Saudi Arabia's King dead...

#1 Postby streetsoldier » Mon Aug 01, 2005 3:10 am

King Fahd passed away early this morning; Crown Prince Abdullah has been named his successor. What this may mean for the world, and the Middle east is up for grabs at this time. :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Will it really mean that much? He's been basically king only in title since his stroke 10 years ago. Crown Prince Abdullah has been the real head of the country.



.........Well, upon further investigation, I agree. We'll have to wait and see. It seems King Fahd had a lot to do with the US even being in the country, so his successor may want to change thing s around a bit.

Only time will tell. I have read opinions of what would happen in the past so lets hope they are wrong.
