Sources to Naharnet: Saudi Troops to Spearhead Proposed Syria Peacekeeping Force
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Saudi Arabia will be the first country to contribute troops should a joint U.N.-Arab peacekeeping force proposed by the Arab League see light, journalistic sources in the kingdom said, following the sharp toned remarks voiced by Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal during the League’s meeting on Sunday.
“The Royal Saudi Land Forces will be at the forefront of participants in the peacekeeping mission in Syria should the decision taken by the Arab foreign ministers during their meeting in Cairo yesterday be approved,” journalistic sources in Saudi Arabia told Naharnet.
The Arab League on Sunday decided to offer political and financial support to the Syrian opposition and to ask the United Nations to form a joint peacekeeping force to the unrest-swept nation in moves swiftly rejected by Syria.
Meanwhile, unconfirmed media reports said the kingdom had addressed a strongly worded ultimatum to the Syrian regime, warning it “to stop the killing within 72 hours or face a possible direct military intervention or military support for the soldiers who have defected from the regime.”
Media circles in the kingdom have been buzzing with the aforementioned reports.
According to semi-confirmed information obtained by Naharnet, columns of Saudi tanks are heading north towards the city of Tabuk which is located some 90 kilometers from the Halat Ammar border crossing with Jordan.

As far as a country called Israel exists in this region ,people in middle east never see the face of peace in their life .The problem is with the stupidity of the people living in this region who tolerate the corrupt rulers in their countries.

Oh I see jabalamel you love bashar too, why? Is it because he us killing civilians. Or the Syrian revolution is a hoax but the other Arab springs are legitimate. Like Bahrain? Egypt! And Who says anything about Saudi. I happen to love lebanon only. But not your Iranian, terrorist, hateful, oppressed, fanatic infested one color one leader nation. So hassouna's brain-washing only works on the weak, like yourself.

Saudi Royal forces? Poor Pakistani and Bengali who are paid by the stolen oil of Yemen. "Sheepyard of Saudi Arabia" is nearing its end by the Women Revolution. By God's will it will be Saudi Women who will bring down Wahabism in the Holy Land.
