Isn't this special. A little help from Obama eh ? I suspect on the tax payers dime would be more accurate.


Ahmed the 'clock boy' on celebrity tour in Saudi Arabia
Made headlines after 'making' device resembling bomb
October 13, 2015

Texas teenager Ahmed Mohamed brought a clock that looked like a bomb to school. His dad is a 9/11 conspiracy theorist. And with a little help from President Obama, they have been treated like celebrities in New York, Qatar, and now Saudi Arabia.

It was only weeks ago that 14-year-old Mohamed brought his “suitcase clock” to MacArthur High School in Irving, Texas, on Sept. 14. Cops temporarily detained him and school officials imposed a three-day suspension, but the ensuing media attention prompted an invite to the White House by Obama. Attention by dignitaries around the globe followed.

Mohamed and his family arrived at Abdul Aziz International Airport in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, last Friday. They landed after spending time with Turkey’s prime minister at the U.N.’s General Assembly in New York, and touring an “education city” in Doha, Qatar, funded by the Qatari government.

wad Qarshom, head of the Sudanese community in Jeddah, told Arab News on Saturday a celebration was organized to honor Mohamed.

“Ahmed Al-Hassan will be honored by the creativity committee of the Sudanese community in Jeddah during a celebration which will be organized soon with prominent personalities of the community in the Kingdom and journalists of the Sudanese media including TV and newspapers,” Qarshom said.

The family also plans to visit relatives and take part in umrah (a pilgrimage to Mecca), hosted by the Saudi government.

Mohammed Elhassan Mohamed, the boy’s father, immigrated to the U.S. in the mid-80s from Sudan. He has twice attempted to become the North African country’s president as part of the Arabic-language National Reform Party.
