With Iran on the way to getting nukes and ISIS gaining ground in the region the rich Saudi’s are in danger of having their peachy status quo shaken up. Its not Israel who threatens them one iota. If anything it may be Israel saves their fat butts when push comes to shove against their common enemies.
Excellent comment. Worth repeating. This summarizes exactly the motive behind the Saudi move:

Absolutely correct. The Saud’s love to encourage others to get their hands dirty. The Saud’s have no support from the US since zero took the helm (which ironically I am happy about given the number of saudi’s that were highjackers on 9/11). I would love to see SA go under.
