Saudi prince sends threat to the West after Biden warns of consequences for kingdom
The Saudi prince warned the kingdom is the 'project of jihad and martyrdom'
A Saudi prince related to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's seemingly took aim at President Biden and the U.S., warning leaders not to threaten Saudi Arabia.
"Anybody that challenges the existence of this country and this kingdom. All of us, we are products of jihad, and martyrdom," Saudi Prince Saud al-Shaalan, who is married to one of the grandaughter's of the late King Abdulaziz Al Saud, said in a video that was posted to Twitter Saturday. "That's my message to anybody that thinks that it can threaten us."
King Abdulaziz Al Saud founded Saudi Arabia.
The video comes amid a time of unprecedented tensions between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia, with the oil-rich kingdom leading an OPEC+ decision last week to cut oil production despite American requests to increase exports.

It makes great press does it not?
A threat from a cousin of the Crown Prince who from what I can tell is of little importance and far removed from the throne and influence on policy. Just another minor Bedouin princeling- a dime a dozen throughout Saudi Arabia.
Here’s some more press on the story although not quite as alarmist in tone:
