you have to wonder how easy it will be for the Saudis to implement and sustain their much ballyhooed 25% increase in production over the next two months while al Qaeda mounts continuing guerilla attacks on their infrastructure. i don't know how important the foreign personnel are, but i imagine they must be pretty important and insanely highly paid in order to stay there. and i imagine the Westerners who haven't already been killed or taken hostage will want to leave as soon as possible, regardless of the paycheck.

i just wish i had an idea of how near or far they are from a tipping point where al Qaeda can take down or seriously weaken the regime. it seems rather significant that these attacks are coming in a cluster with an open declaration of revolt--and the timing could not be worse with Iraq in the toilet and oil so close to the highs. not enough imams being paid off anymore?
