My Old Boss Died



My old boss, a boozer, gambler, and whore-hopper extraordinaire, King Fahd (some spell it Fahad) ibn Abdul-Aziz Al Saud has died. He was in poor health in recent years, and the administration of the country was handled by his brothers and half-brothers. I'm curious to see what happens next in Saudi Arabia, as Fahd's half-brother Abdullah, the crown prince, has always maintained close ties with the Mutawwa, who were the official enforcers of Wahabbism, and it seems that he's at odds with the remaining "Sudairi Seven".

Just in case you're interested, here's a pro-Fahd website, and an even more interesting article about the speculations of what happens next, and when Fahd really died (from a few days back).

And what the heck, let's throw in a positive Abdullah website as well....just remember it's propaganda.

Our country has been in too deep with these guys for too long.
