funny thing is he has all those cars for "security" all its gonna take is one RPG or one sniper to kill his ass. What good is a armored truck infront and behind you? assuming his benz isn't armored


or you know, he could be a typical fob and rolll 20 deep, JUST IN CASE shit goes down

i thought that's why there are SUV's travelling alongside his benz...making it a harder target for RPG...and I'm willing to be the car is armoured..but I'm sure a few sniper rifle can still penetrate bullets through window armour.

Quick search on his Wikipedia page says..

* King Abdullah paid for the separation surgery of a pair of Polish conjoined twins, which took place at the King Abd al-Aziz Medical City in Riyadh on January 3, 2005. He was given "honorary citizenship" by the Polish town of Janikowo, where the twins were born. March 18, 2005 was awarded Order of the Smile (which he earned during his visit in Poland in 2007).

* He has established two libraries, the King Abdulaziz Library in Riyadh and another in Casablanca, Morocco.

* He donated over $300,000 to furnish a New Orleans high school rebuilding after Hurricane Katrina.

* He has donated $50 million in cash and $10 million worth of relief materials for the 2008 Sichuan earthquake in China.[62]

* He donated $10 billion to the endowment fund of the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology in May 2008.[63]

* He established the King Abdullah University (Rawalakot) in Pakistan's Azad Jammu & Kashmir after the 2005 Kashmir earthquake.

* On February 5, 2011, he waived $156 million USD of housing loans for nearly 3,300 Saudis who had passed away. [64]

Guess he's not entirely bad.

All those benz are armoured. Look at the edge of the passenger window.

King Abdullah needs to be thrown out of power. With all that money he can't build one hospital in his own country that's good enough for him. So he fly's to America with 3 private planes. There was so much luggage the TSA had to higher a private company to screen it all. It took 20 vehicles to hove it all. He also rented am entire wing of a hospital making other patients move.

http://michellemalkin.com/2010/11/30/king/

Following the signing of the Health Care bill, Saudi King Abdullah reportedly called President Obama to congratulate him on the US taking a step toward embracing a superior universal health care system like the one that can be found in Saudi Arabia.

The health care in Saudia Arabia is so awesome that Abdullah came to the US last week to brag about it — and to have back surgery in New York.

Guys who roll like that either know about security, or know who to hire for security. I wouldn't be surprised if they hired ex-Secret Service guys. Secret Service deploys counter-snipers and scouts to check out routes long before the actual date of travel.


LOL @ RS kids thinking they know more than billionaires.

Thanks for your garbage post.

http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/a...-heart-surgery

I guess Canada doesn't have a single good hospital either.

Or maybe you can't just go out and buy commitment to highly specialized medical treatment research from a grassroots level, the inception of new medical specialties and cutting edge medical innovation, complex networks of educational institutions, primary research facilities, and the best doctors in the world.

Yeah if I was one of the wealthiest people in the world, I wouldn't want any of that.

Idiot.
