The Guardian is reporting that the House of Saud threatened to help terrorists if the British government continued to investigate the bribes paid to Saudi Prince Bandar.

Saudi Arabia’s rulers threatened to make it easier for terrorists to attack London unless corruption investigations into their arms deals were halted, according to court documents revealed yesterday.

Previously secret files describe how investigators were told they faced “another 7/7” and the loss of “British lives on British streets” if they pressed on with their inquiries and the Saudis carried out their threat to cut off intelligence.

Prince Bandar, the head of the Saudi national security council, and son of the crown prince, was alleged in court to be the man behind the threats to hold back information about suicide bombers and terrorists. He faces accusations that he himself took more than £1bn in secret payments from the arms company BAE.

It should be noted that one of Bandar’s nicknames is “Bandar Bush”, because he is considered a sort of virtual member of the Bush clan by the family.

One of the future goals of any future US administration should be the removal from power of the House of Saud, and the imprisonment of those who held the reigns of power.
