About this listen

On August 27th, 20009, Prince Mohammed bin Nayef, an influential member of the Saudi Royal family, was greeting citizens at his palace. It was the holy month of Ramadan in the city of Jeddah and one of these citizens at his palace piqued the interest of the Prince more than others.

This citizen´s name was Abdullah Al Asiri and he had a gift for the Prince.

Namely, a PETN explosive device, hidden in his butt. In this episode, we discuss Abdullah, the organization he belonged to and what we as Americans understand about an enemy we declared war on over 2 decades ago.
