No worries, as a girl and a Jew, they wouldn't want you there anyway.
But you'd think just visiting one of their consulates wouldn't be dangerous.
Here's one good thing about the Kingdom: If you do get there, you can't drive, so this won't happen to you:

And in other breaking news, the guy suspected of masterminding the poisoning of the Skripols, at Putin's order of course, is dead at 62 or something like that.
I recerntly heard an interview on Fresh Air with an author whose father lived in fear of a Mexican govt hit squad. Because the father had *refused* an assignment to kill someone. The killers everntually got the father.

So it’s not really breaking, but it’s worth repeating here because a lot of “hit men” are dying mysteriously.

There needs to be more transparency in the spy business!
