Assuming push came to shove.......which is very unlikely......and Saddam attacked the Saudis, you think the other Muslims would let Saddam take over Mecca. If you do, then you know nada about the Islam culture. The Saudi royal family took Mecca and Medina by force from the Hashemites who presumably took it by force from someone else. The only time the Saudis might be at a deep disadvantage would be if the world were in a depression; otherwise, they hold the cards. If they try not to sell oil for awhile they go bankrupt. And we definitely are needy when it comes to oil. They need oil money more then we need the oil. Tim
