Subject : Experience working with Saudi Oger

In 1996, I was working at the King Khalid International Airport (alias "KKIA") for Saudi Oger Ltd. They were not making any money on their Operations and Maintenance Contract (still aren't), so they resorted to money laundering, murder, and dealing in contraband in the local black market. My contract was terminated at the 90-day point when I reported to the government that my supervisor was always coming to work drunk/drugged, dealt in the same, and was not trained professionally to do what he'd been assigned to do. Well, rather than investigate him (Jerry Berg--if that was in fact, his real name), they told him what I'd reported to them. Shortly after that, I was processed to go home. Jerry Berg's "gang" (Norman Soto, etc.) then disabled my car--to keep me in the compound. Seems that the brother of the Prime Minister of Lebanon (half owner of Saudi Oger Ltd) was bringing a team of "engineers" to determine why the Contract was in trouble. Jerry (Jerome L. Berg), the self-mental legend that he was, feared I'd say something about all the graft and corruption going on at Saudi Oger. Just prior to the PM of Lebanon brother's visit, Saudi Oger had an industrial accident which killed one worker, and seriously injured two others. I was shocked by this incident, and Jerry knew it. This may have been why he had my car disabled. The first day I arrived there, Jerry took me to his villa and offered me drugs, and alcohol. He said he could "get me whatever I wanted." His entire villa was filled with alcohol brewing gear. Imagine my shock. We'd all signed a "Statement of Understanding" for the Saudi Govt. That agreement, if broken, was punishable by jail and/or death. Seems that once inside the Saudi Oger compound, that agreement wasn't worth the paper it was written on. We had much of the management at KKIA coming to work drugged/hung over from nightly parties within the compound. Eventually, Saudi Oger had to reassign most of them to different contracts to avoid losing the KKIA contract. Their contraband dealings and illegal activities could only be tolerated to a certain extent. Shortly after I left, there was a double murder at KKIA. Seems the wife of one of the Saudi Oger employees was going to go to the Saudi Govt. with her evidence of Jerry's gang's activities. Both she and her husband were murdered for this.

There is much more to tell if you want to hear it (CIA moles within Saudi Oger, Saudi Oger contraband dealings at the US Air Force Dining Facility, etc.)

Let me know. Just remember:

Don't work for a Saudi-based company. You are safer to work for a US company that is operating over there. At least you'll stand a better chance of not being cheated out of money, benefits or
your life.

Subject : Kidnapping of Saudi children

Dear Sirs and Mesdames!

 

I applaud your attempts to make Saudi Arabia join other civilized nations by coming into the twentieth century. What I would like to know is: How do you feel about the repatriation of small children unlawfully stolen from their custodial mothers in the US (or any other country) by Saudi non-custodial fathers, with the knowledge, encouragement, and complicity of the official kidnapping arm of the Saudi Government, i.e., Saudi Arabian Airlines?

 

My daughter, age 5, was kidnapped on August 13, 1998, by her fanatical Wahhabi father--contrary to both US and Saudi laws. Islam specifically forbids the kidnapping of the innocent. It also states that a girl child remain with her mother until puberty. Furthermore, Islam seriously condemns anyone who drives a rift between a child and its mother. My daughter MACHAEL HEIDI AL-OMARY, has also been illegally separated from her sister, brother, stepdad, stepbrothers, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and her baby niece. By the way, the kidnapper left here owing over 12,000 dollars in child support. I believe Islam makes it a requirement for a father to support his children (which this one never did while here in the USA). Shame on him and his entire nation for allowing this travesty to be perpetrated on the smallest victims of Saudi abuses of human rights.

