[edit] Inaccuracies

unfortunately , the article considers that the Special Emergency Forces (SEF) and Special Security Forces (SSF) are the same but they are not , they are seperated and have different commands and different tasks. --77.31.203.146 (talk) 21:21, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

They are the same actully , the former name was SSF until few years ago.  A M M A R  12:57, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

no they aren't , Ammar. Why do you say they are the same ? its true that their manpower quality is almost the same , while they differ in quantity , and that they work together most of the time in counter-terrorism but they are two different security systems. there is no former name or new name. the SSF is different than SEF and both should have seperated articles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.235.13.97 (talk) 07:55, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Formation

This article claims that the Special Emergency Force was created in 1972, while Grand Mosque Seizure claims that it was formed after the terrorist attack in 1979. --Wasted Sapience 05:05, 4 March 2007 (UTC)


the article of the Grand mosque seizure is inaccurate. the Saudi special force which was established in the early of 1400 (1979 AD) is the Special Navy Force of the Royal Saudi Navy Forces. it is similar to the SEALs of the United States.... --77.31.229.222 (talk) 16:52, 10 March 2008 (UTC)Saudi

Actully the Emergency Force is a special Police force , for anti-roit and counter-terrorism missions. The forces which dealed with the grand mosque event were the national guard and special french forces.  A M M A R  12:55, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
