MBS is setting himself up for the civil war that happens when his father dies.

Saudi Arabia is an empire of the al-Saud family, who conquered other tribes in the 1910s-1920s. They first started out with the first Saudi empire in the 1790s when the Al-Saud family married into the Al-Wahhab family (yeah, that Wahabb) and set up the religious-political alliance with the Saudis promoting Wahabbism (a branch of Salafism or radical islamic belief as we see in the Taliban and the Islamic state).

All the Kings of Saudi Arabia since the 1920s have been the sons of King Abdulazziz ibn Saud - yeah, he had 70 sons and innumerable daughters. Yes, sons.

Now the third generation consists of 3000 princes who treat the country’s coffers as their personal bank.

MBS has no legitimate claim to the throne over the other princes - remember it was passed from brother to brother until now.

So expect the Saudi empire to disintegrate with MBS’s dad’s death
