BREAKING: Saudi Crown Prince, Muhammad Salman Narrowly Escapes Assassination Att by Nksleek: 11:20pm On Dec 15, 2019
Saudi Crown Prince Muhammad Bin SaIman survived attack on arrival at an event.

In a video circulating online, Gunmen opened fire on Muhammad Bin Salman while exchanging pleasantries after he stepped down from his SUV to grace the event.

He was however smuggled back into his bulletproof vehicle by security details that foiled the assassination attempt.

Recall, Reuters had reported that some members of Saudi Arabia’s ruling family and business elite have expressed frustration with the leadership of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman following the largest-ever attack on the kingdom’s oil infrastructure last month.

It has sparked concern among several prominent branches of the ruling Al Saud family, which numbers around 10,000 members, about the crown prince’s ability to defend and lead the world’s largest oil exporter, according to a senior foreign diplomat and five sources with ties to the royals and business elite. All spoke on condition of anonymity.

The attack has also fanned discontent among some in elite circles who believe the crown prince, known in the West by the initials MbS, has sought too tight a grip on power, the sources said. Some of these people said the event has also fueled criticism among those who believe he has pursued an overly aggressive stance towards Iran.

“There is a lot of resentment” about the crown prince’s leadership, said one of the sources, a member of the Saudi elite with royal connections. “How were they not able to detect the attack?"

This person added that some people in elite circles are saying they have “no confidence” in the crown prince, an assertion echoed by the four other sources and the senior diplomat.

Watch the video of the attack below;

He's alleged to have ordered the hit on Kashoggi.

No surprise here.

Perhaps it was even staged.

Who knows with these people.
