The Saudi law firm of Salah Al Hejailan clearly
got
some bad info on how far the shores of American identity
politics extend. Consider this bit from a recruiting letter the
firm recently sent out:
We are interested in
recruiting one senior Anglo-Saxon
lawyer (with 7+ PQE), preferably with
Saudi, but at the very least with GCC work experience
to play a corporate/commercial role in ourJeddah office.
By Anglo-Saxon we mean of Caucasian ethnicity as opposed to
lawyers from the MENA or Asian Sub-Continent who happen to have
UK or US nationality/qualifications.
