Riyadh - A group of Saudi youth Thursday called for a peaceful demonstration in the coastal city of Jeddah in solidarity with anti-government protesters in Libya.

In a printed statement distributed around Riyadh, a group calling itself Jeddah Youth for Change asked people to demonstrate near the al-Beia roundabout in Jeddah on Friday.

'We will not give up our right to peacefully demonstrate,' the announcement read.

'We will express our solidarity with the Libyan people who are living the hardship of their revolt against the oppressive and unjust system of Moamer Gaddafi,' the flier said.

4. I don't think that is in the cards for SA

at least not without a lot of struggle and a long take over by the religious nuts to start with... after of course the punishment of the House of Saud.

And yes, I want to be provem very wrong on this and my understanding of the area.