 

You can read my daughter's story on countless web pages fro missing children by typing "Heidi Al-Omary" in any search engine, such as Metacrawler or Web Ferret, Euroseek, etc. Our own web page for our child is called "Heidi's Hope" at

 

http://www.insolwwb.net/~dmcclain/

Your Minnesota Lawyers' web page did not mention anything about the Hague Convention or the declaration on the Rights of the Child, both UN documents. In my child's case, I had written to the Saudi Embassy, Prince Bandar, and various Saudi Airlines officials before the kidnapping. I have return receipts for Registered and Certified mail to prove that these entities received my letters. I sent all document relating to my child (custody decree, etc.), and made clear to these people that issuing my child any foreign documents on US soil or allowing my child to leave the US would be a serious crime. Prince Bandar knew the situation, as did the highest levels of Saudi Airlines. With the help of my then brother-in-law, Samir Al-Jawdat, a cabin steward for Saudia; my ex-husband's cousin Faridah Al-Ghofaily and her husband Solomon Al-Hedaithy (high position in Saudi Dept of Interior/National Guard); and his American wife Jayne Brussel Smith (who is still here), the kidnapper was able to get away with my baby girl.

 

What I would like to know about legal recourse is this: Many law firms have turned me down on this request, and that is to bring a suit against Saudia Airlines in the amount of a billion or so dollars to teach them a lesson about the kidnapping of American children. This would further embarrass the Saudi government to the extent that they might be inclined to negotiate the release of my child who is a virtual hostage. Furthermore, it would cause untold problems for my ex-husband's family, as they would be blamed for and held responsible for a negative judgment against the Saudi government. Are there any lawyers in Minnesota or anywhere in the country who would have the fortitude to take such a case against Saudi Airlines on a contingency fee basis? If so, please let me know immediately, as I am at the end of my rope. Some victims have been left with the impression that I cannot sue a foreign government; however, a legal firm from Chicago told me that this does not apply if the government entity being sued is actually run for profit like a corporation. Obviously, this is true of Saudia Airlines. Furthermore, the proof of this can be found on Saudi Airlines very own web site, where the phrases Saudia's new "corporate identity" and other such phrases jump off the page at the reader.

 

There are several other American victims who might join this lawsuit; Lonnie Smrkovski who has been mentioned on the SaudHouse web pages; Maureen Dabbagh; Pat Rousch; Kristine Uhlmann; Dawn DiBenedetto; and Jennifer Martin of my own state might be interested in fighting the Saudis. I know that Jennifer, mother of 6-year-old kidnap victim, Hatam Al-Shabrami, is interested. Please don't say no. Please help us get our kids back. There are so many law firms in the US who seem to have some connections with the Saudis or companies that do business in Saudi Arabia that you are about my last hope at obtaining representation.

 

I want to make so much noise over this situation--there are over 2000 US children and 10000 other foreign children being held hostage in the Kingdom and by the Kingdom. To my mind, it is an Ambassador's job to help his countrymen when they are on foreign soil, but not to help them commit criminal acts. It is the Ambassador's job to maintain good relations with foreign countries by requiring his subjects to abide by the laws of that foreign country. Well, Bandar has fallen down on the job--so he should be called neither an Ambassador nor a Prince. Such titles of respect are unworthy of the man, don't you think?

 

Yet the likes of Bill Clinton, Norman Schwarzkopf, G. Gordon Liddy, and others have had the pants charmed off of them by this guy, or by his lavish parties, or by his money. Of course, Clinton's campaign has been financed by foreign interests, including the Saudis. Schwarzkopf's reputation and career were "made" by his connections to the higher ups in the Saudi government.

When we victims of Saudi hostage-taking approach Bandar, we are always rebuffed. Our letters, e-mails, and faxes always go unanswered. He isn't much of a man if he fears the words of grieving mothers and grandmothers.

Yours truly,

Margaret McClain

Subject : King Faisel Hospital

Hello i am considering work at King Faisal Research Hospital in Riyadh as a health care professional, I am a single male.

I am writing because I need more information on whether I can expect to be secure there, I get the feeling that I should be as careful of the Saudi system as of the possible fanaticism.

Am curious if I live in the city as I understand single males do, if I walk down the street what level of danger would I be in.

I understand there are 50,000 Americans there.

I'm torn because I am intrigued by the adventure, but leary of the security and restrictions.

The money is roughly one-third more than I make here and they pay for housing, intially I was expecting quite a larger salary, but I could just use more information about the possible benefits and problems of being there 2 to 4 years.

