U.S. ASKS CITIZENS IN GULF TO CONSIDER LEAVING
http://www.menewsline.com/stories/2...ry/02_04_1.html
WASHINGTON [MENL] -- The United States has formally asked its citizens in Gulf Cooperation Council states to consider returning home amid the increasing threat of Islamic insurgency attacks.
The State Department has urged family members of diplomats and embassy employees to leave at least two GCC countries. At the same time, U.S. embassies were asking an estimated 40,000 nationals in Gulf Arab countries to consider leaving the region.
The embassies relayed warden messages to U.S. nationals in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, asking them to reconsider their stay in the region. The messages by the U.S. embassies warned of increased risk of attack as hundreds of thousands of Muslim pilgrims arrive in Saudi Arabia.
"Private American citizens currently in Saudi Arabia should evaluate rigorously their own security situations and should consider departing," the U.S. embassy in Riyad said. "U.S. citizens who remain in Saudi Arabia despite this travel warning are encouraged to register at the consular section of the U.S. embassy in Riyad, or at the consulates in Jedda and Dharan, and enroll in the emergency alert network."
