Prince Bandar bin Sultan, Head Of Saudi Intelligence, Has Been Sacked
In the aftermath of the disastrous, for both the US and Saudi Arabia, false flag campaign to replace the Syrian regime with one which would be amenable to allowing a Qatari gas pipeline to pass underneath the Al-Qaeda rebel infested country, there were numerous rumors that the reign of Saudi's infamous former ambassador to the US and current intelligence chief, Prince Bandar "Bush" bin Sultan - the man who we suggested was the puppetmaster behind the entire failed operation - had come to an end. Some two months ago, Shia Post reported that "News sources announced that the chief of the Saudi spying apparatus Bandar bin Sultan has been dismissed... Since creation of crisis in Syria by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey, Bandar bin Sultan’s name has been heard time and again in tandem with the Syrian crisis."
Moments ago, in a tersely worded statement from the Saudi Press Agency, it was indeed confirmed that, perhaps in response to his failed handling of the Syrian conflict, Prince Bandar has indeed been sacked.
A royal order announced here today that Prince Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz was relieved of his post as Chief of General Intelligence upon his request and that General Staff Yousif bin Ali Al-Idreesi was assigned to act as Chief of General Intelligence. The royal order will be carried out by the concerned authorities with immediate effect.
Hardly surprising, here is the explanation why the person who was once one of America's most bosom allies in the Middle East, just got the boot:
Bandar bin Sultan is one of the main mindsets and players of regional insecurity especially in Syria, Iraq and Lebanon. His supports for terrorist groups acting in Syria are not hidden to anybody. This Saudi prince has very close relations with the armed terrorists in Syria. Recently he had lashed out at the Al-Saud family over its way of backing terrorists. These criticisms have annoyed Saudi monarch Abdullah.
Nevertheless, perhaps one of the reasons for firing Bandar bin Sultan was the issue raised by some Saudi authorities as Riyadh’s “failure of foreign policy” regarding the Syrian crisis. Some of the political pundits have said that Sultan’s performance of the recent months have even worried Washington. Now, it is expected that with the designation of Mohammad bin Nayef bin Abdul Aziz as the new chief of the Saudi security, the Washington-Riyadh ties will be normalized since this figure of the Saudi royal family is trusted by the US officials.
Apart from all surmises, Bandar bin Sultan is considered as one of the successors of the monarchial regime. Bandar has been regarded as a powerful figure in the war of power among the Saudi princes. It seems that his obstinacy in decision-making was another cause of King Abdullah’s fear of his power. This fear has reached the extent that the senile Saudi king has made up his mind to sack Bandar bin Sultan from the most important security apparatus of the country in a bid to alleviate part of the internal criticisms and promote Mohammad bin Nayef’s position. Furthermore, changes in the Saudi security apparatus will pave the way for maintaining the demands of the US regime; especially that, according to some news sources, Mohammad bin Nayef’s appointment has been done after the US officials’ order.
But don't cry for the Prince - his net worth is estimated to be well in the billions.

And another puppet shall take his place.
Too bad he wasn't beheaded.
Who knows maybe he was behind a planned coup
Saudi and intelligence is a oxymoron
I heard that there is some guy from U-Crane that might get the job.
Bandar Bin Obama Bush
..and he has such soft hair, cushy oral opening…
Like the one he has been using on US state and intel…
But there is trouble now that this fluid conduit is being cut loose.
Off Topic, but Kyle is back asking; "What are you going to do?"
http://www.cnbc.com/id/101584588
He says that their bonds have been acting terribly in this Nikkei selloff because "yields haven't collapsed". Not sure what he means by that.
Scratching my head on that one also.
I watched it again and my guess is he means that yields should have fallen further while the nikkei has had this 15% drop, But that's kind of crap. First off the 10yr JGB is down to .60 from 1% a year ago. So...i mean....holy shit. Secondly this has not been a vilent drop. No 700 point dumps. It's been a very steady orderly demolition. I have no doubt the Nikkei will reclaim 14k tonight.
