Well, that's one of the ways we get official new from inside the White House.Only Russian media can be trusted.
Word salad with Russian dressingWell, that's one of the ways we get official new from inside the White House.
Qatar and Iran have weird "official" news publications in regards to the "new coup." Even Pakistan jumped on as if the coup while it didn't happen on the date, that it will eventually happen.
So, the story isn't over yet, till the drone pilot is caught and confirmed to be a nothingburger. Recordings of the drone footage haven't been released, nor will they be released I bet.

The king's own air service denies a coup attempt and nothing abnormal is occurring in the region so the OP bought into a false narrative.

I'm waiting for FIVR to confide in P&N that he's receiving secret messages from his super friends undershorts.It isn't just the OP check out nostaseronx buying into it. Even if it was wrong it might be right eventually. Lordy.
Own up to the fact you were wrong.

Sure, deal. Do you want to start your seven days now?
Yes, we should all use RT like FIVR does as his native news source.
Here's an easy quest for you if you'd like to prove me wrong - Find a picture or meeting where MBS has appeared since the alleged coup.
Should be pretty easy. He (at least used to) appear in the media all the time, unless something happened to him....
You are the one on the hook for evidence here.
I just provided you with an article citing multiple sources (including a french newspaper) which states that MBS is missing and has not been seen since before the alleged coup. That is evidence.
Where is the evidence for your phantom drone attack? Where is the evidence that MBS is fine and there was no coup? As I stated before, it should be quite easy to provide proof that a coup did not happen since that would be a normal continuation of the current government. Funny how these requests for evidence only go one way, almost as if you think your position is valid regardless of what evidence is provided.

Hmmmmm..... where is MBS? He hasn't been seen since gunshots broke out all around his palace. Speculation ensues..... could he be dead? Is he severely injured?
So far it's looking like that "civilian drone" story was total BS. More crow to eat for the derp state believers here at ATPN. When will they learn that US media is propaganda?

You haven't provided evidence, you've provided an article that piggy backs on a couple of other articles that are highly speculative in nature. BTW your linked article is from a Pro-Hamas media outlet. You know Hamas which is aligned with Iran? You know Iran which is opposed to Saudi Arabia?
Again, your sources are highly suspect.
Hamas's budget, calculated to be roughly US$70 million (2011), is derived in large part (85%)[110] from foreign, rather than internal Palestinian, sources. Only two Israeli-Palestinian sources figure in a list seized in 2004, while the other contributors were donor bodies located in Jordan, Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Britain, Germany, the United States, United Arab Emirates, Italy and France. Much of the money raised comes from sources that direct their assistance to what Hamas describes as its charitable work for Palestinians, but investments in support of its ideological position are also relevant, with Persian Gulf States and Saudi Arabia prominent in the latter. Matthew Levitt states that Hamas also taps money from corporations, criminal organizations and financial networks that support terror,[111]and is believed to engage in cigarette and drug smuggling, multimedia copyright infringement and credit card fraud.[110] Vittori states that, more than other similar organizations, it is particularly careful about keeping resources for its militant, political and public works activities separate.[110] The United States, Israel and the EU have shut down many charities and organs that channel money to Hamas, such as the Holy Land Foundation for Relief.[112] Between 1992 and 2001 this group is said to have provided $6.8 million to Palestinian charities of the $57 million collected. By 2001 it was alleged to have given Hamas $13 million, and was shut down shortly afterwards.[113]
Gawd. Had there been a failed coup loyalist forces would literally be taking heads with gleeful abandon. Had there been a successful coup then that side would be doing it.
It's not like nobody would notice any of that.
Muhammad bin Nayef has escaped four assassination attempts. He was injured in the third attempt, and unhurt in the others.[62]
The third attempt was on 27 August 2009.[62] Muhammad bin Nayef was injured by Abdullah al-Asiri, a suicide bomber linked to Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula. Al-Asiri spoke to Muhammad bin Nayef a few days prior to the bombing, and expressed a desire to surrender himself to the authorities as part of the country's terrorist rehabilitation program. This was apparently a plot to get admitted to the Prince's palace.[63] Al-Asiri is believed to have traveled to Jeddah from the Yemeni province of Marib. During Ramadan, al-Asiri waited in line at the Prince's palace as a "well-wisher". He exploded a suicide bomb, killing himself, but apparently only slightly injuring Muhammad bin Nayef, who was protected from the full force of the blast by al-Asiri's body.[64][65] The explosive device was hidden inside al-Asiri's rectum[66] and anal canal, which security experts described as a novel technique.[67][68] Such a device has since come to be known as a surgically implanted improvised explosive device (SIIED), or body cavity bomb (BCB).[69] Muhammad bin Nayef appeared on state television with a bandage around two of his fingers on his left hand. He stated, "I did not want him to be searched, but he surprised me by blowing himself up."[70]
According to Bruce Riedel, a former US Central Intelligence Agency officer and director of the Intelligence Project at the Brookings Institution, “the weight of the evidence I have seen is that [bin Nayef] was more injured in the assassination attempt than was admitted." To treat his injuries the prince "got onto a pain killer routine that was very addictive. I think that problem got progressively worse.”[46] According to The New York Times, citing "an associate of the royal family", the prince's alleged addiction was cited to "strengthen support for the sudden change in the line of succession" that removed bin Nayef from office.[46]
This was the first assassination attempt against a royal family member since 2003, when Saudi Arabia faced a sharp uptick in Al Qaeda-linked attacks.[71][72] The last assassination attempt against Prince Muhammad was in August 2010.[62]
Nobody in the entire US or Saudi media seems to have noticed that MBS is gone, so I'm not so sure about your assertions. Saudi is a totalitarian state the likes of which is not even comparable to Syria or Iran. The princes control literally everything in the country and can manipulate the media at will.
Nobody knows what happened but it is looking more and more likely that MBS was at least injured in the attempt and may very well be dead. This is not even the first time an assassination attempt has occurred on a Saudi leader and the Saudi government kept it secret. Your disbelief seems to be based on some weird notion that we should know what is going on inside Saudi based on the actions of the media and other leaders... but historically that has never been the case.
