It will be very interesting if they can get this level of cooperation, but I doubt they will.

I think certain European countries, while publicly expressing sympathy with our situation, privately think it serves us right for the way we have treated other countries over the past century or so. I expect a lot of foot dragging from these countries -- they will say they support the war on terror, but they will express doubts about whether our evidence is sufficient to act on. Plus, they make a lot of money from these Saudi interests, plus they don't want to raise their heads above the water for fear they will become Al Qaeda targets.

So my prediction is that we get lots of words, but little if any action.
