This is from the National Museum in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The museum is an excellent and large new museum with exhibits covering ancient history through to modern times. This was filmed in Riyadh in January 2008. The Museum includes some of the oldest rocks in the world -- I believe 2 billion years old as well as dinosaur bones and other artifacts found in Saudi Arabia. Riyadh is the capitol city of Saudi Arabia and the center for government for the country. Contrary to most images of Saudi Arabia, this park is typical of the wholesome family atmosphere common in the country. It is very tranquil and relaxing. The National Museum is run with support from the Supreme Tourism Commission (STC) and HRH Price Sultan bin Salman bin Abdul Aziz. Prince Salman is an amazing person and was voted by a youth Arab counsel as their most respected and admired figure. He is young and charismatic and was the first Arab, first Muslim and first Saudi astronaut. Prince Sultan bin Salman is a patron of the arts and very interested in archeology and science. This quiet and simple video is about as basic as you can get: people enjoying time in a park with their families. It would be great if more people in the world saw more images like these of other cultures: especially those often misunderstood places like The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. connect w/ me on facebook http://www.facebook.com/bruce.fenton.page

What's the best car to drive across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia? Why, A McLaren 12C of course. We cover more than 2000 kilometres looking for motoring nirvana. On paper, it didn't look that far. On a map, Saudi Arabia looks relatively mid-sized, nestled next to the enormous expanse of the African mainland. But now that I'm here, and I'm mentally calculating distances and driving times, I fear I may have underestimated things somewhat. We -- that's me, www.crankandpiston.com colleague Phil McGovern, a film crew and a few special guests -- are about to start a fairly epic drive across what, to many, is a very mysterious country. I've never been to Saudi before -- my one previous attempt to visit was stymied by the lengthy visa approval process -- so what I know is largely based on stories from other people and from the media. Not all of which is entirely complimentary. But on the other hand, there's something appealing about such a mysterious place, a place that's rarely high on people's must-visit list. Saudi is off-the beaten track, a relative enigma, a place I want to find out more about. Is it really the fun-free dustbowl as portrayed by so many?

"A Saudi woman was killed in a car crash in the capital on Thursday as she defied the kingdom's long-standing ban on female driving, local media reported. "The woman, in her 20s, lost control of her vehicle and crashed into the wall of a youth club in Riyadh, according to the website of the local Al-Jazeera daily. "The car caught fire and she died, it said. "Ultra-conservative Saudi Arabia is the only country in the world where women are not allowed to drive."* In this clip, The Young Turks' host Cenk Uygur breaks down the faulty logic leading some to conclude that accidents involving Saudi women drivers support the law banning women drivers. *For more, read the Express Tribune story here: http://tribune.com.pk/story/705853/saudi-woman-killed-in-car-crash-while-defying-driving-ban-report/ ********** The Largest Online News Show in the World.

Most people know Dubai for its massive skyscrapers and luxurious hotels, but few know that the city was built by modern-day slaves. -- For months, the BBC's Ben Anderson hung out around the glittering, insane towers springing up in Dubai trying to infiltrate the community of expatriate workers who are putting them up. What he found when he finally got in was that the jewel of the Arab world is almost entirely built upon imported slave labor.

Ronnie continues his exploration of the vast Liwa Oasis led by local guide and rally veteran James West. Cameras don't do justice to the size and scale of this enormous desert landscape with dunes as far as the eye can see. Taking a break from riding, Ronnie visits an eccentric car museum, checks out the date farms, and then recharges with a night at a 5 star oasis in the middle of nowhere. Fueled up and ready to ride Ronnie and crew near the Saudi Arabian border before unloading and heading down a 1,000 foot dune into another epic freeriding session!

"A rash of new laws issued in Saudi Arabia aim to blot out all political dissent — and in one case defines atheists as terrorists. The series of laws began in January of 2014. At the end of last month, Human Rights Watch issued a report explaining that "a series of related royal decrees create a legal framework that appears to criminalize virtually all dissident thought or expression as terrorism." According to the Times of India, some of the laws were issued to deal with the number of Saudis who traveled to Syria to partake in the civil war, and returned with new ideas of overthrowing the monarchy. In February King Abdullah issued Royal Decree 44, which criminalizes "participating in hostilities outside the kingdom." The penalty for such activity is three to 20 years in prison."* The Young Turks hosts Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break it down. *Read more here from Sarah Gray / Salon: http://www.salon.com/2014/04/03/new_laws_in_saudi_arabia_declare_that_atheists_are_terrorists/ ********** The Largest Online News Show in the World.
