Mena: I was surprise to see Saudi prince Alwaleed one of the top 20 billionaires in the world ordered arrested by crown prince Bin Salman for corruption. I taught the billionaire businessmen and bankers were the power behind the thrones and governments in the world. the Saudi assets of billionaire businessman prince Alwaleed has been frozen by the Saudi government.

At least twenty Saudi princes and high ranking bureaucrats has been arrested in Prince Salman anti corruption campaign. Some expert stated that crown prince Salman is doing a purge to consolidate his power in order to replace his father King Abdullah as king without challenge. According to conspiracy theorists billionaire bankers and businessmen ruled the world the case of Prince alwaleed being arrested remind me of Russian president Vladimir Putin ordering the arrest of the richest Russian businessman the billionaire Mikael Khodokovsky and taking over his oil business because he didnt pay taxes but really because Micael Khordokosky was challenging the power of president Putin.d

Mena:I thought the billionaires businessmen and bankers were the most powerful people in the world but there is a possibility the royal families, religious families and secret society families are the most powerful. Saudi Prince Alwaleed is a very famous international investor that financial journalist rate below great USA investors Warren Buffett and George Soros. One of Prince Alwaleed smartest investment was in Citibank. Every year Prince Alwaleed fortune was ranked in the Forbes international 400 magazine.

Prince Alwaleed was very popular in the media because of his luxurious lifestyle.Prince Alwaleed own two boeing 747 jumbo jet passenger aircrafts that he used private jet, he also own one of the biggest yacht in the world. luxurious shops in Paris, London and Beverly Hills will close their doors to the public in order for Prince Alwaleed to shop with his family.

I was surprised to see the internationaly famous billionaire investor prince Alwaleed arrested and detained in a luxurious hotel were he is sleeping on a mattress on the floor.

Saudi Arabia's Al-Waleed bin Talal - the billionaire tycoon arrested in an anti-graft crackdown by his cousin Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman - is no stranger to controversy and making headlines.
Ranked among the richest men in the world, the 62-year-old investor is the grandson of two of the Arab world's most high-profile historic figures: King Abdulaziz Al-Saud, the founder of modern Saudi Arabia, and Riad al-Solh, Lebanon's first prime minister.
Prince Al-Waleed first burst into the business-meets-politics scene in the late 1980s, when he began building what was to become a global empire of banks, luxury hotels and media holdings.
Over the next decade, the prince cultivated an image as a canny investor, proponent of Saudi modernisation and, eventually, staunch critic of Donald Trump.
In 2015, he slammed Trump on Twitter for his rhetoric during the US presidential campaign, calling him a 'disgrace to America' and urging him to drop out.
In his response, Trump ridiculed him on Twitter as a 'dopey prince'.
Prince Mohammed, Saudi Arabia's future king, is meanwhile a close ally of Trump.
On the surface, the cousins appear to share the same views, both supporting the right of women in the kingdom to drive. But reports of intense rivalry between the two have also long featured in royal circles.
Prince Al-Waleed's arrest is likely to send shock waves across a host of companies that count him as a major investor.
The Kingdom Holding Company - in which the prince has a 95 percent stake - owns The Savoy in London, the Fairmont Plaza and the famed George V hotel in Paris.

The prince, known for having a taste for luxury, also has stakes in Lyft, Twitter, News Corp, Euro Disney and 21st Century Fox.
Kingdom Holding's share price dropped 7.6 percent at the close of the Saudi stock exchange on Sunday, in the wake of news of its owner's arrest.
Forbes estimates his worth at $18.7 billion, landing him in position number 45 on its list of billionaires this year.
He is also an active philanthropist who donates, by his own account, millions of dollars each year to charities.
An arch defender of women's rights in a country where women face a raft of restrictions, and an outspoken proponent of political reform, the prince has never made a secret of his views.
A vocal supporter of the five pillars or tenets of Islam, he has nonetheless blamed Saudi tradition for holding women back from advancing in society. He has said he once financed the flight training of an aspiring Saudi woman pilot.
The businessman spent his college years in upstate New York and northern California, earning a bachelor's degree in business from Menlo College in Silicon Valley and a master's degree in social science from Syracuse.
Al-Waleed first appeared on Forbes' list of billionaires in 1988, one year after the annual list was first published.
In line with his reputation as a lover of the press, Forbes said it was the prince himself who had first contacted the magazine

