    The Suadi Royal Family is notorious for making outrageous demands and NOT paying Hotel Bills that average $40k to $100k. ITV in England did an entire show about the Saudi Royal Family walking out on Bills in 5 Star Hotels, in London and France, and Not paying. So these Hotels are used to them NOT paying. The reason why no one questions the Suadi Royal Family is that they have a collective net worth of $1.7 Trillion.

    Why not bring people who can actually pronounce Arabic names? Wtf is caleed
    “That’s what they’d think a Saudi prince would do” to throwing tantrums. Why the orientalist view?
    So apparently no Arab was consulted … b for effort I guess
