The 1969 Saudi Arabian coup d'état plot was a failed coup d'etat planned by numerous high ranking members of the Royal Saudi Air Force that resulted in King Faisal ordered the arrest of hundreds of military officers, including some generals. The arrests were possibly based on a tip from American intelligence, but it is unclear how serious the threat actually was.

Background
The 1950s and 1960s saw numerous coups d'état in the region. Muammar al-Gaddafi's coup that overthrew the monarchy in oil-rich Libya in 1969 was especially ominous for Saudi Arabia due to the similarity between the two sparsely-populated desert countries. As a result, King Faisal undertook to build a sophisticated security apparatus and cracked down firmly on dissent. As in all affairs, King Faisal justified these policies in Islamic terms. Early in his reign, when faced by demands for a written constitution for the country, King Faisal responded that "our constitution is the Quran."

Many of the conspirators were of Hijazi origin, and Yusuf Tawwil, a Hidjazi merchant, acquaintance of Prince Fahd, and one of the key conspirators, was believed to hold Hijazi separatist beliefs. Others involved in the plot were Najdis or Sunni's from Eastern Province.

The Plot
Utilizing the air force planes at their disposal, the plan was bomb the Royal Palace in Riyadh from the air, and hopefully in the process kill the King as well as other high ranking Princes who could possibly try and replace him. Following the Kings death the plotters planned to announce the formation of the Republic of the Arabian Peninsula.

Legal status
The record of the party constitution was filed April 19 in 2004 but did not receive formal authorization for the lawful exercise of its activity. Meanwhile, another political party also claiming ecology, Green Party for Progress (PVP), receives permission. Amid controversy led by party allegiance "competitor", that is to say, the PVP, the Democratic Constitutional Rally (the ruling party at that time), the Ministry of Interior claims he n ' has not received all the documents of the party constitution, remarks that the leaders of this party are unable to refute in the absence of legal deposit receipt justifying their case.

Green Tunisia was finally legalized on 17 January 2011, following the Tunisian revolution and the overthrow of President Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali. 1

Political positions
Green Tunisia has denounced the deterioration of the environment in several key sites throughout Tunisia, such as the drying out of southern oases and the pollution of the coast of Sfax, Gabes, and Bizerte, caused by the "overuse" of resources and the unbridled expansion of some areas industrial pollution.

Despite its non legalization by the authorities as a first step, the leaders of Green Tunisia ensured two have so far supported by many environmental groups and environmentalists European political parties two (including the European Green Party 4 ) and participated in several symposia and congresses International 3.
