Some sources allege that immediately after making the following announcement, Abbie, as his friends like to call him, hauled his fat ass to Vegas for a gambling binge and a few blond hookers to help him deal with the tremendous stress he's been experiencing over his concern for the region. If the Saudis have any real concern over Lebanon, it's the way this latest war sets back plans to fill Beirut with Casinos, fine hotels and restaurants and some of the best imported tail from the skin trade. Such are the sacrifices to be endured in the name of Allah, though it sure beats blowing yourself up, said da King.
Saudi King Abdullah appealed to the world Tuesday to stop Israeli attacks on Lebanon, saying that if peace moves fail, the Middle East could be engulfed in war.
In a statement read out on state television, the king said: "if the option of peace fails as a result of Israeli arrogance, then the only option remaining will be war, and God alone knows what the region would witness in a conflict that would spare no one."
The statement, issued by the royal court, said that the Saudi government had been trying to bring a halt to the violence since it began on July 12, when Hizbullah guerrillas snatched two Israeli soldiers in a cross-border raid from Lebanon.
"It must be said that patience can't last forever, and if the brutal Israeli military continues to kill and destroy, no one can foresee what may happen," the king said.
""It must be said that patience can't last forever, and if the brutal Israeli military continues to kill and destroy, no one can foresee what may happen," the king said."
Hunh? He just said Allah knows. And they're getting their marching orders from Allah. Maybe their Plenipotentiariat Supreme Mystic should drop some flyers or something. Or a load of virgins to tantalize those mean Hezbollah dudes off the holy battlefield.
