Leonid Bershidsky, Bloomberg: The New Saudi Heir Is a Dangerous Man

The abrupt change in Saudi Arabia's line of royal succession will probably help maintain the House of Saud's sway over its 31 million people, 70 percent of which are under 30. It is, however, a dangerous move in the context of a new Big Game unfolding in the Middle East, which involves the U.S. and Russia as well as local players.
King Salman named his 31-year-old son, Mohammed bin Salman, as the new crown prince. This is the second succession reshuffle in which the young heir -- and favorite son of the king -- gained influence. In the last two years, MbS, as the new crown prince is often called, was put in charge of Saudi Arabia's two most important portfolios -- defense and the oil industry. He made the diplomatic rounds last month, visiting President Donald Trump in Washington and President Vladimir Putin in Moscow.

We shall see.
Container ship on autopilot in coastal waters?
Life is hard on a ship, but it is not that damn hard.
Is Amor Ftouhi one of Jabber Jay's friends?
Was Canadian Amor Ftouhi upset that he did not make $15 an hour cutting cane?
Is that why he attacked people?
Question #4. Is Jay insane?

Poor Jay. His guy has opened the floodgates to Canada with visas and many a disqruntled cane worker has come including Ftouhi.
Not all the Ftouhis in the world will jihad in America. Eventually more of them will start jihadi=ing in Canada even in deepest darkest B.C.
Soon there'll be a class action suit against 'lil Justin.
Fred,
I am not the dumb sheissmeister that opened Canada's borders up even more.
Justin Trudeau is.
Why did Canada even admit Ftouhi and give him citizenship as easily as a kid can pop quarters into gum machine?
Now 'lil Justin did not admit Ftouohi. It was probably before his time, but the sheissmeister is taking immigration policy in the wrong way. He is being knee-jerk reactionary Leftist.
