Arabia
Aging Abdullah to seek medical treatment in US
2010-11-21
But American medicine is so bad that we need Obamacare in an attempt to meet world standards. Why does the king not go to England instead?
King Abdullah Bin Abdulaziz of Saudi Arabia is expected to travel to the U.S. tomorrow to obtain medical treatment for a herniated disc.

The king travels on the recommendation of his doctors, the Saudi Press Agency reported today. Physicians told 86 year old King Abdullah to rest after tests showed that the slipped disc caused a blood clot that put pressure on some nerves, the SPA reported on Nov. 19.
Saudi succession issues are discussed at the WSJ if you can get past the registration barrier.
