Well Hawk, you have me interested. I am familiar with the Muslim history, not the Islam religion history, but the history of the political infighting that goes on to succeed to the throne. History in that part of the world is replete with such stories. So I would tend to agree with you on this fully.

So maybe the US should fight the war against terrorism in the palaces of SA, siding with the anti terrorist royals. After all the British colonialized the world without sending in their military. And the US can do the same in the modern age

See liberals like me can see things which are reasonable and hold views which are realistic.

only one can be King of Saudi Arabia. And it wouldn't be the first time we saw internal intrigues amongst royal heirs to a throne

reminds me of an old arabic saying, in the context of "power struggle", which loosely translated goes like this :

"Me against my brother, me and my brother against my family, me and my family against our clan, me and our clan against all outsiders".
