King Abdullah has a blood clot after a slipped disk. Crown Prince Sultan is on his way back from Morocco, where he breaks in new brides in the privacy of a fellow king's kingdom.
Both may pass on in the next few years, leaving Prince Nayef, a 79-year old Minister of the Interior, who hates Americans and is a Truther and denies AQ had anything to do with 9/11. First assignment when I arrived in Saudi in 1975 was to read a draft white paper on how to take over Saudi oil fields. I have the final product here in my bedroom.
It may need updating if Nayef and his hateful horde take over KSA.
"Much have I seen and known; cities of men And manners, climates, councils, governments, ...the fortune of us that are the moon's men doth ebb and flow like the sea, being govern'd, as the sea is, by the moon" [Henry IV, I.ii.31-33] HISTORY NEVER REPEATS ITSELF, BUT IT OFTEN RHYMES "There is a Providence that protects idiots, drunkards, children and the United States of America." Otto von Bismarck
