May be truth, may be hot air, but this blog details a connection.

NOTE: Prince Alwaleed bin Talal is a different person from
Sheik Alwaleed bin Ibrahim.

Prince Alwaleed bin Talal – Obama’s Sugar Daddy

(see below for translation)

Why was Obama’s first interview as President of the United States done with Al-Arabiya instead of an American television station? The Saudis are good at covering their tracks on this.

Al-Arabiya is owned by the Middle Eastern Broadcasting Company (MBC) which is privately owned, and MBC is careful enough as to not release the names of its shareholders. MBC is widely thought to be owned by the Saudi King’s in-law Sheik Alwaleed bin Ibrahim, and therefore, the Saudi government has a direct stake in it.

If this is true, then it would explain why they were able to get this first interview. Here is what we know about Obama’s Saudi backing and connection:

Percy Sutton (Malcom X’s lawyer) said in an interview that Khalid Al-Mansour was raising funds for Obama to go to Harvard. At that time, Al-Mansour was a “principle advisor to one of the world’s richest men.” This man is often thought to be Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal as per the following quote from Newsmax:

“But in the lengthy interview, al-Mansour confirmed that he frequently spoke on university campuses, including Columbia, where Percy Sutton suggested he met Obama in the late 1980s, and confirmed his close relationship with Prince Alwaleed.”

Prince Waleed is famous for trying to bribe New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani suggesting that America’s relations with Israel was the principle cause of the 911 attacks. If this sugar-daddy of more than 20 years is truly Prince Alwaleed, then it debunks the media’s fairy-tale about Obama’s humble beginnings since Prince Waleed is the 17th richest man in the world.

Thus, the views and ideas of the Saudi Royalty are all in line with and executed through Obama’s Executive Order granting amnesty to members of Hamas within the first 30 days of his Presidency.

Obama owes so much to Prince Alwaleed that would make Obama an “abed” or “Black Muslim slave” who is indebted to the Saudi Prince.

Putting all this information together with what appeared at Harvard, we get Prince Alwaleed’s School of Islamic Studies of which is sponsored by the Prince. Why is this important? Well, it’s a way to channel the money, isn’t it? This was probably used to kill two birds with one stone in providing Obama with tuition and to indoctrinate American kids while showing prestige in doing it.

Keep in mind that Obama is the ONLY Head of the Harvard Law Review to have never published a single article from there. The speculation was that he was not good enough and Harvard Law Review did not want to be embarassed by it. Thus, Obama needed help with this one.

Also, huge Citi investor.

Excerpt:

Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud (born 7 March 1955) is a member of the Saudi Royal Family. He is the nephew of the Saudi Arabia King Abdullah, and the grand son of the first Lebanese prime minister after independence Riad as-Solh. An entrepreneur and international investor, well connected in politics and power houses in Saudi Arabia and Lebanon, he has amassed a fortune through investments in real estate and the stock market.

*snip*

Although his stake in Citibank once accounted for approximately half of his wealth, by January 2009 this holding had lost nearly all of its value. At the end of 1990 he bought 4.9% of Citicorp’s existing common shares for $207m ($12.46 per share)—the most that he could without being legally obliged to declare his interest.

In February 1991, as American troops stationed in Saudi Arabia were preparing for war with Iraq, the prince spent $590m buying new preferred shares, convertible into common shares at $16 each. This amounted to a further 10% of Citicorp and took his stake to 14.9%.[2]

In January 2008, the Prince participated — together with the Singapore government investment coporation and other investors — in a $12.5 Billion capital raise, in an unsuccessful effort to shore up Citi’s capital position, but the value of these shares continued to plunge.

Saudi Prince Gives Millions to Harvard and Georgetown to spread Islam
The same prince from whom Rudolph Giuliani returned money after 9/11. “Saudi Prince Gives Millions to Harvard and Georgetown,” from the New York Times, with thanks to David:

Harvard University and Georgetown University each announced yesterday that they had received $20 million donations from Prince Alwaleed bin Talal bin Abdulaziz Alsaud, a Saudi businessman and member of the Saudi royal family, to finance Islamic studies.
Harvard said it would create a universitywide program on Islamic studies, recruit new faculty members in the field, provide more support for graduate students and convert rare Islamic textual sources into digital formats to make them widely available.

“For a university with global aspirations, it is critical that Harvard have a strong program on Islam that is worldwide and interdisciplinary in scope,” said Steven E. Hyman, Harvard’s provost, who will coordinate adopting the new program.

Georgetown said it would use the gift - the second-largest it has ever received - to expand its Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding, which is part of its Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service. It said it would rename the center the H.R.H. Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding...

"Would someone please remind me WHY we give so much of our money to people like this???"

Especially since we're sitting on the World's largest supply of coal, oil shale, lots of LNG and INVENTED nuclear power. Of course, the environmental lobby has kept us from building any nuclear power plants since the 1970's.

VVVVeeerrrryyyy interesting! I remember early in Pres Bush time. The RATS tried to throw a pie in the prez face and the leftist mainstream media delightfully printed what the RATS were feeding them. The RATS accused the Pres of asking the Saudis to increase production to keep the price of gas down. A practice all other previous presidents had done, something the American public wasn’t privy to. However, the prez announced that he hadn’t asked the Saudis and the Saudi King verified that he hadn’t been asked by the prez even though Clintoon had done so during his tenure.

Thanks for the ping. This is one of the probable reasons that Obama doesn’t want to release his school records. All of his lies about ‘student loans’ would come tumbling out.

Yep ... or it was paid for by Muslims.
