Wrong
picture but true story about the giant skeleton found in
Saudi Arabia!
Was it deliberate that the picture in
a story
of a giant skeleton found in Saudi Arabia was fake - or
had the newspaper just picked a photo they thought fit as
an illustration? Here is the real photo and a confirmation
that the story is true!
A
few year ago I read a story on the internet about a giant
skeleton that was found in Saudi Arabia
by an oil-exploration company (ARAMCO) but learned by doing
some surfing that it was a hoax: The picture was manipulated
with a photo-editing software - made for a competition a competition
in the web site Worth1000.com.

Then,
quite some time later, I came across the same "hoax "
again but I was surprised to see that it seemed that the story
might have some truth to it after all - even if the picture
was a fake! A Dr. Richard Paley of Fellowship University
in the USA had called his contacts in the Middle East to hear
if they knew anything about the story, and got confirmed an
ARAMCO geological team had uncovered something in southeast
Saudi Arabia in the summer
of 2000:
"A
teacher in Saudi Arabia has told me that it is well

known
among foreign oil workers whom he is in contact with, that
some sort of human remains were discovered in the desert.",
he says on his webpage.
Dr Paley decided to contact the teacher
and see if he heard of anything about photos being taken at
the fossil site:
- He said that he had heard there
were photos taken, but that the police had confiscated them
all, however he would ask around and see if anyone knew any
more. Then, just this morning, I received an e-mail from a
person in the Saudi oil industry who, understandably, wishes
to remain nameless. He told me that he was working as a technician
(not a geologist) with the team that found the skeleton and
corroborated much of the rumors about the incident. The skeleton
was indeed of a giant human and there was a police cover up.
Well, I decided to send an email to
Dr Paley:
Dear Sir,
I read in an internet page that you are investigating
an issue about giant bones found in Saudi Arabia: Paley,
"A teacher in Saudi Arabia has told me that it
is well known among foreign oil workers whom he is in
contact with, that some sort of human remains were discovered
in the desert." "The workers' wild speculation
on what these remains were, ranged from angel fossils
to the bones of Mohammed. But the most common claim
was that they were giant human bones."

Can you please confirm that this is familiar to you?

I
received a reply - and I was surprised to read that not even
was the story true but that Dr. Paley was concerned for the
welfare of his informants - he obviously feared that they
might have got in serious trouble with the secret police because
of the involvement in such a controversial matter:
Dear Mr. Dahl,
Please see my web-site for the story and photo that
was sent to me:
http://objectiveministries.org/creation/news.html#8-2-2004
This is all I know. My contacts have gone cold since
then. I pray every
night that they are safe.
Yours in Christ,
Dr. Richard Paley

found in Saudi Arabia is true!
