Saudi Arabia is in big trouble. The al-Saud royal family is in even bigger trouble. For years many people have predicted doom for the Sudeiri seven if they do not correct the problems and rampant corruption left as Fahd's legacy and ineptitude. Attempts at throwing money at the fire to douse it failed miserably. Saudis understand that for Saudi Arabia to survive in the twenty first century, it needs leadership that would take it out of the catacomb economic thinking it has adopted since oil discovery. What the Sudeiris do not understand is that the people of Saudi Arabia do not want them anymore. Their expiration date is up and like bacteria that eats away at the food that expired, bombs are eating away Abdul Aziz dream because of the corruption of his sons.

The true culprits and responsible for the bombs that killed American innocent servicemen are Wahhabis by birth, by action, and by faith. Nejdi tribesmen and Bedouins who have been nurtured and supported by the Sudeiri seven for the purpose of using an Islamic weapon to stifle internal dissent. What starts as an innocent whipping in an old souq by a fanatic Wahhabi Mutawa'a is fast becoming the killing of American "infidels" whose presence in the country is against everything the fanatic Wahhabi sect stands for.

How could Prince Naef explain this to a bewildered Freeh? How could the Sudeiri seven explain that the people who committed the atrocities are Wahhabists just like them ? How could the Sudeiris survive the scrutiny that may follow of a nervous national security investigation ? How could Bandar explain this one to the powers in Washington who view him with personal contempt ?

It comes to CACSA as no surprise that we hear of Syria and then Iran and then Yemen border infiltration. Like a trained dog leading the hunting party to the fox, Naef is naively misleading the US into an empty hole. When CACSA asked one high level intelligence official in Washington about the whole affair, his reply was simple :"The Saudis simply do not know how much we know".

Meanwhile, as long as the charade continues Bandar is convincing his uncles that they are doing a pretty good job at misleading the Americans.