Can you help?

Sincerely Yours/Salem Alekum,

Michael MS PT

Dear Michael:

You should not worry a bit about working in Saudi Arabia. The country has its charms and could be very enlightening. The thing you need to be concerned about is to abide by the laws and rules some of which are set to keep the purest of interpretation of Koran intact. The most cumbersome laws that westerners feel uncomfortable with are :

1) No drinking

2) No dating or sexual conduct unbecoming of a very conservative society.

3) No political activities whatsoever.

Also, smaller rules may interfere in your daily routine which you will get used to but 1/3 more salary and some tax benefits may be worth it. That is your call.

Hope we have been of help.

Dear Writers:

I am a U.S. Moslem man married to a Saudi woman by the name of Majda Aldainy the daughter of Ahmed Aldainy (previously named Bakadam). They have taken my two year old son, Rakan Saulisbury to Jeddah and have had me jailed in the U.S. for the last forty days for "depriving a spouse of parental rights" when I had tried to keep from losing my son on a permanent basis. They also wrote my marriage contract in Arabic which I could not understand and placed my children under the control of Ahmed Aldainy Bakadam. They have taken actions against me which are clearly against Islamic doctrine. Please refer me to any persons, agencies, ministries or other entities who may be able to assist me in my plight. Any names, telephone numbers, addressess, etc. would be greatly appreciated particularly those of the Mutawwi'un and the Ministry of Justice or other court system applicable to Jeddah. I understand that she is now divorcing me in Jeddah so that I will never see my son again. Also, I understand that her father, Ahmed Aldainy, of Jeddah is paying thousands of dollars to keep me in jail or kill me in the United States.

Subject : Re: women of Islam and sport

Faud I hope that you are well.  I received your message regarding women in  Islam and sport.  It saddens me to think that there are so many women out  there who are so willing and able to participate in sport and represent  their countries yet they are unable to do so because of others who govern   them. One of my graduate instructors and I were speaking the other day on this   topic and she knows of a woman who runs a sports club for women in  Kuwait.   I have been trying to get in touch with her to see how she and  her staff are received in that environment but I have been unsuccessful. She also informed me that the first all Islamic womens "olympic"  competition was held this year.   It was successful, yet no men were  allowed to spectate or attend in any way.   I thought that was interesting   and inspiring.   Also I have some information, although not complete, on the Atlanta +  movement that basically was a movement put together by some women in  Europe that was to force boycotts to the olympics in Atlanta from all  countries that would not allow their women to participate.  Although it  was not successful, it is a start. I have been a gifted athlete all of my life.  I have had opportunities to  travel and meet friends that I will have until I pass on.  I really would  never trade those things and experiences for anything.  I even met my  husband on the soccer field.  I am currently coaching womens soccer at a  college here in California. I really am thankful to you for contacting me and sharing with me.  I  truly hope that women will get more chances in time to come. Please feel free to contact me anytime.  I am very curious on your  progress.  Take good care of yourself Lisa

Subject : Greetings

I would like to congratulate you  on your great work.   Personally, I think  that positive change to the Arab world could only come from "Arabia"  (not  "Saudi Arabia"). This is due to the fact that our people in Arabia have long  languished under the most oppressive, backward, and corrupt rulers in our   history.  In proportion to their oppression, the anger will build till there  will be no way to contain its tide. I salute you as the vanguard of the  uprising that is sure to come.  However, I have some strong disagreements  with what I think is the general  premise of your philosophy.  In your writings you assume that the house of  Saud controls its own destiny and actions.  I think that in this way you are  giving too much credit to a punch of ignorant greedy thugs who have been  hired by the western oil companies to serve their interests and those of  Israel.  Whether they work for the CIA or the Mossad is immaterial. The  important point is that due to our not so distant history, such agencies  will always be able to find a replacement to such thieves.   The real enemies to Arabia and the other Arabic countries are the oil   companies and other business conglomerates whose huge profits and interests   will be hit hard by the establishment of a truly democratic system in our area.   If I may presume to advice you (Ahlu Makkata Aalamo be-shi-abeha), I think   that you should give more or equal emphasis as in your present activity to   explain to the American people about the corruption and anti-democratic   practices of their companies and government agencies in Arabia..  In   addition, the message that the American government is silent to the degree  of complaisance about corruption and human rights violations in Arabia  should be driven home to the American public and to their representatives in  Congress. 