Basically I think Kyle was flailing there if that was his rationale. Also he believe a government (like the rest of them) that have all been faking data, will now release elevated inflation statistics, that they know will cause a bond selloff.
Meh...
Perhaps a little time off now, say some sun and some fun in Sochi.
Oh..., wait.
Prince, can I have my picnic blanket back? It's almost time to eat!
But he lost all that power.
There's another shoe to drop.
Watch what Mossad does to Barry over Syria.
money can't buy everything.
I still remember the grand old glory days of him & Shrub, hand in hand, romantically strolling throughout the White House Rose Garden & grounds.
He looks to be in need of a fresh goat
They so enjoy picnicing there that they wear their picnic blankets and napkins most of the time.
Jerry Jones got a suite he will share with him.
I wonder in private do the bush and clintons refer to their kids as prince and princess? Last time I heard, and it was years, there were 5000 princes in arabia. If you have a business, and a prince wants it, you cannot refuse his offer and must sell your business to him.
"If you have a[n] [ass], and a prince wants it, you cannot refuse his offer and must sell your [ass] to him.
Pricelss Herd just priceless
exactly, now that Sochi is done and safe, thank you very much ... you may go!
Typical behaviour, there are no thanks and appreciation anymore ... not that I feel bad for the Prince because I am sure he will be well taken care of, but still as soon as Sochi is over off you go, we dont need you anymore ... sad really sad
he is a fiduciary.. not a gambler ( so he says).
Me, I am betting the wad on JPY doing the kamikaze thing.
(I keep telling the wife that Divine Wind is a good thing every time she walks past the bathroom.)
Easiest trade in history. Fukushima guarantees it. All he did was bet on widespread death from nuclear fallout. Now well under way.
Easy money when you know several hundred million people will die within a relatively short timespan, and take the economy with it.
OTOH, there is nothing Kyle or anyone else can do about it, so why not make money off of it?
I don't know if he's a monster or a saint, but either way he's going to get much, much richer.
Right now, he's trying to figure out how to short the Pacific Northwest. Done deal.
He has the look of a perv obsessed with little boys. Typical saudi prince.
he looks to be more of a goat lover
Leave your dress on the desk and get the fuck out of here!
What we need now is a leaked telephone conversation...been a few weeks.
Re: U-Crane +10, made me laugh!
Not so sure about that.Some of the royals are smart, I went to school with a couple.
But now with have a major player that was an obstacle to better relations with Eurasia
out of the picture.A core supporter of the US/Saudi relationship shitcanned.
A move to abandon exclusive petrodollar sales may well have just been telegraphed.
That was my first thought, overt gesture SA backing away from US, speculated by JW, PCR, and others saying SA will start taking Euros & Yuan for oil along with USD, a severe blow to petrodollar status.
"They used to be camel herders!", my father commented only two weeks ago as we looked at the Dubai World Cup and the princes were swarming everywhere. My father is from a bygone colonial era, so this is not unusual for him to say things like this.
4 generations
Camels, Mercedes, Lamborginis, Camels.
Shit ain't gonna last forever.
This is huge. To give Bandar the boot in such a way means that something big is shifting beneath the sand.
I think this is further evidence of a big thaw in the US / Saudi (dollar / oil) partnership.
Prelude to something larger going on?
Quite the opposite. He pissed Putin off, and now we know where the wind is blowing - and it isn't West. If the Saudi family ever wants to do business with Russia, Putin is going to want Bandar's head on a stake.
SA is on their own now. I hope they learn to speak Mandarin.
This is my take on the event. One does not make such threats to Putin from such a position of weakness without paying the price. Had he not been dismissed, the entire House of Saud would be left with no friends in high places.
Bingo! Putin shut him and the Saudi's down by stopping any terror incidents during the Olympics. Major embarassment. The winds and sands are indeed shifting...
