Mohammad bin Nayef is withdrawn from Saudi palace at the order of King Salman of Saudi Arabia substituted by the 31-year-old son of the king. Six points are noteworthy in this line since a more minute analysis can shed more light on the current and future situation of the country.
 

1. Disposing Crown prince Mohammad bin Nayef from interior ministry and deputy of the ministerial council reveals the fact that an undercover war of power between ministers of defense and interior affairs has ended in favor of the son of King Salman and the fate of Arab Kingdom is within the hands of a young man who grabbed the future of the country only with the support of the US.

 

1. Based on Al Arabiyah report in order to success his father, Mohammad bin Salman has achieved only 31 positive votes from the 34-member-royal council comprising Al Saud family. To receive this weak approval is an unprecedented event in the tribal kingdom of Al Saud.

 

1. The major challenge for the new heir seems to be over the Saudi royal law that one of the sons or their fitting sons of the founder king (Abdul Aziz bin Abdul Rahman al Faisal Al Saud) and then the new heir Mohammad bin Salman was born on 31 August 1985, turning 32 in a month. To reach power in such a young age, in the tribal political system of Saudi Arabia which runs based on senility, would challenge all previous political and tribal relations.

 

1. At the order of Saudi king, cousin of Mohammad bin Nayef, Prince Abdul Aziz bin Saud bin Nayef is appointed as the new Interior minister. This person, though from a rival family, is in good terms with the United States.

 

1. In fact the US the military wing in Pentagon has also supported stabilization of Mohammad bin Salman to guarantee warmongering future for the region. The security department in Washington, particularly CIA, has contributed special support for Mohammad bin Nayef. Disposed from the crown, he and his father have worked with the US security office for several years. Mohammad bin Nayef has received top intelligent award (George Tenet Award) from CIA head Mike Pompeo in 2017. It introduced the receiver as the model of counter-terrorism from US security organizations.

 

1. With the order Salman bin Abdul Aziz, Saudi king has appointed Prince Bandar bin Faisal bin Bandar bin Abdul Aziz has been appointed as the deputy of Al Mukhabarat Al A’amah (General Intelligence Directorate); therefore, the new heir Mohammad bin Salman is on the peak of the triangle with Abdul Aziz bin Saud, the new interior minister, on the one side and Bandar bin Faisal on the other. This triangle will be in charge of the future leadership of the tribal system in Saudi Arabia.
