This has to be Trump’s, Tillerson’s, Bannon’s influence, cutting down Bush’s, Clinton’s investments...

“David Hearst is editor-in-chief of Middle East Eye. He was chief foreign leader writer of The Guardian . . .”. Author formerly of a leftist rag doesn’t like it; must be something good happening!

What will be interesting is what will he do with them now. He can’t keep them locked up in the Ritz Carlton forever. I️ wonder if the young prince will be ruthless enough to do what must be done

Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri is now disclosing the nature of his resignation, and why he left Lebanon to spend time in Saudi Arabia. It appears the Saudi and regional partners provided evidence that Iran and Hezbollah were planning an assassination targeting Hariri and his family.
