Mohammed bin Salman's cousin's violent threat to the West: Saud al-Shaalan warns those who 'challenge' Saudi Arabia that 'we are all projects of jihad and martyrdom' - after Biden said there would be 'consequences' for OPEC cut

Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's cousin issued a violent threat against those who 'challenge' Saudi Arabia after President Biden warned there would be 'consequences' for OPEC cutting oil production, just weeks before the midterms.

In a message aimed at 'the West,' Saud al-Shaalan is seen in a video saying 'anybody who challenges the existence of this kingdom, we are all projects of jihad and martyrdom. Anybody that thinks they can threaten us--'

Al-Shaalan's threat comes at a time of sky-high tensions between Washington and Riyadh after OPEC+ cut oil production by two million barrels per day and the Biden administration accused the Saudi Kingdom of aligning itself with Russia and Putin.

Biden, in turn, said he would 'reassess' the U.S.'s alliance with the Saudis as the move was sure to jack up gas prices just ahead of midterm elections. A gallon of gas is now averaging $3.88 in the U.S.

Biden claimed that Riyadh would face 'consequences' as aides announced the U.S. would be reevaluating its relationship with the Saudis.

'There´s going to be some consequences for what they've done with Russia,' Biden said in a CNN interview aired last Tuesday.

Yep. The whole Arab world was on board with our Palestinian settlement. And then someone stole our Presidential election and we got this drooling, incompetent tyrant vegetable.

They are still "allied". They might not be so open about it, politics of course. But they are against Iran. MBS does not care about Palestinians. He sees them as an annoyance. So that issue is gone right now.

Yeah, but the guy who made that happen wasn't a professional politician. He was just a rube from New York City and (horrors) he wasn't part of the Good Old Boy's Club.

IIRC, when Biden went over and kissed Saudi butt, they agreed to increase production for him, but only for 2 months. Seems like they're simply doing what they said they would do.

Given that the West is actively normalizing terrorism regarding Ukraine, what is wrong with some terrorism against the West?
