Key Stories
- A unique, never-before-told story about the insider's insider, an Arab able to keep a foot in the East and West in a way no one has before in U.S. history--at least at this high a level. It is amazing that some of the inner working and thinking from the normally secretive Saudi kingdom is being revealed openly and sourced to one of its top princes.
- A revealing report of Bandar’s meeting with President Gorbachev - on behalf of the U.S. and Saudi Arabia - during which he secured Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan.
- A stunning account of Bandar’s key role in a CIA/Saudi/Papal plan - personally endorsed by Pope Paul II - to prevent the Communists gaining power in Italy, thereby subverting Italian democracy.
- The astonishing story of how Bandar duped Secretary of State George Shultz when he purchased nuclear-capable Chinese missiles for Saudi Arabia, hoodwinking the National Security Agency into revealing U.S. satellite overflight times, hence allowing the Saudis to conceal their missiles for over two years.
- The truth behind the Khobar bombing and the Clinton administration’s failure to bring the killers to justice and to indict Iran, with personal accounts from the major players - Bandar, Freeh and Clinton.
- How President Clinton, Secretary Albright and Dennis Ross committed to a conspiracy of silence over the ill-fated Summit between Clinton and President Assad of Syria in early 2000, effectively erasing from history Bandar’s mission to Damascus - also hidden from Albright and the State Department at the time - in which Bandar relayed to Assad Clinton’s rash promise that Israel would withdraw to the pre-1967 borders. Clinton failed to deliver.
- A first hand account of how Nelson Mandela and Bandar secured agreement with Qaddafi to hand over the Lockerbie bombing suspects for trial in the Netherlands despite opposition from the UK and the U.S.
- During the Yom Kippur War, Henry Kissinger was unaware that his ceasefire had prevented Saudi Arabia entering the air war: at that moment, Bandar was on the brink of leading a flight of Saudi aircraft on a suicidal air strike against a major Israeli oil installation at Elat.
- Considered by many to be a ‘de facto’ member of President Bush’s cabinet during the Gulf War, but duped by Saddam Hussein over his plans to invade Kuwait, Bandar, in a move designed to anger Saddam, remove any face-saving option for the Iraqi dictator and guarantee that the Coalition offensive would proceed, covertly leaked President Bush’s threatening letter to Saddam via London’s Sunday Times - at a stroke, leading America into war.
- Bandar’s central role in the Iran-Contra scandal and his personal observations on the Independent Counsel investigation.
- An amazing account of how Bandar’s intimate friendship with First Lady, Nancy Reagan, allowed him to influence the hiring and firing of key members of the Reagan Administration.
- The story of how Bandar obtained the vital vote needed for President Jimmy Carter to secure passage of a bill through Capitol Hill which ceded U.S. control of the Panama Canal.
- A detailed account of how Bandar helped President Reagan win a Senate vote that not only secured the sale of AWACS aircraft for Saudi Arabia, but concealed from Capitol Hill the true scope of a massive defense contract with the Kingdom--a covert $50 billion plan to build U.S. proxy military bases in Saudi Arabia.
- A revealing tale of how Bandar--in a confrontation with Secretary of State Haig--negotiated the PLO withdrawal from Beirut following the Israeli invasion of Lebanon.
- The intriguing story of how Bandar, helped by Rafik Hariri, negotiated a ceasefire during the Lebanese Civil War, with a detailed report of how Bandar outwitted President Assad to complete his mission.
- Bandar’s explicit denial for the first time of any participation in the assassination attempt on Sheik Fadlallah, the spiritual leader of Hezbollah, in 1985.
- The story of Bandar’s ongoing efforts to secure peace in the Middle East, including his major role at the Madrid Peace Conference in 1991 and his attempts to persuade Yasser Arafat to accept the Clinton/Barak peace proposals in 2000.
- A compelling account of how Bandar devised a unique financial structure - an oil barter arrangement - that underpinned the massive Al Yamamah defence contract with the UK, a ploy that enabled Saudi Arabia to sidestep OPEC oil quotas and purchase weapons systems - not only British and French, but also American - thus bypassing scrutiny from Capitol Hill.
- The previously unreported story of how Bandar - at the personal request of Saddam Hussein - negotiated an end to the devastating Iran-Iraq War that had raged for eight bloody years, claiming the lives of over one million people.
- A revealing account of how Bandar responded to charges of Saudi participation in 9/11 and support for al-Qaeda, and examines measures taken within the Kingdom to control charitable donations, religious hatred emanating from Madrassas, and to support the global war on terrorism.
- An explosive account of in the run-up to the 2004 Presidential election, Bandar leaked to CBS News, via a London-based Arab newspaper, details of the FBI Franklin investigation. This leak, now the subject of a judicial inquiry, met Bandar’s ideal agenda as it has been damaging to Israel, AIPAC and Bush administration neocons.
- An astonishing account of how, during the Libyan invasion of Chad in 1987, Bandar conspired with the CIA to fund mercenaries to bolster Chadian armed forces that were supported by a devastating attack on Libyan forces; this hitherto unreported air strike was executed by 6th Fleet carrier-based U.S. Navy aircraft equipped with Russian bombs.