Dear xxxxxxx

Once in a while we get an e-mail like yours that is a joy to read and so logical in its structure.

I do not think there is anything I can argue with you except on one point. The agencies may find a replacement with one goal in mind : the cheap flow of oil. The fact that al-saud are corrupt is our bad luck. How about giving cheap oil to the West but at the same time get a dignified leader who will promote goodwill and democratic values in accordance with our teachings and religion amongst his people. This may be too much asking for now, but we are heading in the right direction. Even oil companies are discovering that now that Saudi Arabia is broke, we need to build a market economy and a NEW emerging market in the Middle East so that standards of living are higher and everyone can benefit again through another cycle of cash outflow.

The questions are : Does the fact that the Middle East is the birthplace for the three most important religions in the world accept the notion of an emerging market which means unity ? Does the US which boycot 5 countries in the Middle East (Cuba and North Korea the other two) want higher standards of living as proposed to be the real goal for peace between Israel and the Palestinians ? Does the fact that the Middle East houses 15% of personal wealth in the world require a market economy or can we let the Goldman Sachs of the world just operate the way they have in the last few years by recycling the princes and the sheikhs personal oil Dollars back into different economies ? There may be inherent resistance to a new emerging Middle East market but that is our only hope to move from Asr Al-Inhitatiya to Asr Al-Wai'i or Asr Al-Daou'. 

Enjoyed your e-mail tremendousely and thank you for your kind words and support.

Permit me to introduce myself.  My name is Mohammed Al Khilewi.  I am a former Saudi diplomat to the United Nations. I defected in 1994 and I have been working against the Saudi government since then.  Please tell me a little about your committee and what you have been doing since you started.  I myself carried a whole international campaign against the Saudi government trying to bring some kind of democracy to the country.

Dear Mohammed :

We remember very well the campaign you undertook. Amongst many of the dissidents, you created the most damage.

However, it did die down so quickly. What happened ? Many in the Saudi community feared one of two things : personal harm to your self or even worse Bandar found a way through pressure to silence you. 

Do you still have the documents you claimed you had ? Are you still interested in bringing real change to Saudi Arabia ?

Subject : Re: Saudi Arabia and its corruption 

Dear Mr. Fahd Al Saud and C A C S A ,

Thank you for your e mail.  I'm happy to tell you that I have not been physically harmed even though there were personal threats to my life.   Bandar has tried many times to buy me off by offering millions but my principles are not for sale.  He has come to me in many forms, through the FBI, through independent consultants and even through other Middle Eastern governments.  God has been with me and has given me the perception to see through all these phony facades.

To answer your question, my campaign did not die but  my tactics have been altered.  Based on my experience with many journalists, working through the media is not always the best way to achieve ones goals.   Sometimes the underground activities are more fruitful.  I still have a lot of documents and I am keeping the door opened to publish them in my book or in another appropriate manner.

Please tell me where you are, what you are doing and what your present position is in the family or otherwise.  What has your organization accomplished to date?  Please forward your phone and fax numbers.

With all due respect, I'm sure you realize that the opposition does not like to deal with any member of the royal family after the sad experience in the sixties with Prince Talal and his brothers.  As for myself, I don't agree with that 100% especially since King Faisal was killed by one of his own nephews.

In any event, I am looking for more cooperation with anyone who can help me  to bring democracy to our country.

Sincerely, 

Mohammed Al Khilewi 

Dear Mohammed:

Thank you for your response. 

The Committee is made up of five founding members. All but one live in Saudi Arabia and have established businesses and lives. The head is a very well known businessman, three are in business, and one is a professor. At this time, their names are unpublished to protect them from harm's way.  

One member of the Committee is an American-Saudi who under the right circumstances will go public as the spokesman for the Committee. Understandably, real names, telephone numbers, and other data is confidential until the right time when enough publicity is generated that would give them the right protection. 

