On the second question, I'm not convinced that the Prince who committed suicide wasn't really Prince Bandar bin Sultan Al Saud ("Bandar Bush"). Many media reports first identified Bandar Bush as the jumper but then the reporting changed to the other Bandar.
I followed the corruption purge in the KSA closely and the first reporting had Bandar Bush detained and then hospitalized after his "interrogation". Another report had him dying while hospitalized. It was widely reported that he took massive kickbacks on UK defense contracts and he apparently bought the Shire of Oxfordshire as his primary residence. Watching the video of the airport jumper shows an older Arab hoisting his considerable girth up and over the second floor barrier.
But Bandar Bush's biggest secret was his involvement with 9/11 as disclosed by the infamous "missing 28 Pages" of the 9/11 Commission's Final Report. I've watched closely for any and all news about Bandar Bush but he seems to have vanished. But he's had practice in vanishing after doing so for a couple of years after a previous assassination attempt of another Prince years back. Regardless, I'm sure that Bandar Bush gave up all his connections to 9/11 during his detention. This might be a reason for Q's jab at 41 "in his bunker" in Houston. Or the "jumper" could very well have been Bandar Bush knowing was he would face upon extradition back to the KSA.
