not all that much. my favorite Saudi expert is Greg Gause of the University of Vermont. He did a chapter on the Saudi angle of things in the "How Did This Happen?" book, and an updated version of it appears in the Spring O2 issue of the World Policy Journal. You might want to check it out:

There's been alotta Saudi princes keeling over lately. Any connection I wonder? I find it very hard to believe a Saudi prince was caught in the desert and died of thirst.

Saudi Prince Fahd bin Turki bin Saud al-Kabir was found dead in the Rub al-Khali desert on July 30, Agence France-Presse reported. According to the SPA news agency, the prince and two other men were found near their car and had died of thirst. Fahd, 25, was the third Saudi prince to die in the past week. Prince Ahmed bin Salman bin Abdul Aziz died July 22 of a heart attack at the age of 43. The next day, Prince Sultan bin Faisal bin Turki al-Saud, a cousin of Ahmed and one year younger, died behind the wheel as he was driving to the funeral. 1735 GMT
