    Notice how Aljabri's face changes when asked how he acquired his wealth. You don't go from being in law enforcement to that level w/o being compromised and corrupt in your own right.

    The Rich on this planet treat each other horribly... they treat the rest of us even worse.
  • This happens in every country, the only difference how sophicatedly it is executed.
  • Why I don’t trust this man? Specially when he ran when he saw his friends being arrested for corruption!
  • There is a saying that says "if they do it with you, they will do it to you"
  • The same way Politicians over here become millionaires with salaries that are no where near that.
  • @res4426
    if he has helped Americans with intelligence which has saved them "many many" times then the country should be obliged to not only save him but also to rescue his whole family from the clutches of people who are trying to harm him. This also shows that America acting like a "savior" to the world is just "acting"..
  • @sdiiiRR
    The nerve of this man amazes me. showing your face after you stole millions then ran away and expect people to believe you? Thats my idea of pure comedy
  • Asking a Saudi topmost official as to how he became rich is an understatement of the decade.
  • @House.H
    Pay attention that when Aljabri was working as head of intelligence in saudi back then, the terrorist attacks never ceased. Meanwhile after he is gone no single terrorist attack inside saudi🙃

    That whole interview and he still never said why this man is such a threat to us smh. All I heard was I need the American people to help me get my kids out of jail because I gave the USA information in the past.
  • I read this interview of a female activist where she fled to save her life and her children's . But unfortunately her other friends who were activists got arrested . They campaigned for a long time for female equality especially the driving of vehicles. Now MBS has announced the same , but after announcing that was when these officials got these women arrested . She told that was highly because these men didn't want to credit the females for protest or development . Their goal was the government and MBS is changing and becoming modern . So yeah these women are still in jail . Mind you that saudi jail are notorious for women ! There's no such thing as a sentence ,it all depends on the male guardian when they want to take these female out . Well and if the government arrested you , best of luck! A horrible country in just like North Korea but mostly for the females.
  • "They take care of people around them" sounds like Martin Scorsese film character
  • It’s extremely disturbing that human beings are able to act like this towards each other. And it all stems from power and money, which then equals even more power.
  • He is brave to do this interview knowing how dangerous MBS is. Maybe if MBS was a decent person, he won't have to silence people for exposing truths.
  • I’ve lived and worked in the KSA ( King Faisal Hospital, Riyadh ) and I can say that money in Saudi Arabia drops like a rain from the sky , they have no Auditing this and that ( at least in the 1980’s ) , so if you are serving a top Royal family ,the possibility of getting rich isn’t impossible.
  • With his connections, and knowing the regime he lived under, he should have made sure his kids and rest of family flee the county to safety, before he did
  • He's basically saying that he had earned that 500 million so he stole it and ran away .. really funny story. And the royal family giving 500 millions only to one guy ? yeah they're very generous but that seems a bit too much for what you have done buddy. Dosen't get any clearer than that lmao
  • @dwa3467
    He shouldn’t say anything until he gets his family out safely that’s the best thing to do I would be so scared to say anything against somebody so powerful unless I was assured that my family was safe but then again I’m not in his position so I don’t know how desperate he is to help
