Many sources are saying It's just a rumor.

Here's one such report.

Here are some more:

- UPDATE 4-Saudi king in excellent shape, foreign minister says

- Saudi king in excellent shape, foreign minister says

- Saudi king alive, rumours of death untrue, source says

- Saudi king alive and well

Could still be true ofc. but there are a lot of sources saying It's nothing but a rumor.

From the first source I provided in my last post concerning Islamtimes.org:


"The king is presently in Morocco; he is in good health and good spirits. The report on his death is untrue," the source in Morocco said.

Islamtimes.org web portal reported on Thursday that King Abdullah suffered a sudden heart attack after a phone conversation with U.S. President Barack Obama, during which they discussed the events in Egypt.

The portal said doctors were unable to save the king and he was pronounced dead, but "his death was not reported due to the sensitive conditions that exist in the region."


Just thought you would be interested in seeing that as they were apparently the first to report this alleged rumor.

If the Saudis are claiming he is in fine health, I am going to bet that he is dead.

If he died, I don't believe that the Royal family would release that info. The worries of riots in the country that is home to the two holy cities of Islam would keep them from releasing the info until they have all their royal 'ducks in a row'.

Of course the Saudis are going to deny this.

Then again, the ball is now in their court to prove it!

So if they claimed he was dead, would you bet he's alive?


Prediction: Zombie Abdullah meme sweeps the Internet.

In the case of Achmed the Dead Terrorist, Achmed is the puppet. Unfortunately, in Abdullah's case, the roles are reversed.

Apparently it's a pancake, Dan Lacey is the painter and has a thing for painting pancakes on peoples heads.
There are some all together more disturbing paintings on his site featuring Obama and a unicorn. It's nothing too offensive but clearly the guy has issues.

Oh yeah, and on topic I doubt that he is dead. But then again it is possible that the news would be witheld for a period.

I just came across this story, not sure of the credibility of the source, but it's very interesting. Apparently the Saudi King has suffered a 'major medical setback', although it was reported yesterday that he was "alive and in excellent health."

"Western intelligence sources said Abdullah's medical condition has deteriorated sharply over the last few days. But they said he was not in danger of imminent death.
"He has suffered a major medical setback," an intelligence source said."



WASHINGTON — Saudi King Abdullah is said to have fallen seriously ill.

Something tells me this is like "Father" in Equilibrium. The real Father died a long time ago. Google King Abdullah...all of those pictures look different and off.

Also look at his skin and hair tone. He is in very fine shape for a 86 year old. He appears to be more like 66 or 67.

Well the ball is in Saudi Arabia's court. They can say he is alive & well all they want but now they need to prove it.

I have no idea how reliable this source is.
