OPEC is about to suffer a mammoth blow as the world shifts away from oil as its primary fuel source. That's coming in this century, perhaps within the next 20 years. The Saudis and other oil-rich nations are going to abruptly find themselves without a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of.
The USA and UK will be similarly impacted unless they take immediate steps to move away from an oil-based economy.
That's what I take from the prince's message. Nothing really cryptic about it. Besides, the prince could be off his rocker, barking mad, or just plain wrong.
Now, if he's talking about a religious apocalypse, then I think he's barking mad — no man shall know the hour, as the Bible says. It'll be upon us like a thief in the night, with no warnings, no time for preparation, no time to flee to Canada or Switzerland or wherever.

As The Daily Beast reported June 8, Manning, while posted in Iraq, apparently had special access to cables prepared by diplomats and State Department officials throughout the Middle East, regarding the workings of Arab governments and their leaders, according to an American diplomat.
As The Daily Beast reported June 8, Manning, while posted in Iraq, apparently had special access to cables prepared by diplomats and State Department officials throughout the Middle East, regarding the workings of Arab governments and their leaders, according to an American diplomat.
“Hillary Clinton and several thousand diplomats around the world are going to have a heart attack when they wake up one morning and find an entire repository of classified foreign policy is available,” Manning wrote of the diplomatic cables, according to Wired.
In an interview with Al Jazeerah TV, the popular Iraqi leader Fattah al-Sheikh, a member of the Iraqi National Assembly and deputy official in the Basra governorate, said that police had "caught two non-Iraqis, who seem to be Britons and were in a car of the Cressida type. It was a booby-trapped car laden with ammunition and was meant to explode in the centre of the city of Basra in the popular market." Contrary to British authorities' claims that the soldiers had been immediately handed to local militia, al-Sheikh confirmed that they were "at the Intelligence Department in Basra, and they were held by the National Guard force, but the British occupation forces are still surrounding this department in an attempt to absolve them of the crime."

The original story is from an Iranian web site. The Iranians hate the Saudi regime: it's Sunni, American-allied, as rich as Croesus and the only local power to challenge Iran's regional ascendancy, not to mention influence in the Muslim world.
The story is propaganda....

He is referring to common knowledge. The U.S, UK and Israel have long been on the same "team." He's referring to crooked foreign policy of course. My biggest question is in his regards to none of those places "surviving" whatever occurrence he is talking about. If the US, UK and Israel aren't going to make it, well then who is? I can't foresee anybody coming out "on top" in any type of catastrophe that is capable of completely wiping out the entire US, UK and Israel.
Cheers,
