Yet another reason why I'm glad we live in Saudi no more

Jeddah (or Jiddah, Arabic names have no set Engrish spellings), which is actually quite a nice city on the Red Sea where I twice vacationed, was the scene of yet another attack on American in Saudi Arabia. Articles here, and here. Jeddah is the "liberal" or "open" city of Saudi Arabia, and as such, had the most lax security that I saw anywhere in the Kingdom, as well as the least restrictive enforcement of sharia, which made it much more fun than Riyadh.