Although no faces are shown Saudi government source says that the men on thin mattresses include Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, one of Middle East's richest men
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia ordered dramatic round-up of top princes and ministers in 'corruption probe'
Donald Trump, on an extended tour of the Middle East, tweeted full-scale support for the crackdown saying: 'Some of those they are harshly treating have been “milking” their country for years!'
But it is widely being seen as part of palace coup to guarantee his power base with the heads of the country's national guard and navy also arrested

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5326439/Saudi-billionaire-Alwaleed-not-really-free-says-source.html

EXCLUSIVE: Freed Saudi billionaire Alwaleed is effectively under house arrest and NOT really in control of his stakes in Twitter, Lyft and Citigroup despite paying $6 BILLION for freedom
Prince Alwaleed bin Talal was 'freed' from his five-star 'prison', Saudi authorities revealed at the weekend and allowed him to be videoed there
He was rounded up in November along with other princes and billionaires accused of corruption but paid a $6 billion 'fine'
Alwaleed, who has the kingdom's largest private fortune, claimed to a Reuters journalist that everything was fine and there had been a 'misunderstanding'
Source in kingdom tells DailyMail.com that Alwaleed is not really back in control, will be closely monitored by authorities and not allowed to travel
'Don't buy the c**p of Alwaleed being treated right. Why does he need to be arrested and hung upside down to discuss things?' the source said

 -
Interview: Alwaleed, once a garrulous media figure, was interviewed by Reuters on Saturday in the Ritz Carlton, where he sat at a desk he described as his 'office', decorated with a mug with his picture. He claimed a 'misunderstanding' had led to his arrest and that it had been resolved

 -
Propaganda: Alwaleed gave a guided tour of his 'suite' in the Ritz Carlton, showing his kitchenette and vegan food and saying he had been well treated. But a source in the kingdom, who has knowledge of MBS's thinking, said it was an attempt to undo damage from an earlier BBC report

 -
Questions: Alwaleed spoke on camera to Reuters on Saturday. But a source said it was not the full story. 'Don't buy the c**p of Alwaleed being treated right,' said the source.

Mena: The powerful billionaire intrenational businessman Prince Alwaleed has been release from detention by the Saudi government headed by the crown prince Mohammed Bin Salman after paying $6 billion to the government. Prince alwaleed is a very charismatic and successful international businessman who is always giving interview to business TV station like CNBC and Bloomberg. Prince Alwaleed is also included in article every year in the Forbes World 400 magazine list of the richest people in the world. I was surprize when Prince Alwaleed was arrested like a commoner.

In the USA and Western world the billionaire businessmen and bankers are more powerful then the government and control the government. they are the one who finance the election of the politicians. In China, Russia and Saudi Arabia I think the governments of those country are more powerful then the politicians. The richest businessman in Russia the billionaie Michael Khordokovski was challenging Russian president Vladimir Putin power. The Russian government arrested for corruption Khordokovski put him in prison for 10 years and took away most of his wealth. The Chinese government arrested billionaire Xu Ming for corruption and they arrested so many corrupt millionaires and billionaires that Chinese businessmen are afraid of the communist government. In Saudi Arabia the King and royal family are worth billions they dont need money from businessmen and they will arrest them if they challenge the royal family.

WW I, WW II, and WW III were planned years ago.

Our current war of religion was planned years ago. I am getting tired of the Middle East and perpetual war.

Does MENA mean Middle East and North Africa?

While the Sons of Abraham fight, the countries of the Far East are creating a New World.

"Middle East" is a British colonial imperialist term as the colonialists divided up the world East of Britain as "Near East"{Egypt], "Middle East"[Jordan, Arabia, Iran, etc] and "Far East"{ China, Japan, etc.]. "Far East" did not refer India, Pakistan, Bangladesh[East Pakistan] but collectively as "the Sub-Continent'.

"North Africa" and "sub-Sahara Africa" were tendentiously racist colonialist terms meant to slice off Ancient Egypt from the rest of Africa. Originally, "sub-Sahara Africa" was named "Negro Africa" then "Black Africa". The original racist intent is now hidden under the appellation "sub-Sahara Africa".

All those Saudi Arabian billionaires should just thank STANDARD OIL for discovering
vast reserves of oil under the sand wastes of Arabia. A primitive sand-trekking people suddenly elevated to a superficial veneer of modern technological civilization but still committed to a primitive culture under the rubric of Islam.
