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

Although, again, no one says where.

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

Everyone says he went to Lewis and Clark at PSU and he got a degree, but nobody says where the degree is from.

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

And we've confirmed it wasn't either of those colleges.

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

I don't know.

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

Yeah, Lewis and Clark College, a guy that Mohammed bin Salman sparred with came here.

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

Yeah.

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

Yeah.

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

I don't know.

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

Maybe not the best ad.

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

Yeah.

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

So, yeah, I don't know that he actually did graduate.

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

Stig writes that he took, quote, courses on security issues with the FBI from 1985 to 1988 and trained with Scotland Yard's anti-terrorist units in London from 1992 to 1994.

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

In 1994, he began working regularly with his father, Interior Minister Nayef in Riyadh.

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

And I think this is a situation where he's probably not that great a student.

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

I don't think he would have qualified to have special training with the FBI in Scotland Yard based on his own merits.

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

But because he's a prince and he's someone who is going to be a big part of the Saudi state, when he expresses, I'm interested in anti-terrorism work, right?

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

I'm interested in training with Western law enforcement organizations and counterterrorism.

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

They're all like, well, this is our chance to have a man on the inside.

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

This is our chance to have a guy in Saudi Arabia, not like a spy, but a guy who we know is like a friend to us, who we feel like we can trust, as opposed to this regime's kind of a black box to us otherwise, right?

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

And he didn't, you know, that episode wasn't the best.
