The U.S. Embassy in Saudi Arabia said Wednesday that it has received information that a terrorist group may be planning to abduct Westerners in Riyadh.
The embassy passed along the notice in an emergency message for U.S. citizens.
"The U.S. Embassy in Riyadh reminds all U.S. citizens to exercise prudence and enhanced security awareness at all times," it said.
"We deemed the information to be credible, or would not have issued the emergency message," Deputy State Department spokesman Mark Toner said.
He would not comment on specific intelligence, but said there was no reason for U.S. citizens to leave Saudi Arabia as a result of the message.
- CNN's Jill Dougherty contributed to this report.
Wow what breaking news. If you're a westerner in the ME chances are you could be the target of terrorists or extremists? Jeez and to think all this time I thought these people loved and respected the west.....

Has someone seen "The Kingdom"?
I don't care if it's pc or not...I'd be aware of my surroundings no matter what country I was in.
I am not surprised *at all* that this would be happening in Saudi Arabia, either.
You sound like a sta
You sound like a stay at home woman. This site is for someone who has something intelligent to say. Maybe you should try a entertainment site to comment on and leave the comments here to the working class..
You sound like an bully who doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground. You got an entire home/job scenario from one post? Who are you, Kreskin? In that case, what am I thinking? if you said I think your a tard, you'd be correct.
@Tommy Gunn
Since you admit that this site is for someone who has something intelligent to say, I've got to ask what the hell you're doing on here ?
@ tomy g ***facepalm***
DID THEY HAVE A UFPO sighting? it could be aliens
It's not a servicemark, you Penthouse forum wannabe!
@Tommy Gunn:
Apparently you have never been on this site before, or have no clue as to what a troll is.
You sound like you need to be educated, so:
The only post by me was post #4.
Oh, by the way, what do you think of the story?
Here goes the political war machines campaign to rage americans against Saudis. No doubt the next terror attack will be the Saudis or at least they will be blamed. Then we get to start another un winnable war so all Obombyas buddies can all get rich !
Very well stated, nur amabo nur. Now we're going to see a bunch of ignorant fools post their meaningless but stupid comments here trying make jokes out of this story too. No one with half a brain can blame the Muslims for hating the West like they do! We need a decent President in the White House who's willing to say no to the MIC!!!
I thought we got rid of you, you POS!
So they got credible intel that suggested they issue an emergency statement but theyre reassuring people to stay ? Id be outa there so fast youd think my ass was on fire .
I wouldn't be there in the first place.
@leeintulsa: agreed.
@raven: hey, babydoll!
@fakie banasy quit posting under my user name. Im the real banasy so.....***facepalm*** ***go finger bang your self its fun*** and BTW- ***facepalm*** again...
Hey everyone! Hope alls well with everyone. To the poster directly above me: you keep sayin that like its a BAD thing. If all the wives tales were true Ida been blind in high school.
Did you have to ask your mommy what tht symbol represented?
Pre-teens discovering themselves is so not cute...
@banasy
I think it's kind of funny how these new posters come on here and think they know our posting style.
Like Tommy Gunn, he sounds like he may have skipped out of school early today
and got on the computer before his mommy got home and whipped his butt.
And by the way, Hello
