"Seeing the Saudis as a potential liability in Arabia, NATO and allies arranged for Hussein III to have a nastily little accident."
A story from a propaganda-based novel sold in the Kingdom of Arabia regarding the death of Hussein III, the crown prince of the Saudi dynasty, as part of a novel saying the Hashemite lineage was an American puppet. The novel was sold under a subsidary of Koch Publishing
After World War I, the breakdown of treaty negotiations led to the Americans being the ones to manage the remains of the Ottoman Empire. They granted much of the land to the Hashemites to create the Kingdom of Arabia along with a Jewish homeland, a Kurdish state and an Assyrian state. The Jewish homeland was neutral while Kurdistan and Assyria were republics that became prominently influenced by the Americans.
Arabia meanwhile became a goldmine of investment when the petrol was discovered though sold primarily to Europe (as they could more honestly price-gauge them and the Americans didn't have much need for their oil). Eventually, the wealth was invested and after World War II, the Kingdom of Arabia began rising a prominent regional power, influenced to under a large secularization and liberalization campaign.
However, the Saudi dynasty, retaining a prominent influence in the Nejd area and rising by stoking religious reactionary sentiment within the rural area, began causing trouble that concerned NATO, mainly though anti-Western rhetoric and inflammatory uprisings that could invite back the socialists. However, it all came to a head when Hussein III died suddenly in a car accident This spurred the supportes into rioting and accused NATO of murdering him, which they flat-out denied. In fact, controversy stirred up over mocking the religious reactionary radicals for claiming a vast conspiracy rthe than accept the Saudi prince was actually a reckless driver and hot-headed, a comment supported by some family members.
The comment led to an acceleration in seculaization though butterfly effect meant that it would cost Ronald Reagan the reelection in 1984, losing against Democrat George McGovern (who won the primary when the frontrunner in Mondale fell ill and left him standing) as Reagan's religious rhetoric and support would be viewed in the similar matter as those of the Sauds and compounded with the economic problems and tax cuts, it cost him. President McGovern would lead the nation to economic recovery, electroal reform and the expansion of the public benefits, such as universal single payer healthcare and so on in 1985-1993, continued by his running mate and successor in the presidency, Jesse Jackson in 1993-2001.
"The Germans' victory in exposing the Nazi sympathies of the British monarchy was short-lived as it just meant the people embraced socialism across the continent in the long run. The Day of Evil Exposure's is still celeberated by the Third International (not to be confused with the USSR's attempt at an International)"
