After Mohammed AlJasem’s first article, he wrote a second article much more critical of Sabah AlAhmad’s role in the country and his growing power.

His third and latest article continues his trend of criticizing Sabah AlAhmad’s strength.

I recommend reading all three. But the point of my post is to know what direction is he going towards? and why?

His problems with Sabah AlAhmad have been publicly known since his days as editor in chief of AlWatan newspaper.

Does he want to be the hero? Nobody else has been as critical to the prime minister as he has, so swimming against the tide will definitely help make a name for himself politically as a ‘voice of the people’.

But for a man who was paid more than 10,000KD a month as a salary from someone as contrevertial as Ali AlKhalifa, the owner of AlWatan, a member of the royal family, and someone with a really nasty reputation full of corruption from his days as minister.

So, after getting the boot from AlWatan and being replaced by Ali AlKhalifa’s son, now all of a sudden he is the most critical person of the royal family.

Does he want to annoy Sabah AlAhmad and test his limits to become some sort of hero if they tried to quiet him? Is he testing Sabah AlAhmad and seeing what he might be offered to stop (such as a wazara)? Is he betting on someone other than Sabah AlAhmad and hopes to be on top if such a thing happens? Or he just trying to change the really bad reputation he got from his days at AlWatan for many years??

It really is confusing, and ironic, to see him write all that! And who exactly are the shabaaab he keeps talking about?! Could it be the same shabaab who ousted him from his position?

I’d love to know what you guys think about this recent revelation by Mr. AlJasem?!
