Time magazine has come out with its annual list of the 100 Most Influential People in the World, and there are two Saudis on the list: Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, the country’s richest man; and Ali al-Naimi, the the Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources. Can you think of other Saudis who should be on the list?

Abdul Rahman Ibn Abdul Aziz Al-Sudais
The leading imam of the Grand mosque in the Islamic holy city of Mecca, Saudi Arabia and the “Islamic Personality Of the Year” 2006.
Shaikh Salman bin Fahad AlAwdah ..
no doubt he was very active this year and the year before not ony in the islamic world but also in other major areas like Europe.
I like his moderate thoughts .. : )
Osama bin Laden
Shaikh Salman took a wrong turn somewhere. The best thing for him is to migrate to a different country and start fresh.
How about Bandar Bin Sultan? He has had loads of influence.
I’d say Mua’an Alsanea.
Well, Osma bin Laden should be on the top of the 100 bigShots. Anyways, Al-Waleed shouldn’t be included “I mean COME ON, r u kidding me”, he is not the richest nor the smartest among the princes.
How about our king ? “I believe he deserves to be on the list.
