Westminster Abbey Flies Flag at 'Half Mast' for King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia

Westminster Abbey announced on Twitter that it's flying its flag at half staff after the death of King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia.

"The Abbey flag is flying at half mast as a mark of respect following the death of King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz, King of Saudi Arabia," the church tweeted.

Ironically, Christianity is not welcome in Saudi Arabia. As religious liberty expert Nina Shea has told Fox News just a few months ago, "Saudi Arabia is continuing the religious cleansing that has always been its official policy. … It is the only nation state in the world with the official policy of banning all churches. This is enforced even though there are over 2 million Christian foreign workers in that country. Those victimized are typically poor, from Asian and African countries with weak governments."
