		Bandar was the nephew of King Fahd, the aging Saudi monarch, and the grandson of the late king Abdul Aziz, the founder of modern Saudi Arabia, who initiated his country's historic oil-for-security relationship with the United States when he met Franklin D. Roosevelt on the USS Quincy in the Suez Canal on Feb. 14, 1945.
		On the one hand, the House of Saud was an Islamic theocracy whose power grew out of the royal family's alliance with Wahhabi fundamentalism, a strident and puritanical Islamic sect that provided a fertile breeding ground for a global network of terrorists urging a violent jihad against the United States.
		Prince Bandar also protested media reports that referred to those involved in terrorism as "Saudis." Asserting that no terrorists could ever be described as Saudi citizens, he urged the media and politicians to refrain from casting arbitrary accusations against Arabs and Muslims.

		Despite the scandal, according to a London-based dissident, Saad el-Fagih, Muhammad is ''the most visible of his brothers and a secret pretender to the Saudi throne.'' While his power stems mostly from being the son of the afflicted king, he has leveraged that into significant wealth through dealings with Western companies in Saudi Arabia.
		At the Defense Ministry run by his father, Prince Sultan, Khalid was best known for commanding the Arab coalition forces during the first gulf war, and for sticking to General Schwarzkopf like a shadow.

		An official source at the foreign ministry said Wednesday Bandar expressed his wish to be relieved from his responsibilities earlier this month.
		Given the massive amount of wealth Prince Bandar has accumulated because of his position, and the amount of power and access he had, it surprises me that he has resigned.
		Given that he is strongly westernized, while the Saud family leaders seem to be embracing radical Islam, I don't think this bodes well at all.
