KING FAHD OF SAUDI ARABIA



OK FATHERS , EXPLAIN TO YOUR SONS WHO THIS MAN IS AND WHAT HE STOOD FOR:

HE IS THAT DAMN IMPORTANT

Fahd was the 11th son of the founder of the Saudi kingdom, king Ibn Saud. Some of his main issues have been strong economical growth built upon income from oil exports and development of alternative economical incomes. His politics have been open towards the USA. His main opponents have been Islamists in his own country and Iraq's leader Saddam Hussein in recent years. Fahd's personal fortune is estimated to exceed US$20 billion.
