Hurrah for the BBC

In the BBC obit for Fahd, they included this tidbit.

See two posts ago for context.

Fahd was said never to have forgiven Faisal for this humiliation.

There were rumours at the time - which still circulate in Arabic language chat rooms - that Fahd had something to do with Faisal's assassination by a disturbed young man in 1975.

Like most court gossip, that remains an un-proven allegation and it was certainly not acted upon by the royal family's inner circle.