One of our member is an al-Saud but the rest are Saudi middle class. We are different than any other organization because we do not have grand political ambitions to lead a country. rather, all we want to do is the removal of some members for a good reason : corruption. If we eradicate corruption and ignorance along with it, Saudi Arabia will flourish. 

Our aim is to get rid of the Sudeiri seven and their roots (i.e. Bandar). We have been entrusted with a big task that requires stamina, staying power, and most of all resistance to all the tactics and the hidden agenda Bandar has in store for us. He has a team trying to penetrate our organization to know who are the members and has failed up until now. The FBI is not interested in responding to him as no laws have been broken. And since there are no names, all he has at his disposal is watch the world learn of them without the capability of fighting us. When we become public, we need to have enough fire power to withstand the assault of his PR firms and his small army of consultants and spin doctors. 

He has tried to penetrate the organization with spies and even people with various e-mail messages to get close to us or to contact the embassy and to talk to him. We have refused to do so because we know that all he has to offer is a masquerade and not real change to a rotten system fully developed to enrich them first, protect them second, and then the leftover goes to Saudi Arabia and its citizens. 

C.A.C.S.A. has raised the level of awareness to those who have been brain washed by Fahd's rotten ways and Bandar's media tactics. Under one roof, we have a huge information database and an encyclopedia of collective news and facts that when put together give you the true image of who al-Sudeiris are and what they are doing to the country. What Bandar does not realize is that we are building little by little an alternative source of information that is undermining the millions he is spending to insure the truth is hidden. Our database is now connected to research centers around the country from California to Virginia. We are becoming an alternative center to reach for for information on Saudi Arabia and used heavily in research. Slow erosion of what the Sudeiris have done here since 1984 through Bandar is the best way to describe what we have accomplished. We do not think they understand that yet and when they do, it will be too late. We are like an avalanche without the sound. When you see us and feel us, it is too late. 

Our supporting members stretch from Finland, to Tokyo, to UAE, to Australia. We get approximately 1,500 people visit our site every day and by next summer shall have 5,000 a day based on our projection. The Sudeiris are helpless against this truth, all they can do is stop the internet in Saudi Arabia. 

We welcome people like you and hope to build a following that would eventually all come together in a concerted and powerful effort. Our members have no political ambitions, just change for the better. Any help from any one with the goal to bring democracy and change is appreciated. 

Sincerely,

Fahd

I would like to see some proof that this is not a fictionalized account which I and my colleagues in the field of Near Eastern Studies believe it to be.

Dear Center

That is an interesting comment. How could a Westerner know enough about the ins of the Saudi culture to write such a book ? Why would a writer risk their reputation and a publisher risk legal action to write a book that is fiction and place it in the category of non-fiction when in fact fiction books sell much more than non-fiction ? And finally, the proof is not here, the proof is in the heart of every woman in Saudi Arabia who lives under one people's interpretation of Koran which does not coincide or mirrors any other interpretation in any of the other Islamic countries in the world. There are 6 million women in Saudi Arabia who have to live like no other women in any of the other Islamic nations or any of the other 500 million Islamic women on this earth. That is the larger picture of what this book is all about.

Does your center receive Saudi donations ?

Dear Fahd,

Do you have any specific areas you would like me to write an article about? If so, I would be happy to write something for you.

Could you tell me when you started this set and who compromises the majority of your readers? Are they mostly western or are they from the Arab population?

Is there an advertising plan and how did you attract readers from all over the world? Have you advertised yourself to the White House and the Congress? If you need, you can find most of the Congressional e-mail addresses in the CQ (Congressional Quarterly) Set. Also, have you targeted the United Nations and its 185 members? I have all the Saudi Embassays and Consolates addresses all over the world including Bandar's assistant offices all over the states. If it is useful for your needs, I could send them sometime in the future.

