Billionaire Saudi prince fires celebrity TV preacher for Muslim Brotherhood links

“Saudi billionaire Prince Alwaleed bin Talal has fired a renowned Kuwaiti preacher and motivational speaker from the top job at the religious television channel he owns for what he described as ‘extremist inclinations’ and links to the Muslim Brotherhood. Saudi Arabia has come out strongly in support of an army crackdown on the Brotherhood in Egypt following the military overthrow of Islamist President Mohamed Mursi last month. The Brotherhood’s rise had unsettled Gulf Arab states which feared it would embolden Islamists at home. ‘There is no place for those who carry any deviant thoughts at Al Resalah Channel,’ Alwaleed wrote in a letter to Suwaidan.”
