no the best Saudi security force managed was killing unarmed civilian on pilgrimage , when they faced armed terrorist they had to beg Pakistan security force and Frenches to solve the problem and that's a factSorry, that isn't my version. The RSLF did a good job. The SSG had a significant role too, because of their counterterror experience. We didn't say it was a Zionist conspiracy though.
No, the SSF dealt with your terrorists very effectively. That was their very first-hand experience (;
Grand Mosque Seizure - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
and look who the master terrorist was
Juhayman al-Otaybi was from "one of the foremost families of Najd. His grandfather had ridden with Ibn Saud in the early decades of the century."[6] He was a preacher, a former corporal in the Saudi National Guard, and a former student of Sheikh Abdel Aziz al Baaz, who went on to become the Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia. Juhaiman had turned against al Baz, "and began advocating a return to the original ways of Islam, among other things; a repudiation of the West; an end of education of women; abolition of television and expulsion of non-Muslims."
Certainly Nor Iranian neither a Shia
and It was what happened
Soon after the rebel seizure, about a hundred security officers of the Ministry of Interior attempted to retake the mosque, and were decisively turned back with heavy casualties. The survivors were quickly joined by units of the Saudi Arabian Army and Saudi Arabian National Guard.
With religious approval granted, Saudi forces launched frontal assaults on three of the main gates. The assaulting force was repulsed, and never even got close to breaking through the insurgents' defenses. Snipers continued to pick off soldiers who showed themselves. The mosque's public address system was used to broadcast the insurgents' message throughout the streets of Mecca.
An elite unit of the SSG, the commando unit of the Pakistan Army was mobilized and SSG commandos were rushed to Mecca from Pakistan on Saudi Government's request. In the middle of the day, Saudi troops abseiled from helicopters directly into the central courtyard of the mosque. The soldiers were picked off by insurgents holding superior positions.
Officially, the Saudi government took the position of not aggressively taking the mosque, but rather to starve the militants. Nevertheless, several unsuccessful assaults were undertaken, at least one of them through the underground tunnels in and around the mosque.
