mobilized troops and promises of social investment King Abdullah try to prevent an uprising in Saudi Arabia
$ 36 billion for education, employment and welfare, so is prepared to spend the King Abdullah Al-Saoud, the last absolute monarch in the world, to avoid having to deal with anger of his people, who, inspired by the recent upheavals North Africa, Jordan, Yemen and Bahrain, have called for new demonstrations on Friday.
Always view to 'defuse' advance the dissent, we must interpret the news that 27 Shiites arrested in recent protests in Al-Qatif were released without further charge a very amicable decision for a country where political opposition is open to the Princely House would normally be punished as 'Treason' and as 'an offense against God', given the claims of the Saudi king to embody, as guardian of the two major Muslim holy sites, the prerogatives of a modern Caliph.
In an attempt to "good" does not unmount the protest in the bud, King Saoud, however, continue to mobilize thousands of soldiers and militiamen of the security forces.