Regarding your set, please note the following: The BMF (Bahrain Freedom Movement) is successfully using photos of tortures that took place. I think if you copy some of the beheadings and hand cuttings on your set it would be most impressive. In your human rights section you don't have any publication from an organization like Article 19 and you don't have the 96 and 97 Human Right Watch reports listed. Regarding the stories about the torture of American citizens in Saudi Arabia, there are many that are more severe than what you have. Some of them have been published in the Congressional Hearings Regarding the Saudi involvement in the terrorist activity all over the wolrd, there are a lot of documented incidents. In the last of them, the Saudi money had been given to the master brain behind the World Trade Center bomb, Mr. Ramzi Yousef. This was published in the New York Times on August 14,1996.

That's it for now.

Dear Mohammed:

Thank you for your e-mail.

I think if you could write about the illicit activities of the Saudi government in the US, it would be helpful. The majority of our readers come from all over the world. We get readers from around 70 different countries as of September 96.

We have advertised in the Washington Post (see http://www.saudhouse.com/ads.htm). We will be advertising in 1997 in the Financial Times, Time and Newsweek, and other highly circulated print media. We are still finalizing our budget.

We have a long list of all the embassies at http://www.saudhouse.com/ambass.htm We think it is complete, however it may not.

If you go to http://www.saudhouse.com/makemail.htm you will be able to send e-mail to lots of powerful people. We are adding several new categories including the UN (we do not have e-mail addresses unfortunately, only tel #'s) and also the media.

We checked the Baharian movement at http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/bahrain but we could not find any photos.You are right about pictures. A picture is worth a thousand words.

We will be downloading the 96 and 97 Human Rights watch reports. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. However, we are not familiar with Article 19.

We will check the Internet for the Congressional Hearings concerning torture of US citizens. If you know where we could find them, please let us know.

We will look for the article in NY Times concerning Ramzi Youssef.

Mohammed, you are most helpful. Thank you for your tips and your concern. If one day we go back to Saudi Arabia under different rulers, it will be because of people like you.

Our best Regards,

Fahd

N.B. By the way, our leader has been informed of you contacting us. He was concerned about your disappearance and said that you are a very courageous man. Indeed.

Dear Fahd,

Thank you for the concern both you and your leader have expressed. It means a lot to me to know that people care about my well being.

I am in the process of writing two articles. The first is about the Dahran explosion. The article is based on the video tape which was submitted last week to the FBI by the Saudi authorities. This article will be issued as a press release and it will not be more than three pages. I intend to publish it by fax to the necessary parties . I will also e-mail you a copy for your perusal and to circulate. The second article will be for your web site. It will be about the illicit activities of the Saudi gov. in the USA. This will be approximately seven pages but it will take a while before I can complete it.

Although you have a long list of embassies, you do not seem to have the Arab countries and a few others. Anyhow, it is no too important because you are covering Europe and the US.

The photos I was referring to, regarding the BMF, were in the phamphlets they published, not in their web site.

I am trying to get you the UN, Article 19, The Arab Human Rights Organization and Liberty e-mail addresses.

Regarding the Congressional Hearings, I believe you can find it in the Library of Congress or you can request it through the Congressional Quarterly on the net. Some of them are under the Congressional Human Rights Caucus 1994 Annual Report issued by the US House of Representatives. There is also a hearing before a subcommittee on International Law, Immigration and Refugees of the Committee On The Judiciary House of Representatives (102 Congress). There are also more hearings about Patricia Roush and Bahmia in the reports. I have them somewhere but I can't locate them at the moment.

Regarding the Al Yamamah scandal I published a front page story in The Sunday Times (London) on July 24, 1994. There is more about it in Thatcher's Gold ( a book).

Also, I noticed your book list did not include After King Fahd (by Henderson ).

I truly hope this information is useful for you.

Regards,

Mohammed

Dear Mohammed:

We are in the process of a planning a new major campaign blitz that will highlight the atrocities of the Saudi regime to the American household. We could use your writing in that new media in addition to the Internet.

If you have the list of Saudi embassies in the Arab countries, we will add it to our list. This list will be used soon to send an Arabic newsletter.

We will search the Internet for the Congrsssional Quarterly and will add the other books to our list.

Looking forward to your writings.

Thanks for everything.
