Washington ? FBI Director Robert Mueller is traveling overseas this week on a tour that will include a stop in the Middle East.

An FBI spokesman declined to confirm a Time magazine report that the director would be stopping in Saudi Arabia to thank the Saudis for their cooperation following the May 12 suicide bombings in Riyadh.

A federal law enforcement source speaking on the condition of anonymity, however, said Mueller would visit the kingdom, and possibly make a trip to Morocco as well.
