    He should be punished as you would any typical drug user. Its time that this family was exposed for what it really is….. dirty, drunkards, drug users, shameless, immoral, unethical, murderers, rapists, peadophiles and pimps. These people say they follow the religion of Islam yet their actions are the total opposite.

    See what so much money does to people!

  • Constantin

    I bet you that one call from the King or the royal family in Saudi Arabia to Hariri will release this dirty prince with excuses!

  • Louay Faour

  • Tony A

    they probably have diplomatic immunity. where’s my invitation to your party SUCKAAAAAAAAAAA

  • TABET

    you guys are right he deserves to be punished like anyone else, but we all know he’s going to get off the charges. These guys get away with everything, lets hope the prosecuter is a really tough arrogant guy who doesn’t care much for the arab royals and will try and make an example of this guy.

    Come on guys! First, he is not selling it, he is using it himself. Second, it is NOT that he is terrorizing anyone with it. Believe you and me, if that stuff were to explode it will explode inside of his nostrils and will only kill him. No need to crucify him! You guys want to worry? Worry about our politician thieves not about a poor or rich schmuck sniffing crap…

  • Constantin

    Have you sniffed some Walid? You sound you have….lolll.

    Just the fact he is Saudi, I was happy he got arrested. Imagine if it was a Lebanese arrested in the Jeddah Airport for carrying drugs. Imagine the hell that this Lebanese will have to endure with the retarded, vicious, cruel, inhumane (I am running out of adjectives) and scum Saudi police force…. Just imagine!

    Who cares about some high flying Suadi prince. As with all people, races, religions, creeds there are good and bad people all over. With this being said, I believe that his punishment should fit the crime, but let’s look at how much drugs, weapons & cash is smuggled and funneled through Rafik Harriri airport on a daily basis belonging to political parties and modern day war lords.

  • Ask my mum

    Hmmm if it was anyone else they their life would be ruined, a few years in jail and everything else that comes with it. So why should it be different for him oh yeah i forgot he can buy his way out and if i was him id do the same.
    Id like to get an invite to one of his parties. line em up—

  • Walid Khouri
