A Saudi prince was killed in a car accident Tuesday while driving to the funeral of his cousin, Ahmed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz, the owner of Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner War Emblem...

Why does the scene of Michael at his son's baptism in the Godfather come to mind.....

I can't imagine someone raised in that desert managing to run out of water. Is someone picking off the little princes?

Are you serious?
Do you realize how many "princes" there are in SA? Anyone dies of anything it's even odds it's a prince or princess.

We play golf here all the time during the summer in Phoenix. Gets over 110 degrees quite a bit. The Saudis could use a few beer babes in the desert.

The former head of Saudi intelligence, Prince bin Turki, is an American sympathizer.

This situation stinks!
