Describes in detail how the House of Saud has been paying big sums of protection money to the likes of Al Qaeda, and how US officialdom has been unwilling to challenge this Neville ibn Chamberlain appeasement.
Also details some of the Saudi royal family's great corruption and hypocrisy: it describes some of their picking of the public pocket, enough to make the Saudi government show a budget deficit for the last decade. And also how they impose a Talibanesque version of Islam even as they party and consume CH3CH2OH and go to prostitutes. Even to the point of 2/3 of the degrees awarded in Saudi universities being in Islamic studies.
