With thanks and credit to Brugmansian, it's looking like all the LSM fuss about Michelle's extravagant vacation in Spain, just might be a distraction to cover up a much more sinister reason for her trip.
Brugmansian uncovered the following article in EL MUNDO and the last paragraph is of specific importance.
Varias casas reales árabes también pasan sus veranos en Marbella desde hace años. Así, habrá un encuentro entre Michelle Obama y el príncipe Salman bin Abdelaziz, gobernador de Riad y hermano del fallecido Rey Fahd de Arabia Saudí; mientras que se baraja otra reunión de la primera dama con el propietario del Málaga CF, empresario multimillonario, hijo del ministro del Interior de Qatar y miembro de la familia real qatarí, Abdullah Al Thani.

It is important to point out, that nothing about her meeting with the above named has been mentioned in the Lame Stream Media, just out of character scolding and gripes about the expense of her trip!
Another fascinating fact: Jesse Jackson Jr, is also along on the trip. Yes, son of shakedown artist himself.
hoosiermama and others will add links and comments from kristinn's original thread and I will provide the link to that thread HERE
I read El Mundo article and gave it a good reading, and I don’t see the merits for hysteria. The article sounds pretty gossipy.
It is August and all of Europe is on vacation. A lot of wealthy folks have homes/places to stay in Marbella as they have over the years. This also includes wealthy Arab Royals.
“Varias casas reales árabes también pasan sus veranos en Marbella desde hace años.”
Some royal Arab Houses also spend their summers in Marbella as they have for many years.
“Así, habrá un encuentro entre Michelle Obama y el príncipe Salman bin Abdelaziz, gobernador de Riad y hermano del fallecido Rey Fahd de Arabia Saudí; mientras que se baraja otra reunión de la primera dama con el propietario del Málaga CF, empresario multimillonario, hijo del ministro del Interior de Qatar y miembro de la familia real qatarí, Abdullah Al Thani.”
Thus, there will be an encounter between M.O. and the prince Salman bin Aabdelaziz, governor of Riad and brother of the late King Fahd of Saudi Arabia; while another reunion is arranged with the proprietor of Málaga CF, multimillionaire impresario, son of the Interior Minister of Qatar and member of the Qatar royal family, Abdullah Al Thani.
P.S.
This woman is not too bright. I think she is just trying to rub elbows with the rich and famous because it gives her a buzz and it brings attention to her. And from all these threads, it is working.

hmmmm..never heard about his friend peddling missiles!! Remember when Jesse Sr. said he’d like to cut off Obama’s cajones? Things that make you go hmmmm..... Wouldn’t it be interesting if the Jackson’s were the ones to finally bring Obama down by exposing his corruption and anti-American bent? No-one could scream ‘racism’ and Jackson would be the ‘hero’. Jackson is a shakedown artist, but I don’t get the impression that he hates this country the way Obama and his marxist friends do. Probably just wishful thinking on my part.
You are correct, I am so sorry. I have my references mixed up and it was like 2 am. I keep saying I am going to stay off of FR while groggy, but it’s as addictive as coffee. :o)
Considering the money involved, there is plenty to spread around and it is possible to create a rather complex ruse to get him and family out of the country and to a hidden but secure spot.
This possibility actually occurred to me back when Lehman Brothers and Bear Stearns collapsed (or were force into collapse). The use of offshore (and onshore) "naked shorts" to kill investment banks was a very Soros-like procedure.
It dawned on me that if Soros used Obama to pummel the stock market, the economy, the domestic oil industry (for the sake of both the Saudis, for a price, and Soros' holdings of Petrobras)...he and Obama could--by taking and trading short positions which take advantage of the aforementioned--become the richest two men in the world (by far). And who knows what other schemes they've cooked up.
And as we know, Soros isn't above it. He sold out the Jews to the Nazi's and busted the Bank of England.
In fact, Obama could even seek asylum with the Saudis and blame the GOP and Glenn Beck for conspiring to destroy him. He could muddy the water so much that his constituencies in this country would still weep for him.
Again, just thinking out loud.
Michelleis arranging for the Obama "bolt hole" when the fat lady sings on his presidency? He will resign and move to Quatar? Good riddance?
Ugh. You’re right, it could happen. Nothing actually would surprise me.
Well, I am off to the Sunday thread.
I agree, this is exactly what the purpose of the trip is IMHO. I bet there now is a rather interestig series of Bank Accounts for the family set up in Switzerland , Saudi and Quatar.Obama will try to foment disorder and rioting when he loses his elections, and then if his treason becomes understood by the public, the people will no longer accept Obama , and he will be forced to resign his office. He is not a president, unqualified, so he either resigns, is arrested , or the Godfather remedy applies. None of which is very good for our nation, but then we didn't create the scenario as a people. Obama knows these are the options. He likely is setting up a bolt hole. I for one hope he has to use it, soonest.
“I always thought Jesse Senior was an arms dealer, which would explain his amazing success negotiating hostage deals with Third World thugs, and that friend of his who got arrested several years ago trying to peddle missiles in Florida.”

