In October 2001, following the World Trade Center attacks, New York mayor Rudy Giuliani turned down a $10 million donation from Alwaleed for disaster relief after the prince suggested the United States "must address some of the issues that led to such a criminal attack," and "re-examine its policies in the Middle East." Giuliani interpreted his statements as drawing "a moral equivalency between liberal democracies like the United States, like Israel, and terrorist states and those who condone terrorism."[7]
In 2002, Alwaleed donated 18.5 million British pounds ($27 million) to Palestinians during a TV telethon following Israeli operations in the West Bank refugee camp in Jenin in response to a suicide bombing that killed 29 Israelis. The telethon was ordered by Saudi King Fahd to help relatives of Palestinian "martyrs", which the Saudi government defined as "Palestinians who are victimized by Israeli terror and violence," and insisting the money wouldn't reach the families of suicide bombers. Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal stated that half of his pledge would help rebuild Palestinian infrastructure destroyed by Israeli forces, while the rest would be donated in the form of goods, including 100 vehicles and clothing.[8][9] However, a member of the Palestinian Legislative Council said that "some money will go to the families of suicide bombers." [10]

Translation of the first one minute forty seven seconds of this program.
“The war in Iraq does not seem to be over al all, but in the meantime the rebuilding has already started. This has unleashed fierce competition for contracts, which are mainly awarded to American ( U.S.) companies.
What is remarkable about these companies, is that they have people on their payroll from American politics and the military. Is this a conflict of interest, or is this the new global way of doing business?
[text in the screen at this time reads: 'the iron triangle']
One of the companies that operates in this manner is the Carlyle Group.
On their payroll are people like George Bush (Sr.), James Baker III and old premier John Major.
The Carlyle Group is a private investment bank which doesn’t come to the public’s attention very often but it is one of the biggest American (ed: USA) investors of the defense industry, telecom, property and financial services.
In March 2008, “Carlyle Capital, an affiliate of the private equity firm the Carlyle Group, said that its negotiations with lenders had broken down and that it was in default on $16.6 billion in loans. Carlyle had borrowed the money to buy mortgage securities backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. All appeared well until the prices of those bonds declined and the lenders made a margin call — a demand that Carlyle put up more collateral to cover the loans.”
The Carlyle Funds include: U.S. Buyout Funds group; U.S. Venture Funds group; U.S. Real Estate Funds group; U.S. High Yield Funds group; Europe Buyout Fund; Europe Venture Fund; Asia Buyout Fund; Asia Venture Fund; and Carlyle/Riverstone Global Energy and Power Funds.
WOW!
This is important information of the relevant kind! “The truth shall set you free” kind of relevant. Thanks for the post.
Interesting
Where did you get this info? How do we know you did not make it up? Why no links to where it might be documented?
The oligarchy enriched the Arabs . . . what around the 1970’s . . . or earlier . . .
And has continued to use them toward globalism.
OThuga is a small cog in a very big machine.
A very ugly machine.
FWIW
No linky..........you stinky
Too bad, Obama, that you needed capitalism to pay for all your socialism, hmmm? Oh yeah, the ends, the means, and all that. At least after a year you are SLOWLY becoming more transparent, against your will, of course.
Oh, you mean Bill Ayers the mild-mannered college professor that just happens to live down the street from Barry in trendy Hyde Park, and the Bill Ayers whose kids just happened to attend the same Chicago school as the Soetoro chilluns, and oh heck the same Bill Ayers that just happened to serve with 0bama on the board of an "anti-poverty group", the Woods Fund of Chicago. Total coincidence. Asked and answered. Nothing to see here. Move along.
Where exactly is the evidence to support your title: “Saudi Prince Paid for Obama’s Harvard Law Education: HRH Alwaleed Bin Talal Bin AbdulAziz Alsaud”?
It now looks like our best hope to divest ourselves of the moslim/marxist destructive forces tearing apart the very fabric of our nation is; global economic collapse on a total scale.
We will need to have those influences abroad neutralized, at the same time the deceitful powers now in control are brought to their knees.
Than and only than will the peons have a shot at ridding this nation of the plague like politicians that doublespeak us into financial ruin.
Where is the documentation for this statement: “Saudi Prince Paid for Obama’s Harvard Law Education”
Thanks . . .
I have sent this to Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh with no response back In reading Saul Alinskys book. Saul Alinskys speaks about the the Weathermen. Everyone truly understands that Obama/Soetoro was a disciple of Alinsky. In reading the Prologue on page xvii “These were the Weatherman and their like: they took the grand cop-out, suicide.”. also on page xix quoting about an organizer responsibilities.
