This is one place where the traditional US national security priority of stability actually seems to have held up. It held up just fine, Win, until the Saudi habit of buying off their enemies and telling them to go play somewhere else blew up in our faces, quite literally. Now many of these Saudi-bred chickens are coming home to roost. The more I read about what's going on in the kingdom (which economically and demographically is a tinderbox waiting to blow), the less I feel I know about it.
