Another incident. Westerner stabbed in a Dhahran mall this time.
The police are saying that they are investigating each case separately, but surely they should be looking at the bigger picture..

Half of Jordanian/Lebanese/Syrians in the Middle East have a Canadian passport.

OK. I just meant that for an ISIS related attack, a (Muslim) Jordanian with a Canadian passport is not equal to a Christian white Canadian... if you see what I mean.

Another development: whoever shot the Danish guy in Riyadh last week filmed it and posted the video on youtube today. Looks like it happened on the Al Kharj road quite a way south of Ikea:

There was an unreported attack on a Dutch guy on the Dammam Road in Riyadh yesterday - someone forced his car off the road but apparently he got away.
Also - and quite a way away from Saudi - but an American woman was stabbed to death in a mall in Abu Dhabi yesterday. They've arrested the alleged attacker, who apparently had a stash of bombs in her house.

Worriness levels increasing from my end.
