Behind the Bastards
Part Three: Prince Mohammed Bin Salman: The Tyrant of Saudi Arabia

An accident, an accident.

Behind the Bastards
Part Three: Prince Mohammed Bin Salman: The Tyrant of Saudi Arabia

No, I think he blows into pieces because as a spoiler, the public note is that MBN was barely wounded.

Behind the Bastards
Part Three: Prince Mohammed Bin Salman: The Tyrant of Saudi Arabia

There's a lot of evidence that he's pretty badly hurt by this.

that maybe he's actually never the same afterwards.

Again, when a man explodes ass first, the shrapnel that's hitting you is pieces of a man's ass.

So among other things, you're going to get infected, right?

Part Three: Prince Mohammed Bin Salman: The Tyrant of Saudi Arabia

Like his guts and stuff are getting, are piercing your body.

Behind the Bastards
Part Three: Prince Mohammed Bin Salman: The Tyrant of Saudi Arabia

and within U.S.

intelligence agencies.

He continued to remain the top man in security throughout the Obama years, where he developed a close working relationship with CIA Director David Petraeus.

He also got on tight with John Finer, Chief of Staff for Secretary of State John Kerry.

He would later tell a reporter that MBN's people saved my butt more than once, which, given what had just happened to MBN, may have been literal.

Part Three: Prince Mohammed Bin Salman: The Tyrant of Saudi Arabia

John Kerry's worried someone's going to butt bomb him?

Behind the Bastards
Part Three: Prince Mohammed Bin Salman: The Tyrant of Saudi Arabia

No, no, he literally saved my ass.

Behind the Bastards
Part Three: Prince Mohammed Bin Salman: The Tyrant of Saudi Arabia

Yeah.

Behind the Bastards
