jim cottle, falsely imprisoned, tortured, convicted and sentenced in a show trial in saudi arabia, has stated that he wants the government to assist him and the other falsely convicted men in their claims for compensation against the saudi government.



mr cottle, don't get your hopes up. these are bliar's men you're talking about. they will do nothing to help you because they want to keep the saudis sweet so we can continue to get relatively cheap oil from them. you are completely expendable, as are we all, in the government's stampede to help the oil companies' maintain their huge profit levels.



these are men whose representatives in saudi arabia treat all imprisoned britons like pieces of shit. anyone who upsets a saudi or is accused on any crime over there is, in the eyes of our government, just another piece of rubbish to be swept away in the government's attempts to placate the oil men and their greed.
