Actually I wonder if the current Saudi King might be near-death (he's seemed healthy but he is 81), and the Crown Prince wants to consolidate power first.
Because every King of Saudi Arabia has been a son of the first king (besides the first, obviously). Not descendent... son.
It just so happens than Father Time is basically done with the sons of the First Saudi King, and it's time for one of the grandsons to be the next King... and this Crown Prince, the 32-year-old, wants to make sure he isn't killed or otherwise deposed since there's even more grandsons than sons.
