A native son of Arabia, Mohammed H. Siddiq, describes what the so-called ruling family is all about.

Position: “Saudi” Arabia lies under the sun, over a sea of oil and way behind the rest of the globe.

Definition: it is a museum dedicated to the artistic impropriety of Saudi princes.

Government: it is an authentic model of medievalism.

Secret of success: the king’s decree that local media paint away social and economic ills.

Social features: the key that opens all doors in “Saudi” Arabia is a prince.

Who’s who in “Saudi” Arabia: so and so of Aal Saud, so and so of Aal Saud, so and so of Aal Saud, and the not-yet-born of Aal Saud.

Which way now for the country? King Salman will ignorantly pave the way to take my native land back to ‘Abd al-‘Aziz’s days. He will engage the country into what I call “Aal Saud Internal Development Strategy” (AIDS).

This Saudi absolute monarchy has been going on for the last 80 years. I have good reason for exposing it to the world: a protective interest in the people and the land. I love my native land and its good people.
