The second to the thrown wanted oil and he's an old school Arab.
There where 20+ assassin's ready to storm the princes floor once the prince got back to his hotel room. But we're found out and the prince never went back to his room. They needed a cover story so a few assassin's shoot up the concert across the street and the rest left before killing padlock and leaving. The fbi stormed the room and immediately leaked a photo to divert attention from the prince.
I forgot the specifics why the USA and Saudi didn't want the assassination attempt to go main stream. It has to do with stabilizing Saudi Arabia since the USA Russian china and a whole bunch of unfriendly counties have a hand it Saudi which could spark WW3.
Didn't the Las Vegas Metro SWAT team breach the building? Not the FBI
