A major forum on cyber terrorism (click here) and on how to bring the culprits to justice will be hosted by Imam Muhammad bin Saud Islamic University (IMSIU) on Nov. 18. "The forum is being organized within the framework of the initiative launched by Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah to curb terror in all its forms," said Suleiman bin Abdullah Aba Al-Khail, IMSIU rector, on Saturday.
He noted that cyberspace holds considerable potential for terrorist activities, including through general communication, fund-raising and other forms of attack. "Terrorists' use of the Internet is not only a national security concern, it poses more significant challenges to society as a whole," said Aba Al-Khail.

London and Interpol have something to learn from the King. He goes forward unafraid and determined to protect his people. He is a great leader in the Middle East.

That didn't take long. Do you know Saudi Arabia has one of the most successful programs in finding extremists, sentencing and rehabilitating them. Interesting how the Kingdom can get the job done when others can't. There have been approximately 30 extremists a year the Kingdom admits to rehabilitation.

The supervisory teams (click here) of the Ministry of Commerce have seized more than 2,000 counterfeit smartphone devices branded "iPhone" and "Samsung Galaxy" in a warehouse in the Al-Batha neighborhood of Riyadh. These devices were set to be sold in the local market, with the intention of fooling customers through their seemingly 'proper' packaging in the fake boxes of high-end brand names.
The devices were confiscated by officials, and the two stores involved were closed. Those responsible for the fraudulent goods were arrested for further investigations....
No broad and sweeping programs that cost billions and billions of dollars that invade every space on Earth. Just a successful ministry that ends criminality where it starts. Imagine that. An agency in the USA that actually works without terrifying Americans every chance they get on FOX News.
