North Texas alumnus Adel al-Jubeir was honored as Time Magazine Person of the Week in December 2002.

I had the opportunity to meet Adel al-Jubeir at a dinner hosted by Dr Pohl during the early 2000's as part of Dr Pohl's Distinguished Speaker Series.

Adel al-Jubeir has been a steadfast opponent to radical terrorist groups, and there was a documented Iranian sponsored assassination attempt several years ago in Washington DC when they attempted to kill Adel al-Jubeir, and bomb both the Saudi and Israeli embassies in the US.

An interesting point to this 2011 plot was that US Federal Judge Andrew Napolitano declared the assassination attempt legally an act of crime. If the plot had been carried out, the United States would have declared it to be an Act Of War by Iran.
