Saudis: No Jews Welcome
(AP/Newsday)- A Saudi website by the Supreme Commission for Tourism that offers a new program to encourage more foreign visitors lists four groups not entitled to visas, including "Jewish People." In addition, the website says it will refuse visas to anyone with an Israeli passport or a passport that has an Israeli stamp. Rep. Anthony Weiner said Thursday, "It is very difficult to see the Saudis as anything other than a backward country with backward ideals....The administration should take a hard look at this website and decide whether a country that has these policies should be considered our ally." Weiner said the U.S. should close its doors to Saudis until they "clarify" their policy.
