 card number 17. King Fahad, oh snap, the Saudis are in. I'm a Contra too. King Fahad, I believe he's Saudi, if I'm thinking about the right person. Yeah, that's him. Saudi Arabian Monarch, Fahad bin Abdul Aziz. Saudi Arabia's King Fahad is one of 45 sons of Ibn Saud who founded the modern state of Saudi Arabia in 1932. The Bedouin king was the largest single contributor to the Contras. Congressional investigators traced the total of 33.6 million that passed through Adolf Kallaro's FDN bank account. Of that amount, 32 million was received from Saudi Arabia. It was a small price to pay for continued US military support for his regime. Fahad gave many times that amount to the Afghan Mujahideen, another US backed anti-communist force. The man who opened the doors to the Mullahs was General Richard Seacourt. Seacourt number 19. As the head of the Pentagon's foreign military sales program from 1978 to 1981, Seacourt oversaw sales of billions of dollars in military equipment to the nations of the Middle East. In 1981, Seacourt and Oliver North, Seacourt number 13 successfully lobbied Congress to support the 8.5 billion sale of AWACS surveillance planes to Saudi Arabia over the stiff objection of the Israeli lobby, thus assuring King Fahad's support of the Contras. King Fahad is the world's second richest monarch, with a personal fortune estimated at 20 billion. The world's wealthiest monarch is the Sultan of Brunei, a tiny oil-rich country near Brunei, although his personal wealth is estimated at 25 billion. The Sultan gave the Contras a mere 10 million, maybe a step senile.