“As an organizer I start from whee the world is, as it is, not as I would like it to be. That we accept the world as it is does not in any sense weaken our desire to change it into what we believe it should be - it is necessary to begin where the world is if we are going to change it to what we think it should be. That means working in the system.
There’s another reason for working in the system. Dostoevski said that taking a new step is what people fear most. Any revolutionary change must be preceded by passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitudw change among the mass of our people. They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and chance the future. This acceptance is the reformation essential to any revolution. To bring this reformation requires that the organizer work inside the system, among the middle class but the 40 percent of American families - more than seventy million people - whose incomes range from $5000 - $10,000 a year, They cannot be dismissed by labeling them blue collar or hard hat. They will continue to be relatively passive and slightly challenging. If we fail to communicate with them, if we don’t encourage them to form alliances with us, they will move to the right. Maybe they will anyway, but let’s not let it happen by default.”
Further in the Prologue, “Power comes out of the barrel of the gun!” page xx. “ Spouting qotes from Mao, Castro, Che Guerva, which are germane to our highly technological, computerized, cybernetic, nuclear - powered, mass media society as a stagecoach on jet runway at Kennedy airport?” page xxi.
“A reformation means that masses of our people have reached the point of disillusionment with past ways and values. They don’t know what will work but they do know that prevailing system is self-defeating, frustrating and hopeless. They won’t act for change but won’t strongly oppose those who do. The time is ripe for revolution,” page xxii.
“it is not enough to just elect your candidates. You must keep the prressure on . Radicals should keep in mind Franklin D, Roosevelt’s response to a reform delegation, “Okay, you’ve convinced me. Now goon out and bring pressure on me!” Action comes from keeping the heat on. No politician can sit on a hoy issue if you make it hot enough.” page xxii - xxiv.
?The final word on our system. The democratic ideal springs from the ideas of liberty, equality, majority rule through free elections, protection of the rights of minorities, and freedom to subscribe to multiple loyalities in matters of religion, economics and politics rather than to a total loyalty to the state. The spirit of democracy is the idea of importance and worth in the individual, and faith in the kind of world, where the individual can achieve as much of his potential as possible.” page xxiv.
O claims that both Michelle and him had to pay back student loans. That way he could never give money to charities. Probably another lie. If he truly had his education at Occidential as a international student on a scholarship. Columbia University - did he truly attend there, or as student that was registered as a student but attended colleges elsewhere through studies abroad. I do know that this was a possibility in the 80s. Columbia University participated in a International Study Program Abroad with various Universities. But because the age of the internet was truly not present it is hard to tell what universities were available because everything was in a print format. Generally courses were offered through England, France.
Can you explain any of this?
It wouldnt make any difference if Charles Manson paid for his education.
He got elected , he is in charge now.
And shame on us for it being so.
I noticed that Obama manifest something about his thinking at the National Prayer Breakfast.
He made mention of 9/11 at the National Prayer Breakfast in a list of natural disasters including the Haiti Earthquake, Hurricane Katrina, and 9/11 as events which seemed to be required to return us as a nation back to where our responsibilities laid,...then merged this with the ecumenical idea that all religions require their believers to provide sacrifice for their fellow man.
What I found revealing Obama's innermost thinking, was that while God might discipline his people where they fall away from Him, those who are far removed from faith in Christ perceive such discipline simply as natural disaster and their solution to guilt is to perform an act of charity to substitute for their judgment.
I also found it revealing that from a Muslim perspective, 9/11 may have been considered an 'ethical' requirement to try and force America to return to acts of sacrifice. It sure seemed from listening to Obama that he shared that perspective, listing 9/11 alongside Katrina and Haiti's earthquake as events which force Americans, not back to God, but towards charitable sacrifice.
IMHO, it's a very antiChristian twisted perspective promoted by those of the world, seeking to advance themselves without righteous or just accountability.

Later
Three years ago I traveled from Zamboanga, Philippines to Sabah on Weesam Express. The stops were Sulu and Tawi Tawi. On the return trip at immigration in Sabah, an Asian woman had a caucasin baby going thru immigration. After much confusion and delay the lady was allowed to proceed with the baby.
In Jolu, Sulu the lady and baby left the vessel. Sulu is a Muslim controlled part of the Philippines.
I reported this observation to the US Embassy in Malaysia and Manila.
In this world so many events are taking place..it boggles the mind.
