To: kristinn Check out El Mundo today. It is reporting:
Several Arab royal families also spend their summers in Marbella for many years. Thus, there will be a meeting between Michelle Obama and Prince Salman bin Abdul Aziz, governor of Riyadh and brother of the late King Fahd of Saudi Arabia, while another meeting is shuffled from the first lady with the owner of Málaga CF, billionaire businessman, son of Qatar's Interior Minister and member of the Qatari royal family, Abdullah Al Thani.
Haven't seen that in the American press.

Click on "Andulasia" at the top, look at the left hand column of articles about Michelle and click on "Pleasure and Vacation Policy Michelle".
The paper also reports Jesse Jackson Jr is staying at a private house in Marbella and she "could" meet with him. It doesn't say who owns the home Jackson is hanging out in.

Looks like Prince Salman bin Abdul Aziz's son "Ahmed" and telephone number mentioned here in the snippet below about the interrogation of Zubaydah [according to Posner] ? :

...When questioning stalled, according to Posner, CIA men flew Zubaydah to an Afghan complex fitted out as a fake Saudi jail chamber, where "two Arab-Americans, now with Special Forces," pretending to be Saudi inquisitors, used drugs and threats to scare him into more confessions. Yet when Zubaydah was confronted by the false Saudis, writes Posner, "his reaction was not fear, but utter relief."
Happy to see them, he reeled off telephone numbers for a senior member of the royal family who would, said Zubaydah, "tell you what to do." The man at the other end would be Prince Ahmed bin Salman bin Abdul Aziz, a Westernized nephew of King Fahd's and a publisher better known as a racehorse owner. His horse War Emblem won the Kentucky Derby in 2002.
