In the short term yes. But Saudi Arabia is perhaps the single biggest reason the ME cannot stabilize over the long term. The export of Wahhabism and funds for fundamentalists that come from the house of saud will be there after al Qaeda and Isis and anyone else.

If ISIS comes from the vacuum of Sadam and the Baathist, I hesitant to think of the evil that would come after a destabilized Saudi Arabia.

Essentially the only reason shyt isn't already WW3 status is because everyone respects the Saudi money. What's going to happen once it becomes a free for all?

These are valid points but again we face an unstable, increasingly radicalized ME the longer the saud regime gets to export and fund radical groups. And the oil money is drying up without any action anyway
