Slaughter Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 According to the news the successor have been running the show for a while already with King Fahd being sick. If that is the case then I guess he is already fairly well rooted in the position, and thus things will move smooth. But with the successor being as old as he is I think we may see more trouble when he dies. Hard to know for sure though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accounting Troll Posted August 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 With an 81 year old successor, I think the Saudis are going to end up having to organise another coronation in a few months. Still, the Saudi Royal family had 16,000 members at the last count Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernel Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Well, given the fact that there's "some powerful bloke" over in North America who has close ties with the Saudi Royal family I don't think things will get out of hand. Hmm... can't remember his name right now.... something to do with "big plant".... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
