Bandar bin Sultan...Squadron Officer School 1974...only brought one wife with him, Faisal's daughter.....had a very large house built in Arrowhead in Montgomery with a smaller house in the back for his servants...at the end-of-school party at the lodge at the base lakes he gave BGen Earl Peck a going away gift of a quart of motor oil. The guys in his section were arguing about how to apportion the cost of the section coffee mess and he couldn't understand their refusal to just let him pay for it all.

My worries about Saudi Arabia are that we are helping keep the royal family in power...that they will be our friends as long as it is in their family's interest - but I hear the masses are jealous of their loose compliance with Islamic fundamentals and their days/years may be numbered. Any insight (you can share) on that Hound?
