The "Belly of the Beast" lies in Mecca and Medina.

Actually, it does not. The Saudis have criticized Hezbollah.

This conflict has made something clear - there are two types of nations in the Middle East - those who harbor and promote Islamist extremists, and those who are the targets of such. In the past, countries such as Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Egypt would have jumped on the anti-Israeli bandwagon. Now, they condemn Hezbollah. They have no desire for the extremists to have a victory, even if it is against Israel, because they know that would embolden the terrorists they are also fighting.
