Here's your Saudi corruption

This is the type of person we've chosen to partner with. $450 million for one painting. frick him.
He tortures his relatives and extorts their wealth and then like the spoiled pussy that he really is, tries to hide this. Not one American life is worth losing over the protection Saudi Arabia. Let the Iranians crush them as far as I'm concerned. Ditto Israel.
U.S. government intelligence and a Middle East art-world figure familiar with the purchase say Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman used a proxy to purchase the 500-year-old ‘Salvator Mundi’

“The image of the crown prince spending that much money to buy a painting when he’s supposed to be leading an anticorruption drive is staggering,” said Bruce Riedel, a former CIA officer and leading expert on Saudi politics.

Finally get a good Muslim to run the KSA and we freak out over a painting. What does this have to do with corruption?

Netflix has a good documentary on the Da Vinci painting in question.
I really don't care how people spend their money.
There are no heroes in that part of the word. You chose your friends and allies for strategic purposes only.

Wow, do I really have to explain it to you?

You act like the $450M was an expense.
Posted on 12/8/17 at 8:31 am to Big12fan
I don't give a frick about some goofy painting that dick overpaid for. I'm more concerned about the 3000+ people KSA had a hand in killing on 9/11 that we still don't have all the info on.

Yeah, please explain how him buying a painting is corruption.

Ah yes, a Clowns in America displeased with the changes in Saudi Arabia.
I dont recall hearing the cia talk about the “optics” of Waleed’s hundreds a millions of dollars given to the clinton foundation. Atleast the crown prince got a painting for his money... what exactly did Waleed get for his money?
Well, the cost of buying Hillary is now apparently being strung up by your feet and interrogated.

Money laundering or using the money he is extorting from the people he arrested

You're really this spun up over who bought a damn painting?
You had the option to out bid him you know.

The saudi royals have spent huge amounts of money on luxury goods for as long as I can remember.
Can you show me your outrage and indignation when Waleed gave hundreds if millions to clinton foundation to buy favor?

The CIA is losing its touch if this is the best they can do.

Do you think he needed to take their money in order to buy the painting?
Posted on 12/8/17 at 8:37 am to uway
True desperation on their part.

$450MM is chump change.
These guys have trillions hidden all over the world.

What's most interesting is the painting sold a few years back from a New Orleans gallery for 10k.
We all missed out on that one baws.

Can he not buy whatever he wants with his own money?

The painting is an investment. It will increase in value over the years...smart move.
