Very interesting. The Al-Khalifa family were always moderate muslims. I lived in Bahrain in the 80’s when his grandfather (?) was the Amir. The elder Al-Khalifa had quite the eye for western women. He had a small house on a private beach and only white folks were allowed (besides him) on that beach. He used to sit out on his little porch and pick a hot one out, ask her to come up and visit, and if she was “compliant”, she left with a Rolex watch. It was a widely known “secret”.
*snicker* Sounds like the man was ‘living the dream’ of any guy on the planet.
Pimpin’!
