: Piers Morgan will be doing a program on
: Libya
: live on CNN at 9:00 Eastern (US) Time. It
: will apparently air in Europe at 2100 CET.
: Among several guests scheduled to appear is
: Prince Sayyid al-Senoussi of the formerly
: reigning dynasty.
:
: Isn't that the name of all Libyan princes?
:
: I don't know. That's how he is listed on
: Royal Ark,
No, he is not. If it is Idris you were referring to, he is listed as Sayyid Idris bin Sayyid 'Abdu'llah al-Sanussi [H.R.H. Prince Idriss Abdallah Al-Senussi], cf. http://www.royalark.net/Libya/libya3.htm In other words, "Sayyid" is a title, not a name.
The true pretender is listed as H.R.H. Crown Prince Sayyid Muhammad al-Rida bin Sayyid Hasan al-Rida al-Mahdi al-Senoussi, cf. http://www.royalark.net/Libya/libya6.htm
: as well as on CNN's website,
: although during the interview the caption
: called him Prince Idris. Mr. Morgan,
: however, called him Prince Sayyid. In any
: case, the gentleman in question is
: apparently the head of the royal house.
Idris might be regarded as a member of the extended royal house, but Prince Muhammed is the true pretender. Just google Prince Idris' name and you will see how much trouble he could create for "the monarchist cause" (not that I believe in restoration of the monarchy).
