4. First Fakes News said "State of Emergency". Then they changed that to
"On Alert". Now they're saying "No Alert".

2. Don't forget what happened in Iran in 1979 when the Shaw of Iran
...was sick with cancer and that regime was taken down. Bush is going to lose this one also.

3. The Crown Prince has been running the joint for years
A falafel has more awareness than the King at this point. He's probably on his way out, and they have to put the hammer down, just in case some wahabbi'ist nutjobs think they can exploit this little rumble as the reins formally change hands.

5. But he's the same age
as Fahd, and a chain smoker. So he won't be around for much longer.

Dangerous moment for the Saudi's right now.

8. I don't count him out, and also, I suspect, quite strongly, that he has
...a very precise plan of succession.

The only ones who don't know, necessarily, are us chickens!

All he needs to do is get past this imbroglio. Absent someone making him a target, he will take care of business.
