Run and hide

So a Saudi student allegedly killed professor Richard Antoun. So what does Saudi media do? Deny that he was a "sponsored" Saudi student, whatever that means. Just like after Sep. 11, Saudi government denied that the 15 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia. Of course, the deed of one killer or 15 hijackers should not be blamed on the Saudi people, although blame can be pinned on the Saudi government and its ruling ideology which produced--with the full support of the US during the Cold War--the likes of Bin Laden.
