States where no gets arrested for criticizing Israel. Now to take a big sip of water and catch up on the news.
Saudia Arabia doing Israel’s bidding was certainly not on my 2024 bingo card. Where is this coming from?
The attack was to delay these talks
They want American weapons to suppress their population. Arabs do not like the Saudi monarchy whatsoever.
Saudi hosts a lot of American military bases. Saudi also wants American defense guarantees. There was quite a line of tamed dogs leading Saudi but then Saudi King Faisal came and stood up to the israelis in 73’.
The 1973 Arab–Israeli War, also known as Yom Kippur War and Ramadan War, took place between 6 to 25 October. It left a tumultuous mark in world history with the “First Oil Shock”- when the then-Arab world, led by Saudi King Faisal imposed an oil embargo on the West.
Faisal got assassinated two years later.

How is every powerful nation backing genocide right now? What the fuck is this?
They always have.
Funny how Nazi Germany was being obliterated by non fascist nations, but now the same ones are supporting the same regime a little southeast.
Take these… antisemites winks to prison where they belong
