More moderate?

Like this?!
Its so easy to fool the West
Changes in places like SA dont come overnight. I dont think anyone in the West is being fooled, but awaits what this purge is going to really mean going forward.
The Clerics and those others who seemed to have lost power and influence will attempt to fight back. It is not as if they are locked up in a dungeon. The princes are being held in a Riz Carlton for petes Sake.
MBS is testing the waters. Did you know the US was first made aware of this move ahead of time?
He visited the US a couple of weeks age for a meeting with Trump and Kushner paid a secret visit to SA last week to be discuss what the move by MBS could mean for SA and the region.
That is now being claimed as a visit to help with the Middle East peace effort after it was leaked.

Agreed
There is something underlying this and it isnt modernisation
The US had better be careful they are not seen as enablers of a ruling faction...again
This is no different to a first century palace cull
In reply to Halliwell & Pro WI
