Can you explain what you mean?
The Saudis made the move to "punish" some competitors. What is some of these people don't like to be pushed, or put into their place. Could cause some economic problems back home - some riots, etc. And for what - the Saudis?
The Saudis have a lot of money, but no military. No protection. Having money is great - as well as people are willing to be bought off. But what if money is not enough? How difficult would it be to start a coup in the House of Saud? Or to set off a "dirty bomb" somewhere that will disrupt the flow of oil - either out of Saudi Arabia, or through the Straits of Hormuz.
