If your own society is so tribal and xenophobic that they support MBS over.....well, whomever the fuck it is that isn't MBS..that's a you problem. We didn't (and can't ) make you that way. That's just who and what your society really is.
For our part, we have to deal with whomever happens to grasp that gold ring. Sure, we'd love to have some influence, and we have it now....but whatever we have is ultimately a product of what you...your society, is willing to give us. I mean...I can't make this much more clear...I think that you should start shooting and not stop until there are no surviving royals in your country. If whomever it is that rises from that rubble isn't our boy - I'm okay with that. I think that you should do it.
Why won't you do it? Why do you keep complaining about outside forces when the problem is very much a domestic issue? We're at your mercy, here. Whatever it is that you decide to do, we have to deal with. You're our equals, real people, ungovernable except by consent.......right......?
(don't confuse my willingness to put my boot on the back of your neck with not being on your side, lol - honestly, the only reason I'd do that is because I detest people who wine about how others are to blame for the problems that they've created, that only they can solve. Man the fuck up.)
As far as the bezos thing...idiotic, as our own would-be ruling family has realized. Bezos is richer than Croesus. If you try to blackmail him he'll just squash you like a fucking bug, even if you're a saudi prince.
As I told you thousand times, as the history of the aftermath of imperial powers' foreign policy; domestic dictators are pretty much the problem of the west, put by the west, supported by the west and overthrowing them leads to direct clash with their western sponsors.
