A wild rumour - and yet ... Bin Salman was not photographed meeting with Pompeo during the recent visit to Saudi Arabia. That was unusual. Photographs have been released, to show that the Crown Prince is alive and well. But these photos cannot be dated. So ... rumours abound.

..the attempt at Mandalay Bay is plausible. Notice how things have changed re the House of Said since then.

MBS appears to be cleaning out the corruption in the famlily, therefore they will continue to try to destroy him...

Every Saudi could die for all I care. Sadly wouldn’t make much a dent in the Islamic population but it would be a start.

Another article also puts to the lie a question of an injury or assasination on April 21st. The Prince attended the inauguration of the City of Entertainment in Riyadh on April 28 in person.

https://www.boursedirect.fr/fr/actualites/categorie/economie/arabie-saoudite-coup-d-envoi-d-un-projet-de-cite-du-divertissement-afp-ccff73c91ca1dc04565cd79d4310829694090a69

Saudi King Salman on Saturday night kicked off the construction of a gigantic "entertainment city" near the capital Ryad, a mega-project that is part of the kingdom's desire to open up to diversify its economy, which is too dependent on oil.

The giant recreational park project in Qiddiya, southwest of Ryad, will cover 334 km2. It is presented as the equivalent of a Disneyland where authorities hope to attract "17 million visitors by 2030".

According to a statement from the Ministry of Information, Qiddiya will have a multitude of entertainment and entertainment attractions, including theme parks, sports facilities and cultural centers.

The first phase of development should be completed by 2022, the statement said.

This mega-project is part of the reforms initiated by the son of the king, the Crown Prince Mohammed ben Salmane, 32, who was present at the ceremony Saturday night.

More than half of the Saudi population is under 25 years old. The kingdom was closed up to this point, and the wealthiest Saudis went abroad for entertainment.

I hope he is not dead. He is certainly the best thing to come out the Kingdom of Saud for a long, long time.
