If the Saudi's are so concerned about Iraqi Sunnis if the US pulls out of Iraq, why don't they do something to help bring about peace?
"Until now Saudi officials have promised their counterparts in the United States that they would refrain from aiding Iraq's Sunni insurgency. But that pledge holds only as long as the United States remains in Iraq. The Saudis have been wary of supporting Sunnis in Iraq because their insurgency there has been led by extremists of Al Qaeda, who are opposed to the kingdom's monarchy. But if Iraq's sectarian war worsened, the Saudis would line up with Sunni tribal leaders."
Maybe the Saudi's should send troops into Iraq to help keep the peace? That makes about as much sense as us trying to do it.
