If you think the price of gas is high now, imagine what might have happened if this plot succeeded.
Police in Saudi Arabia have arrested 172 suspected militants in an alleged plot to blow up the country’s oil fields.
The apparent plan, which has echoes of classic al-Qaida moves, is said to have involved training pilots to fly aircraft into buildings and facilities to wreak as much havoc as possible. Among the targets were some as yet unspecified places outside the country.
Saudi authorities also claim public figures were set as targets for assassination, and the plot was about to have a start date set when authorities swooped in.
