MSB and Trump both realize that Saudi was being held prisoner by the radicals...with Prince Alwaleed bin Talal holding the key to the jail cell.
Now bin Talal is getting ready to be locked away in said cell.

Like Rex Tillerson or not, he probably knows more about the oil industry and its soft spots than anybody else in the world. Four of the world's powers with which we have varying degrees of complex and difficult relationships are Saudi, Iran, Russia, and Venezuela. All depend on their oil industries to finance their existence. Looks like Trump is putting the pressure where it will do the most good,and do it with the least bloodshed.

The king and crown prince are good guys who actually want the people to be part of the world. They would have been unable to do these things without PDJT in office.

MBS is Mohammed bin Salman. The son of King Sultan and heir to the throne.

Sorry for the transposition. MBS not MSB.

I thought thats who you were referring to but I couldt recall the guys name. You think hes legit?
To: SoCal Pubbie
I think he's proving whether or not he's legit.
If he survives, he's legit.
If he is overthrown in a coup...he's not.
SA is on the razor's edge for the next few weeks.

The key here is that he resigned in SAUDI ARABIA, not in Leb, and did so shortly after meeting with the king-to-be.

IOW, no, he wasn't. Thanks RoosterRedux. I suspect a collaborative effort to destroy the Hizzie arsenal of missiles stored in underground bunkers will start before any US military strike on the Norks.

Among the documents related to former al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, released by the CIA, is a letter reportedly sent by his daughter Eman to Iranian leader Ali Khamenei. (excerpt) Another document, sent by al-Haj Osman (as he called himself) to Maulawi Azmari, a prominent al-Qaeda leader, sheds light on Irans support for al-Qaeda operatives. This finds mention in Bin Ladens correspondence and reveals his role as the link between Iranian intelligence and al-Qaeda. In the letter, Osman mentions the details of the return of some elements of the organization to Iran to collect funds and fighters and to communicate with the Iranian intelligence.

Trump recognized some of the “complexities” they were up against and offered support if they take the right fork in the road they are traveling...

IOW, no, he wasn't.Hariri wasn't forced? Could you elucidate? I'm trying (hopefully not in vain) to understand what's going on with this... I think you could shed light and I will read your comments carefully.

He wasn't forced to resign by Saudi Arabia, he resigned because he was in fear for his life thanks to the Hizzies, who are spreading out that partilcular lie about why it happened. See, that was easy to understand.

But why is Hariri now in detention in Saudi Arabia, if he freely resigned? And who has ever heard of a Prime Minister who left his country in order to resign from abroad, and now apparently is not able to return?
