Abu Dhabi buys $1.35B stake in Carlyle Group

[Locutus]

Intriguing. Especially for those that follow the Carlyle/Unocal/Harken/Haliburton mystery.

The Saudis already have more than a trillion dollars in U.S. assets and stock market holdings. It's always a good time to review the factual back-up for Fahrenheit 9/11.

Names like Karzai, Cheney, Bush and Bandar.

Why are you confusing the Saudis with Abu Dhabi?

No confusion at all. The Mubadala now has a $1.35b stake in Carlyle, while at the same time, another entity, even larger, holds a huge stake in the U.S. market.

And that has what to do with an emirate with hundreds of billions of dollars to invest?
