megacities with top schools, hospitals and corporate headquarters to ease the
strain of Beijing”
“Public services are too
concentrated in the capital, so more people flock to Beijing and worsen the
pollution”

China’s politicians have finally woken up to the nations concerns over
hazardous air pollution”

pollution caused by the coal burning industry”

fight these terrorists on their own”

precedent to do more to reel in those who fight against the sanctity of life
with their extremists’ ways”
“It is these extremists that
have severely cut at the heart of what Islam is all about”

the radical clerics, who wish to incite power over their fellow Muslims”

victim to these extreme ideologies”

extremists in Iraq, Syria, Libya, Egypt and Afghanistan”

how they can actually continue to maintain such a power that seems to go on
forever”
“The term ‘smart power’ refers to the strategy of
combining hard and soft power resources to protect its national interests and
security”
“This policy shows a need for
a strong economy and military”
“It also shows that Saudi
Arabia invests in alliances, partnerships and institutions at all levels”
“This way it can expand its
influence and it legitimises its state actions”
“Saudi Arabia has a unique
approach to vacillating between using hard or soft power”
“This is possible because it
is one of the wealthiest nations in the world, the home of the Islamic religion
& possessing vast oil reserves”
“It is due to these resources
that Saudi Arabia has been able to advance its foreign policy interests in the
form of smart power”
“Saudi Arabia is home to the
holiest places in Islam, Mecca and Medina”
“The Kingdom has made
significant use of Islam as soft power”
“This is how it maintains
national security, regional leadership in the Middle East and the wider Islamic
world”
“To Saudi Arabia, Islam is a
source of political and moral values and is a key to its national identity”
“It is the power of its
religion, which can be seen on a tour of Riyadh”
“Here its capital city shows
the power of religion over the social life there”
“Saudi women dress
conservatively and mosques dominate the skyline”
“This also allows for the
population to consent to the Royal Family’s rule and the appreciation of
Islamic Sharia Law”

soft power is at the very heart of Saudi Arabia’s politics”
“It captures the hearts and
minds of Muslims around the world”

organisations and will support Islamic causes worldwide – its reach stretches
out everywhere”

Muslim world comes from their feelings of Islamic solidarity”

its influence over the Middle East”

mediator role in putting its weight into bringing about reconciliation between
Qatar and Egypt”

granting Sisi’s government $5 billion together with an extra $130 billion,
which will go for social benefits”

its own people”
“At the same time they give a
helping hand to those who seek to defend their interests in these neighbouring
countries”

are of true global importance, especially in the West”
“Its additional production of
2 million barrels a day in 2012 supported the world economy”
“Saudi Arabia has made
significant use of its hard and soft power to achieve its goals”

has borne fruit in the Arab and Muslim world. This is not so in the western

necessary for all this to happen”

is of course IS, who have their own agenda”
“They will not stand for this
carve-up of the Middle East when they have precisely the same objective”
“Watch a different
demographic appear, where IS are spreading themselves out in other regions not
yet conquered”
“This is on the radar
nevertheless”
“It will be an expensive time
for them, as they re-route their policies to meet up with their objectives”
“They are to rid the western
powers of the Middle East & bring it back into a totalitarian state or
caliphate, which is their objective form”
“IS will continue to look at
other ways to rescue finance, so that their objective becomes long-lasting and
permanent”
“They feel they cannot lose
and that God is permanently with them in their ideology/objective”
“As we have repeatedly given,
IS cannot be defeated militarily”
“It has to be their ideology
that must be dissolved in order to bring stability to the Middle East”
“Conventional arms have no
chance of succeeding and it is naïve to even think so”
“The lessons learnt from
waging war on Afghanistan have still not been learnt and so it will be with IS”

themselves with their own clerics that must wash away this disruptive ideology”
“The right changes must occur
from within”
“No western powers will ever
win against so extreme an ideology”
“It has to be the Arab world,
which sorts out their own problems”
“The greater powers of the
world must allow them that right to do so”
“While the greater powers
still see it as their rights to invade sovereign states, they will find their
own folly”
“That folly will have far
reaching consequences, which is already happening, as in Paris and the United
States”
“The fight back and
disruption has already occurred and more is to come until a back off is
incurred”
“When will the greater powers
finally realise they cannot continue in their colonial aspirations just because
they see fit to do so?”
“When will they begin to wake
up that they cannot any longer have control over the rest of the world?”
“They cannot fulfil their
appetite of self-interest over and above what should be common decency and the
Rule of Law”
“IS will continue to play
havoc in Europe and the US in order to send out the message:”
““If you mess with us, we will mess with you””
“Again it must be stated, it
is the Arab nations that must deal with their own vermin and no one else”
“This way respect by Arab
nations will return for the West’s non-interference”
“Stability can only be
achieved in this way”
“The western powers must
learn from historical wars, if they are to have any respect in the world today!”
