I think you mean coup not coup d'etat
as if the saudi money is not going to the states any way, think of the iraq war I, II, and III, just to infuse the military with much needed spending. it is pethatic to forget also the fact the if he did not give the money, a coup d'etat would be arranged by the CIA.
I used to live in Rochester one of my old roommates used to drive a limo this royal family has visited in the past and my roommate drove around one of the princes he was very generous with tips and also gifts it is nice to see some of that money spent here..now i wish someone would give me some haha
It's good to be King...of an oil rich country. Nice of him to spend some of it back in the U.S.!!
