Saudi government explains (yet again) its hosting of another Arab dictator

A Saudi official explains the decision (that will reinforce the image of Saudi Arabia as the asylum and refuge of Arab dictators) to host `Ali `Abdullah Salih.  He said that hosting "Yemenis who were hit in the clashes in Yemen" was due to "humanitarian motives."  The official added that funding Al-Qa`idah and chopping of heads in public squares were decisions that are also due to humanitarian motives.
