A couple years ago, when I was writing for American Dad!, I needed an Arabic speaker for a small part. Our casting director recommended a Saudi comedian, who happened to be in LA for a couple months shooting a tv show. His name is Fahad Albutairi.

Heartbreaking.

What about Assad’s regime? Assad killed half a million Syrians, displaced 10 millions Syrians, used chemical weapons against his own people, yet again he labelled him as a( president)!!

Tragic, what a waste. Please continue to oppose the evil Saudi regime. It sickens me that the UK supports it. Not in my name.

All the human rights violations ignored here for the sake of arms sales. Disgraceful!

Love to hear your latest thinking on Brexit Emily... not hearing much at all from the Labour front bench and what I have heard sounds oddly like the PM. Not what I expect from the Labour party I'm a member of.
