A Young Man Set To Attend Western Michigan University Was Beheaded In Saudi Arabia

Mujtaba al-Sweikt was among the 37 people killed in Saudi Arabia's largest mass execution in three years.

But later that year, Sweikt was arrested by Saudi officials at King Fahd International Airport when he was on his way to the US to begin his studies at the college, according to Reprieve, a human rights group that focuses on the death penalty.

He was just 17 years old at the time of his arrest.

Sweikt had reportedly attended a pro-democracy rally during the Arab Spring, which led to his arrest, the Detroit Free Press reported.

Sweikt was "severely beaten all over his body, including the soles of his feet," according to Reprieve. The organization said he was convicted "on the basis of a confession extracted through torture."

Saudi Arabia's interior ministry announced Tuesday that it had executed 37 Saudi nationals who were convicted of terrorism-related and anti-government crimes. The ministry also released a list of their names.

In a statement, the ministry said those executed "adopted terrorist and extremist thinking and formed terrorist cells in order to wreak havoc, destabilize security, spread chaos, stir sectarian sedition and harm social stability and security, through attacking security posts using explosives and bombs, that claimed the lives of an array of security men attacked from aback and showing disloyalty by collaborating with hostile parties aiming at demising the ultimate interests of the nation."

If he does not want to sell, he should at least give us money to buy a new stadium.

I think that our club generates enough money to buy decent players, but a stadium costs too much

We need to get in decent players in first to play in it.

No good having a brilliant stadium, and a crap team.

You cant go billinoair in Saudi without being one of them.....if you know what I mean. I would stay well out the Arab owners, sure they would bring lots of Cash, but we are Chels, hated from all sides. One mistake and everyone would be on us like flies. City and PSG have done much much worse than us, yet I havent seen anything done to them, hell both fifa and UEFA helped them escape any real punishment.......we would get slaughtered.

NYT: Saudi Arabia's Prince Charming was Mister Bone Saw all along

https://boingboing.net/2018/10/17/mister-bone-saw.html

 

Everybody knows that Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman ordered the brutal killing and dismemberment of journalist Jamal Khashoggi (everybody, that is, except the Trumps, who coincidentally do a lot of business with the House of Saud) and the lurid brutality of that murder has prompted calls for western businesses to reconsider their increasingly cozy relationship with Mohammed bin Salman.

MBS's charm offensive over the past year has been the subject of much uncritical reporting from the alleged guardians of the public trust, including the New York Times, who treated "Prince Charming" as a liberalizing reformer, even as he led slaughter in Yemen, mass arrests of journalists and political opposition figures in Saudi Arabia, and other crimes against humanity and human rights abuses.

Yeah it could become a cluster -fuck we cant afford. But on the other hand, politics will play a huge role here. We all know the West are in love with the rich arab countries, UK aint no exception, so just maybe we would get a free ride here and there. If anyone believes City and PSG getting no punishment is due to them being nice and fair, then you are at sleep im sorry. Footy has been corrupt for many years and its rampant in epl.

[ulsterchelsea 3,221]

Lol listen to you lot. Does he have multi billions? Get him in then if Romans selling. We've heard for years about the supposed dodgey dealings Roman has had in the past. Genuinely couldn't care less. Get lots of expensive quality players bought and let everyone else hate us and tell us how corrupt we are. Couldn't give a solitary fuck

What if Ratcliffe is exactly like Kronke? Or what if the Saudi's just get bored and fuck us over like reports with PSG?

My Brother is a Gooner, and he utterly hates Kroenke.....basically every Arsenal fan hates him. He keeps taking money from the Club and Invests peanuts in the team. A Kroenke would be a disaster for us, so no owner from USA is ideal, I rather a Saudi then. Pity with RA really, it does look like he has lost all interest with us. I dont buy the whole he aint allowed to enter Britain, and Thus he is ultra absent. He could easily control it all behind the scenes. Stadium on hold, has put a non footy woman in charge and the rest is history. We need a huge shake up.

What if your granny had balls? She'd be your Granda mate. If we lived by what ifs nothing would ever happen. Plus as I said, only if Roman wants to sell

Yes you are right, but if we did end up with a Kroenke then we are fucked. RA has to make sure the new owner gives a fuck and not look at it as some Cash cow, but a long term Investment and a badge of honour. If the right guy with the right bid comes, RA will sell.....

I don't think your ordinary Saudi Arabian man on the street is capable of buying Chelsea. All the ones with that sort of wealth are part of the head-chopping cult and would turn Chelsea into a vehicle of driving their foreign policy interests while at it. No thanks

We won't truly know until something is made public. 

The thing with Chelsea is very little gets leaked out of the club, particularly at the board level. A couple of the journalists may have a little access to the playing staff and be fed information that the board may want to come out, but the access is limited at best and most of the 'reports' are pure speculation.

For all we know, Roman may have been advised at present not to step foot in the UK. Perhaps he's simply making a stand.

As important as the club is to all of us (and I think to Roman too), he does have far more important things going on currently in his life.

Having said that, it hasn't stopped us spending big money out last summer on Jorginho and Kepa, Pulisic in January, rejecting big money bids for the likes of Hazard, CHO and Willian and then backing Sarri in January by bringing in Higuain. 

There are changes that need to be made because all is not right at the club currently, but most times its a case of "better the devil you know" and I would be far from quick to be calling for Roman to sell the club when you consider some of the possible alternatives we could end up with.

Ohh for sure.....I rather keep RA thats for sure. And yes we have splashed Cash, but its been on utter crap 90% of the time these past years. Rudi and Kepa I like, the others either been pure average on immense amount of money or just not suited to this Sarri ball, whatever the hell it is. I dont trust a dime on Sarri's targets so far and less so on the boards competents.

You don't buy he isn't allowed into Britain for fucks sake mate are you for real ?. He's become an Israeli citizen because our poxy government are cracking down because of the Salisbury poisonings.So they blocked his visa just because he's Russian despite the amount of money he's pumped into the country.

No mate you misunderstood me, or I didnt explain it better. Of course he cant enter UK, but that does not mean he should hand over an elite Club to a lady who has zero footy knowledge and experience. Look at our Club, its rotten atm from top to buttom. Stadium on hold, incompetent people running the show, a squad that has been badly assembled with average players left and right, cant get regular CL, likely a ban is coming thanks to lack of insight, our best player surrounded with dross and looking to leave, a manager that is way out of his depth and so on. RA could have done this better, but instead we are in limbo essentially. Ohh and I agree with the Britains government.....nothing but corrupt puppets. Theres no way they would pull this off if it was City and their arab friends.