Post Ukraine east referendum - Putin was or is going to provide US with equal or better aggravation - best place is SA - since Bandar was so vocal about his financing and operation of chechen terrorists communicating direct to Putin
SA is only massive place of US stability in the ME - fucking those guys around with Iran on the ground is definitely way to keep US occupied and blame Obama
He didn't just piss off Putin - this asshat antagonized Putin into walking into the Ukraine. Everyone wants him gone.
In a year he'll either be dead or King.
Nonsense. The players change but the game remains the same.
They got all the Saudis out of the U.S. after 9-11, so they ain't that stupid.
Yes, but they had the Bush team's help and direction.
Now that his official bodyguards have been dismissed ... Putin might see if he gets to suffer worse humiliations ... then kill him.
Death should be his release, not his punishment.
According to the article, he asked to be dismissed.
If that is the case, perhaps he no longer feels comfotable jetting around the world. Maybe he plans to stay inside Saudi Arabia for a while in hopes that Putin will forgive, forget, or die. Good luck, Prince.

Bandar/Syrian connection video feature from 2013.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwLT_8S_Tuo
21.40 (21 minutes, 40 seconds) into the clip get a load of Bandar what he says about the Bin Ladin family in Saudi Arabia. And on into around the 28:00 minute mark you see the connection with Bush and Bin Ladin.
true, but still... appears to be panic in the ranks... something big is stirring.
Major shift in alliances under way. Looks like it anyway.
Maybe the next puppet will be more suitable to Chinese leadership ;-) ...
saudi royals are more loyal to the U.S. and Israel than their own people, and they are not fooling anyone. Brute force and money keeps them in power. but, its only a matter time before they are toppled.
Watch that change.
( there's also the chance that those Chinese missiles may develop a mind of their own, that would be fun. )
Hopefully Putin will sprinkle some Polonium under his head scarf.
I don't know that Bandar is a puppet. I think he's one of the satanic warlocks fairly high in the food chain. One of the thieves vying for power. I'll be interested to see where he lands - whether or not he tries to regain influence and power, or retires back to the looney bin he spent the last few months in state side.
I would loved to have been a fly on the wall in the back rooms, sacrificial chambers and ivory towers to see the hysterical conversations between the cadre of sociopaths trying to manage this international abomination.
Yes..., the story within the story.
Movie material. But is Bandar getting canned the end or the beginning of the story?
as Bush's Other Brother - Im sure the stories overr cigars went way back on the FDR Putch organized by his grandfather in 1933 broken by Smedley and he may have had aspirations for the big chair - Its good to be the King!
I would loved to have been a fly on the wall in the back rooms...
In other words, you wish you could've been born James R. Clapper?
Of course he's a puppet. Francis told me that the Jooz control everything.
Into the Bin with Bin Sultan ! (attempt at a Daily Mail "peoples level" headline).
Bandar has dual Saudi and Syrian citizenship? He was the Saudi ambassador to the US, unless he was moonlighting as the Syrian ambassador too. :)
Needs a new left tackle if he's right handed. They usually are.
Why not Saudi/Israel... Ah this was Henry Reid. My Bad.
Bandar bin Shit-Canned
Good point. Shit-Canned, as opposed to sacked, is the appropriate term in this instance, as Bandar remains sackless.
Is he spending more time with his wives?
and camels.
No way hombre.
A six foot ladder and they are anybodies,
Baby got bactrian.
I didn't know you could sack a sheik or...err....are we talking about sheiks in the sack?
Not my kind of sacking...I had a sack full of nickels kind of sacking in mind....
Nett worth in Billions, how do these camel breeders get this money!!!
Just like the Wall Street Rats, they STEAL it.
No, they get it the honest way, they pump it out of the ground...
Still stolen from the average Saudi citizen. The money gets vacumed by these aholes just like wall street vacums up and defrauds pension funds etc...
>>camel breeders get this money
Sheikh Imran sums it up:
http://youtu.be/Wf-frX_KbmE
"Net worth in Billions, how do these camel breeders get this money!!!"
Like 'most' billionaires---not playing by he rules....
Now he has time to hang out at the Bush ranch.
Bush's ranch beats Chicago any day.

