Did anyone hear Reid object when the Obama administration classified the murder of American soldiers at Ft. Hood by the jihadist, Nadal Hasan, as “workplace violence?” Denigrating Americans as “domestic terrorists”should be the last in Reid’s long history of abusing his Senate position by making nasty, ignorant, false and defamatory statements without suffering any political consequences:

White House deliberately leaked photo of ill Saudi King with breathing tube .......................................................... Special to WorldTribune.com worldtribune.com WASHINGTON — The United States is said to have disclosed that Saudi King Abdullah was dying. Diplomatic sources said the administration of President Barack Obama relayed a photograph that showed Abdullah with a breathing tube, Middle East Newsline reported. U.S. President Barack Obama meets with Saudi King Abdullah on March 28. The sources said the photograph was taken by White House personnel during Obama’s meeting with the Saudi king outside Riyad on March 28. “The Saudis specifically did not want any photograph that showed Abdullah with the tube,” a source said. “But there was a White House photographer that took the picture for what he said was history.” The photograph was said to have been relayed to members of the White House press corps. Within a day, an image of the Saudi king with the breathing tube was sent to the Saudi opposition. “The photograph was a message by the White House that Abdullah is going down and so is the rest of the family,” the source said. The sources said the Saudi royal court had demanded that no photographs be taken of Abdullah with the breathing tube. They said the royal court suggested either long shots or close-ups after the king had concealed the tube under his cloak. The photograph of Abdullah was released after Obama and the king failed to make any headway in the late-night meeting. It marked the first visit by Obama to Saudi Arabia in his more than five years as president. Later, the White House website removed all but one photograph of Obama’s meeting with the Saudi king. The sources said the White House limited Obama’s visit to Saudi Arabia to several hours after his advisers determined that the meeting with Abdullah would be unsuccessful. They said the administration, amid its rapproachment with Iran, has sought to isolate Saudi Arabia while wooing other members of the Gulf Cooperation Council, particularly Oman, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. On April 17, a Shi’ite-aligned opposition research group quoted U.S. sources as saying that Abdullah was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. The Washington-based Institute for Gulf Affairs posted an unattributed photograph of the king with a breathing tube next to his son, Prince Mitab. The institute said Abdullah was seen with the tube during his meeting with Obama as well as on April 4. “I received from an official American source [information] that King Abdullah has cancer and two to six months to live,” institute director Ali Al Ahmed said on Twitter on March 31.
