| Iran multibillionaire luxury apartment in Mecca | |
| 2004-12-13 | |
According to the Iranian website of 'Baztab', months after the purchase of a six million dollar apartment in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, by a famous Iranian multibillionaire, rifts are underway between the Saudi government and the Iranian trader. The Iranian businessman reportedly one of the main figures involved in the cell phone business in Iran recently bought a luxury apartment in the most expensive district of Mecca. The apartment is located in front of King Abdulaziz's palace. However there are differences between the Iranian and the Saudi government over the location of the apartment and the residence of the Iranian there. The Iranian businessman is said to have close links with the Iranian government officials and owns vast areas of lands in northern Iran.

| #1 The apartment is located in front of King Abdulaziz’s palace. I guess the Saudis must have overheard that Iranian bigshot bragging about how his new digs were "just a rifle-shot away from the King's palace." Still, you have to wonder just how warm a welcome this Shi'ite guy is getting in Mecca. Sorta like a whore in church, if you ask me. |