if the saudi's had any fucking balls they would invade syria with tanks and air planes and just fucking kick some mother fucking syrian ass themselves in the open daylight.
you think china is going to stop them?
saudi arabia just wants to make the u.s. nato look good so the u.s. has no back pedalling to do and can save face on the matter of not having their saudi dogs be seen as the broad daylight warriors that they are.
it's time for some motherfucking syria versus saudi arabia war. of course the emirati don't wannna do shit but pay money, so charge them double to watch. ---but no more mere saudi unding of terrorists with some bullshit weapons , but full scale motherfuck you in the ass war. let's take off the gloves and put on the camels.
it's time to pop a cap in this .
hooooaaa-snackbar-and a happy passover!

Tom Clancy's ghost approved this message.
Clancy was an Operation Mockingbird (el see eye ahh duh) writer. He said people were shocked how accurate his stuff was. He was an insurance salesman or adjuster who said he got his info talking to MIC guys in bars around MD and VA.
More like the agency helped make him a top author. Glorifying Jack Ryan.
Yep, I was really into his work as a teenager. Sum of All Fears, and all that.
And then it kind of dawns on you that its a recruitment tool/propaganda as much as it is literature.

Wow, sacked for "failure of foreign policy". So, uh, when are heads going to roll in Washington?
Well, well, well, one of the most wanted on the list of Americas Most Wanted for financing two of the Saudi's hijackers of 911.
Putin is very fully aware of this & that of the perpetrators of thevFalse Flag of 911.
The Zionions roads are coming to a close.
Wasn't this the shithead who met with Putin and hinted at terrorism if Putin wouldn't back off support for Syria? Or am I thinking of a different Saudi?
Him.
And you may have noticed, it was either a bluff, or fully countered by Putin.
Which is why he had to go bye-bye. Sauds have enough problems without Vlad fucking them as well.
No more fun with the harems for him.
In addition to his billions in Switzerland, he also gets to keep his camels and harem.
...and the race horses that live in his 747.
Don't forget this guy was in on 9/11, Iran-Contra, and the clusterfuck in the 90's in what was once called Yugoslavia.
The main question...is the next guy just as in bed with terrorists, worse, or perhaps slightly less?
Glass-Steagall
Vladimir, please do not attack our humble Kingdom. We have sacked the offender who was rude to you. He has been sent to the oilfields.
Saudis began questioning the benefits of special relationship with US after getting stabbed in back over Syria and nuke negotiations with Iran. Bandar was arguing for continued alignment with west (praying for Jeb 2016) but others advocated pivot to the east. Bandar getting the boot brings dire portends for the petrodollar.
Wouldn't it be funny if he ran off with all the Bush Family's Lucre Trust Money, that its missing like the trillions missing the day before 9-11. Poof!
Hope he releases the correspondences between him and Rumsfeld during 911
Indeed. This guy knows where all the bodies are buried...
Just the distraction Obama needs right now, some fresh meat for the base.
Any chance that it wasn't a real sacking, but instead a lateral transfer to Greystone?
Most of the geriatric regime in Saudi Arabia is but one heartbeat away from the Big Sack, anyway. The destabilizing of the Saudi government has long been a leading candidate for the black swan event that finally brings about fin de siècle.
That's about an 8.6 on the geopolitical Richter scale.
SA is a fascist police state. Ok, we all know that.
Who was running him here in the USA?
Like changing the director of a Shakespearean play, the script will remain the same.
Jim Willie told us months ago that Bandar had been blown up and would probably die from it.
He didn't get "sacked" he got "wacked". The question should be who killed him?
Was it an inside job because he was making his own deals off the reservation? Or was it indeed Syria with a little help from some outside friends who had interests with Syria.
Thierry Meysson of Voltairenet was one of the first to report him missing from both Riyadh and his home in Aspen.
http://www.voltairenet.org/article175173.html
The meeting with Putin last year was from an earlier meeting file picture. Question is why? And his visit with Jerry Jones in Dallas was never corroborated... If he's in hiding and it was a "double" that got it??? God knows the terrorists that these motherfuckers are they don't leave home without one might have happened?