BCCI CLIENTS OFFERED PROSTITUTES, HILL TOLD - FORMER OFFICER ALSO DETAILS EFFORT BY BANK TO COURT JESSE JACKSON
Washington Post - Thursday, March 19, 1992
Author: Sharon Walsh, Washington Post Staff Writer
Drug-money laundering, bribery, arms merchants and noteworthy politicians. The global scandal of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International had almost everything it needed to be a major motion picture — except sex. Now it has that, too
Nazir Chinoy, former head of BCCI’s French and African operations, testified yesterday before a Senate subcommittee that the international bank’s Pakistan office regularly arranged for teenage girls to be brought in from the countryside to “take care of any personal needs” of the wealthy Middle Eastern clients of the bank.
(snip)
Chinoy, who has pleaded guilty to drug-money laundering in Tampa and is cooperating with U.S. investigators, also added the name of Jesse Jackson to the list of U.S. friends of BCCI, including former president Jimmy Carter, who benefited from BCCI’s financial largesse. The bank paid the hotel bills of Jackson , his wife and several others in his party during two trips to Paris in late 1985, Chinoy said. The expenses were about $11,000 for the two stays, Chinoy said.
Shortly after he arrived in Paris in 1985, Chinoy said, he received a telephone call from Aga Hasan Abedi, BCCI’s founder, telling him that Jackson would be coming to Paris after visiting Abedi in London. Chinoy picked up Jackson and his party at the train station and made arrangements for him to stay in the suite where Abedi usually stayed at the Paris Hilton. BCCI paid about $4,000 in expenses for Jackson on that trip, Chinoy said.
Chinoy told Senate investigators that after leaving Paris, Jackson went to Africa, where he encouraged state banks to open accounts at BCCI, an allegation Jackson denied. Jackson then returned to Paris, this time requesting that he and his party stay in a suite at the more elegant George V Hotel. BCCI also provided Jackson with a Rolls-Royce for his stay. The hotel bill for that visit was about $7,000, Chinoy said yesterday, and was paid from BCCI’s Cayman Islands bank.
Jackson said yesterday that BCCI did pay about $11,000 for his accommodations during two visits to Paris in late 1985. But he said that he has never had any business relationship with the bank or its founder, and that he was unaware of any wrongdoing at the bank at the time.
(snip)
In his wide-ranging testimony, Chinoy also said Adnan Khashoggi , the Saudi arms dealer, would write checks on a BCCI Monte Carlo branch even though he didn’t have enough funds to cover the checks. Khashoggi deposited the checks in London bank accounts as a way of advancing funds to cover arms sales to Iran. There were about nine transactions totaling $16 million arranged that way, according to Chinoy.

Adnan Khashoggi has ties to Auchi who was the $$ man for Rezko. What if this is damage control for a potential guilty plea by Blago who knows all the players in Chicago corruption. He would know this Khashoggi is one of the money men as well as how ohbummer is connected.
If he was involved in the meltdown it could get very interesting.
For one to go here and one to be in Chicago points to the trial where everyone is involved. Where is Valerie Jerrett and Axel at?

The Saudis perceive The Rookie as weak. That's no big secret, it's been reported as such on the Saudi state run media.
And as you pointed out, she will be flying directly to Andrews and she and her plane won't be searched, so there are probably a good chance there is going to be secrets coming in with her; be it a classified dossier, money or drugs or a combination of all the three.

The MSM hasn't been complaining about the expenses. What they have said is that Conservative bloggers are making a big deal out of nothing.
It is a BFD when the taxpayers are funding a "private trip" of a public citizen, because she's flying on Air Force 2.
I wish I thought that he was going to decamp, even with a huge bundle of money, but frankly, I don’t think we’re going to get rid of him that easily.
Hello! Jerrett is up to her tukus in this mess. This has to be pure damage control and trying to stop it if Blago gets convicted.
Obozo would be the next stop for Fitz along w/Jerrett and Rham. Why would he go to Chicago for vaca?
Pray for America
With this admin and the msm in their pocket, none would be the wiser.
I wondered what the heck was up with just one daughter and then missing his BD and the opportunity for parties but why send this dunder head with so many eyes on her? Not to mention she's a woman. Unless there's an "impromptu" invitation to tour some Saudi's yacht to show "harmony" and "reaching across the seas" then an under the radar errand boy would have sufficed.
Someone needs to ask Gibbs for the complete list of travelers. Also, this story is very interesting: I caught the tail end of a Fox n Friends interview this morning talking about how the Lockerbie bomber was released at the request of BP & England (White House too?) because BP wanted drilling rights in Libya.
Something is so rotten in Washington.
“Jesse Jackson is another interesting part of the deal.”
Yes, I never would have expected Jcube to vacation there!
Here’s the connection. Adnan Khashoggi was funneling $$ to Auchi as well as Rezko to fund OBoy’s campaigns. They also funneled the $$ through the bank to finance his house which was or wasn’t paid back.
This is all known by Blago and Rezko and now they have to hope Blago is aquitted or he will make a deal faster than a lib on a spending bill.
Angry Michelle is in Spain trying to keept he Saudis quiet and passing the latest from Chicago and vice versa. She also has to convince them they will be around to keep America from drilling their own oil w/the collapse of the Cap & Trade and public opinion still wanting drilling.
Adnan Khashoggi has to be convinced they will be around as useful puppets for the next 2 yrs to contribute to DNC campaigns.
This is all that makes sense for him not to go on vacation to Spain w/the lovely family.
