A Saudi royal family feud

Tue, 06/30/2009 - 2:03pm

Saudi Prince Khaeld bin Talal has had enough with his billionaire brother Walid's extravagant lifestyle and liberal ways:

Prince Khaled accused Prince Walid bin Talal of disseminating vice and violating the rules of Islamic Sharia in the conservative kingdom. Prince Walid is one of the richest businessmen in the world....

Prince Khaled said he had been forced to speak out after quiet efforts to advise his brother to mend his ways had fallen on deaf ears.

Prince Walid, known for his liberal lifestyle, owns a media empire which features entertainment channels that have long angered conservative Saudis.

Prince Khaled, told an Arabic website that his brother's plan to introduce cinema into Saudi society was the straw that broke the camel's back.

These royal spats don't go public very often. This seems like one worth watching.


Cinema , shu hel kefer heyda
