| Saudi Arabia can't dispense largess like it used to, President Aoun, and it's only going to get worse. Sorry. |
Michel Aoun...a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hizbullah...
has said he looks forward to reviving and consolidating ties with Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
The news comes shortly after Saudi Arabia’s Prince Khaled al-Faisal invited Aoun to visit Saudi.
Al Faisal, governor of Makkah and an adviser to the king, said during an official visit to Leb that Aoun had promised to visit as soon as a new Lebanese government was formed.
The Saudi delegation also announced that it will hold meetings with Parliament Speaker Nabih
KnobbyBerri
Speaker of the Lebanese parliament, a member of AMAL, a not very subtle Hizbullah sock puppet...
and Prime Minister-designate Saad Hariri
Second son of Rafik Hariri, the Leb PM who was assassinated in 2005. He has was prime minister in his own right from 2009 through early 2011. He was born in Riyadh to an Iraqi mother and graduated from Georgetown University. He managed his father's business interests in Riyadh until his father's assassination. When his father died he inherited a fortune of some $4.1 billion, which won't do him much good if Hizbullah has him bumped off, too.
