Why was Saudi Intelligence Chief Prince Bandar sacked?

According to sources privy to the matter King Abdullah has grown wary and tired of Bandar’s inability to garner enough traction against Syrian President Bashar Al Assad to secure his ouster. 

Despite great many efforts over the past six months, Saudi Arabia has been unable to make significant advances in Syria. Saudi Arabia’s funding of Takfiri militias in Syria has cost the kingdom billions of dollars and led to the death of thousands of innocent civilians.

A man of the shadow and a puppet master of global terror, Prince Bandar could have met his match when he chose to directly target Russia.
