FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda In a Monday interview with Press TV, Kamel Wazni, rejected the speculations that merely attribute the public discontent in Saudi Arabia to the minority in the Eastern Province and argued that “other sizable portions of the Saudis” suffer extreme economic hardship, despite the kingdom’s ample oil revenues.
The high unemployment and poverty rate indicate that the national revenues are not trickling down to the average Saudis and “half of the money — of the oil money — goes to the royal family,” he said.
“The Saudis will eventually realize that and you will see the demonstrations will take place in addition to the eastern part in the whole Saudi Arabia,” Wazni pointed out.
The remarks come as the poor health of the aging Saudi royal family has raised fears of a power vacuum at a time of growing anti-regime protests in the country.
On May 26, 79-year-old Crown Prince Nayef bin Abdul-Aziz Al Saud left Saudi Arabia for medical tests abroad for the second time in less than three months, but so far there has been no word about his whereabouts.
Nayef will take over the rule of the oil-rich kingdom upon the death of King Abdullah, 87, who also suffers from health problems.
People in Saudi Arabia have recently become increasingly vocal in demanding their long-suppressed rights and greater freedoms, while educated youths in the country have taken strides to seriously challenge the very pillars of the hereditary kingdom.
