Decadent western medicine Some raw

Decadent western medicine
Some raw material for all you conspiracy theorists out there. Did you know that the rulers of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the UAE - the three most important Gulf states - have all been in western Europe for medical treatment in the last couple of weeks? As has Osama Bin Laden's mother, who received a touching call from her adopted son just a couple of days before the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington. Debka, an online outlet for the Israeli intelligence services, sees a suspect pattern. My only thought: funny how the Arab ruling class believe in our decadent western medicine.

Debka: Saudi royal family in flight
Debka: Saudis change minds on U.S. support
Celebrities in Switzerland: Fahd Ibn Abdu Aziz
