    They should never have allowed those princes to remain

    Not good if true. Hope it isn’t.

    I guess when you hang up billionaires by their genitals, you are probably better off killing them after you take all of their money.
I am sure they wont make that mistake again.
 
To: Tea Party Terrorist
    Not sorry to see them throw out and executed. ...if that is the outcome.

    Who would replace MbS? Certainly a much worse person than he.

    Lots happening there. I hope he comes out on top. Anyone else he been following Thomas Wictor on Twitter? He has a lot of insight on this. Hard to know what’s real though.

    If true it could prove Las Vegas.

    And maybe the US will finally accept that Saudi Arabia is NOT an ally.

    Iran-backed?
Would be a feather in the cap for Tehran if the coup succeeds.

    Bin Salman tried accommodation and maybe it did not work so well
 Prince Dickweed and his cronies are going to get hung by more than their heels this time around

    I’m surprised it has taken this long to try pushing the young, westernized Prince out. The Royals do not like any change in their myopic world view.
I hope he survives, at least for a good 15 years or so.
Enough time to implement changes and weed out the Old Guard.

    They should never have allowed those princes to remain Kinda like Trump with the Obama holdovers ("LEFTovers").

    15 of the 19. That’s all I need to know about the Saudis.
 
To: rdcbn
    We know very little about what happens behind the Sand Curtain.
In dictatorships, like Saudi Arabia, reliable information is hard to come by.
If there’s really a coup in progress its a reminder the country is run by a single family.
If its ousted, no telling what comes next. This is after all, the Middle East.