No wonder the Bush family made him an honorary son!
When he went to visit Putin in Moscow last August to lay down the law, I always thought it was unfortunate that he wasn't taken out on his return flight to Saudi.
saudi arabia is the usa's greatest achievement in advancing democracy around the world [/sarc]
With all the evil this guy has been part of, he deserves to be more than sacked... What would you all suggest? ;-)
his karma will catch up to him... and i suspect that its not going to be long, or pretty when it happens.
I would assume his billions will serve him well in some far away place. After all, he's still a very valuable tool of destruction, regardless of his "official" position.
he knows way too much... if he has really lost power, the others will feed him to sharks. too much risk having him just hanging out rogue.
De-gonadded then beheaded in public...
Really is too bad so much of the world's oil and to a lesser degree natural gas is under Saudi Arabia. Never had much interaction with Saudi women (applies to almost all Westerners) but the Saudi men I have met whether it was in Boston during college or afterwards are one of the few ethnic groups I have very little positive feelings or experiences towards.
"... Prince Bandar bin Sultan... "
All these monkeys are named this. There's a thousand of them. And they're all wearing Pizza Hut table cloths on their heads. How can we tell?
Anyway, when they say "sacked" we know he was sacked. Out in a hole in the desert, Harry Reid style.
It's time the Saudi's get hit back with all the shit they have dished out. Fuck'm!
But don't cry for the Prince
I'm gonna party like it's 1999.
Looks like Bandar & Obomba mighta been separated at birth...
Now who will BAE pay off for more jet orders now that Bandar is gone?
will the military industrial complex need a bail-out? are they tbtf?

Once again, why I come here: For news, not just the financial ins'n outs, but the really interesting dirt. The stuff that makes me nod my head and smile, saying, "Oh-hh-hh-hh-hh-ye-ee-ee-aa-aah…"
This will never get mentioned on popular media. But it's important. It's a lynchpin event.
Do more of this, Tyler.

So,the Saudis are dealing with China.They know they blew the Syrian situation and were lied to by the Administration.They got sucked in with the Shia hate story along with the development of atomic weapons by Iran story headed by the current far right wing Israeli government.Iran will regain its economy through the Eurasian trade pact with Russia & China now.The Saudis know that America is now self sufficient in oil so it's a new ball game.And with the slow world economy,they also understand that OPEC is essentially dead in the water with no pricing power.Russia & Saudi are the two big producers.I think Saudi now sees where the future is.It's with over half of the earth's population in the east which includes India.Saudi Arabia knows it is a lot farther ahead financially to make peace with Iran so that it can partake in the alternative financial system that's being developed by China & Russia.They've already got the design with the BRIC countries.It's also like an alternative IMF with each member putting in billions to support their own.They'll need the Saudi support.And,guess what?Saudi's gold.It all means gradually less recycling of Dollars back into America and less support for the American national debt which is currently over 17.5 trillion and projected to climb over 19.5 soon.Slowly,the Market will force the U.S. to control itself financially.There's one expression for the whole picture and it's "lack of confidence around the globe in Washington politicians."They've been caught in their lies internationally too many times now and they look like amateurs compared to Russian diplomats.You thought it was the support headed by John McCain for Al Queda in Syria?No,it's also McCain's support along with the CIA's help in the Ukraine using right wing neo-nazi groups to overthrow a government that finally broke the camels back.What stupid politicians and the head of the CIA don't understand is that ordinary people worldwide are watching their stupidity on the evening news.What a sick joke Washington has turned out to be.Two bit thugs.Obama really got screwed royally in the public's eye when he decided to get Republican support by letting McCain do the dirty work for him.
Fucking waste of space accidents of geography.
This is the happiest news with Bandar's name in it since Putin grabbed him by the scrotum and threw him out on his jowls.
Prince Bandar
Dun that.
Guess he won't be hosting the Dubai International Sodomy Festival this year.
