The 71-year-old pope said the growth was detected at an early stage and is “well contained”. The Vatican has not said whether it is malignant, and expects his recovery from the surgery to take about a week.
Analyst Chris Martenson says billions spent on American hardware bought nothing, and the kingdom’s top-heavy structure means this could tip the whole regime.
“This could lead to the toppling of the kingdom if this carries on.”
When the missiles keep landing and the princes keep hiding, the appearance of power is all that’s left.

Mario Nawfal (@MarioNawfal)🇸🇦🇺🇸 The damage to Saudi Arabia’s oil infrastructure could be far worse than people realize.
I’ve been trying to understand just how much oil Saudi Arabia could be losing as its energy facilities come under attack.
Chris Martenson pointed me toward something that deserves far more attention than the fires themselves.
Using NASA satellite fire data, he identified an unusually intense blaze at the Khurais oil processing facility, with readings exceeding 550 megawatts of fire radiative power.
The concern isn’t simply that a facility is burning.
Khurais processes oil from a field producing roughly 1.8 million barrels a day. It also handles water injection needed to maintain pressure underground.
If those systems are seriously damaged, Saudi Arabia can’t necessarily redirect that production somewhere else.
And nobody yet knows how long repairs could take.
Martenson also raised another problem: the world isn’t just losing crude oil. It’s losing access to refined products like diesel and jet fuel, while damaged tankers and slower ship-to-ship transfers are making deliveries harder.
That’s why he’s so worried about another American escalation against Iran.
A prolonged shutdown of critical Gulf energy infrastructure could turn an already severe supply disruption into something much harder to reverse.
And right now, the extent of the damage remains unclear.

It has cracks and a huge sinkhole, so it’s now completely closed.
More than 14,000 people in nearby communities depend on it for farming, moving livestock, and getting to popular tourist beaches.
And now people in one coastal community are cut off, with no water, electricity, or phone signal.
Pretty rough for a bridge so many people depend on.
