Get a Medal for saying 9/11 was an Inside Job?
and, in fact, is as good as winning a lottery?
Run a TV Station that tells many Muslims what they want to hear
and then your monetary woes will disappear.
For, as you continue all conflicting evidence to soft pedal,
sooner or later ,the Saudi King will give you a medal
as well as quite a stash
of 24-carat cash
and it will include a letter from that oil-rich autocrat
replete with eloquent praises and phrases plush
for, just like many an American Democrat,
having blamed everything on Mr. George W. Bush.

The co-winners in any category share the monetary grant.
According to the citation read out by Al-Othaimeen, Naik, a non-Arabic Indian Islamic scholar, has become a renowned authority on comparative religion. “He has founded a TV channel called Peace TV, which remains the only channel in the world specialized in comparative religion with huge audience profile,” said the citation.
Referring to the prize given in science category, the KFIP secretary-general said that Gratzel, a professor at Swiss Federal Institute, is recognized for “his foundational and practical discoveries in the development of photo-electrochemical systems for solar energy conversion.”
The co-winner in science category, Yaghi, has made seminal contributions in the field of metal organic frameworks.
He applauded the achievements of Kaki in Islamic studies for “his distinguished research on cultural heritage of Madinah.”
The award for Arabic language and literature was withheld as none of the nominees met the criteria laid down by the selection committee this year.
