Ok, so two Saudi Princes make the news in the past several
days and for once none of them are going to jail or being kicked out of
someone's country, at least not yet.
When you read these two stories, you should stop to think
about the bigger picture in the Middle East
and what the Royals of the GCC have feared since day one of the Arab Spring,
Tunisian Virus!!!!
Change.... and change based on no longer being in power.
What the relationship has been between the royal family of
Saudi and Prince Khalid Farhan al-Saud is not a matter of public record and
that is not unusual for the Saudi family.
Is Khalid turning to the more radical side of Muslim faith
by linking up with Dr Sa-ad Rashaed
Mohammad al-Fagih, or is he simply getting out in front of the social, economic
imbalance "theme" the GCC so fears?
And to make things even worse, the highly controversial, in
Saudi that is, Prince Talal brings back up a ignored topic in Saudi.... the
loss of control of the oil market!
One this is for certain, the movement Dr al-Fagih represents
will exploit the move by Prince Khalid and it's not going to make Saudi happy.
Oh, by the way, anything that upsets Saudi and the rest of
the GCC leadership, is music to the ears of Iran / the Persians!!!!
How will this play inside of Saudi is one thing, but how
this plays in the hands of Saudi's enemies.....well... that is another topic
all together!
From the begening of the so called Arab Spring, I stated
Saudi was the Brass Ring the movement would be looking for.
Establishing a Palestinian state may be the flavor of the
day, but the downfall of the Royal families of the Gulf, that is the real
objective for the masses moving the social / economic agenda throughout the
region.
For a family that thrives by staying out of the news, these
two Princes have created more than a disturbance in the force, but then again, that's
what bored, rich people do!!!!
