| #17 My reaction was, as everyone is corrupt in SA, they can arrest whoever they like. I'd say mostly about appeasing the clergy and populace as unpopular reforms and austerity pushed. |

| #16 King Salman is a Good King. He is cleaning house which was sorely needed. I back him ardently just as I do Sisi. Pray they succeed. I do. I have your back, Salman. |

| #9 There is a power change going on. This is how its done in monarchies. Nothing new or shattering. The new guy is very western in thought. If he lives through it, soddi will change dramatically over the next ten years. |

| #8 Wondering where Talal's billions end up. Just a unrelated note? The online support for the pIslamic state. Mostly in Sauder land but Muslims in the USA came in second. |

| #7 Talal is a smarmy piece of sh*t. No friend of America and he hates Trump |

| #4 The Trump Effect? The frackers effect. Saudi Arabia was always a totally artificial creation depending on huge inflow of petrodollars. |
