Jeet Heer, Sen. Chris Murphy link Jared Kushner to Saudi Arabia

There’s a lot of weird stuff going on in Saudi Arabia right now, none of which is entirely clear. Jeff Blehar sums it up:

Last 24 hours in Saudi Arabia:
– vast swathe of ruling elite arrested
– prince dies mysteriously
– army shutters land/sea entrances to Yemen

Folks this ain't normal. I have no idea what's going on, but this ain't normal.

One interesting detail: ones being arrested in Saudi Arabia is on Team Reactionary. Ones doing arresting are the modernizers. Suggestive.

Apparently the big Wahhabist funders are the ones being taken down. Again…hmm. ???

But New Republic Senior Editor Jeet Heer seems to know who is behind it all:

Jared Kushner visited Saudi Arabia last weekend and quite possibly green-lit this. https://t.co/xwS4nGr8fS

And Sen. Chris Murphy thinks Kushner is involved as well:

Lots of dots to connect in Saudi Arabia. MBS power play, quiet Kushner trip, Russia arms deal just the latest. Pay attention. This matters.

Blame the Jew?

There's nothing that happens in the Arab world that someone can't blame on a Jew. https://t.co/qqwXA45s2x

Anyway, expect to hear more about the Kushner–Kingdom connection, thanks to this report from David Ignatius in the Washington Post:

It’s more than a little unsettling that @IgnatiusPost described Jared Kushner as a prince in this paragraph. https://t.co/xIQ6gN4RhT pic.twitter.com/XrHszOnHCV
