There is no word on his fate, but Saudi authorities said that one of the corruption cases they are looking at is the al-Yamamah arms deal, in which Bandar was involved."
That's how they roll over there.
Something tells me that heads will have to roll, literally, or else some day these guys on the outs now will be back. In black.
What is the arms deal?
Good. Beat them and throw shoes at them.
That’s the way to obtain the password to their Swiss bank accounts. We should try it with Hillary and Obama.
Salman was in Las Vegas at the Tropicana, Oct. 1, 2017, being escorted out by a SWAT team ready to fire at anyone, at the time of the Mandalay incident. The prince he is torturing now owns the Four Seasons, all 4 stories directly above Paddock`s room.
Remember Bush constantly telling us "It's A Religion Of Peace"
What A Maroon
This Saudi succession struggle has featured firefights, a missile/anti-missile explosion over Riyadh, bank account freezes...
Why not a concert shooting..?
The Saudi-owned Four Seasons is the top 4 floors of the Mandalay Bay.
What ELSE is very nearly at the top of the Mandalay Bay..?
Floor 32 —the perch of the shooting.
Having the meet there would put just a staircase or two between the shooter and the hotel.
DID PART OF THIS SUCCESSION STRUGGLE PLAY OUT IN VEGAS..?
Was something ELSE supposed to happen there, but was prevented..?
Was the concert shooting intented as a distration from SOMETHING ELSE..?
well they did try to kill him.
Well at least they didn’t die in an airplane crash
Both of the old King Abdullah’s sons have been detained as well as Alwaleed and now Bandr.
There’s only two more top princes left that I’m aware of, outside King Salman’s own relatives.
“People inside the royal court also told MEE that the scale of the crackdown...”
When they say crackdown, they mean crackdown.
I'm beginning to think the DC Swamp could benefit from similar methods.
Good. These the scum that funded Al Qudia and ISIS.
Middle East Eye exclusive?
I read this same news about four hours ago on another site.
Perhaps, one of the shrubs can fly over to Saudi Arabia and provide a character reference....
They all deserve that, and more. They are the source of much of the world's terrorism, including the ones doing the "purge".
The purge began a week ago, and only now are the purged people receiving some sympathy in the media.
That alone should demonstrate just how effective Crown Prince bin Talal’s swampdraining had been: before the purge, these captured princes threw around billions in corruption money, some of which was to buy themeselves some good #FakeNews about themselves.
Now, they get nothing but crickets.
By all rights this process should result in a refund of trillion$ to the US, confiscated from the condemned Saudis. We need reparations for 9/11, and a refund with interest and penalty for the extra revenue the Saudis pocketed when oil prices soared post-9/11.
This is simply the modern version of the Ottoman “silk cord” given to princes with claims to the crown upon coronation of the new Padishah or Sultan, (or King). Mostly a nothing burger except for the new guy seems like a little more socially liberal and not a wahhabist fan.
Wake me up when something happens that has not happened under a royal succession in the last 2000 years.
