I guess we are seeing an arms race brewing. On Syria’s side:Russia,China and Iran. On the other: Arab Nations. I am very curious on how the Saudis are planning to get the arms into Syria when the borders are virtually closed in Syria.

Referring to the bloodshed, the king ominously warned Medvedev that Saudi Arabia "will never abandon its religious and moral obligations towards what's happening."

IMHO The Saudis religious and moral obligations would be to get the Alawite Assad out of power in Syria and put the Sunnis in charge. Then the Alawites and Christians can be persecuted in Syria.
With Assad out, the Iranians (Shiites) will lose an ally in Syria. Next up for the Sunnis, trying to topple Lebanon for another Sunni victory.- tom
