Can you topple one brother and his nephew without toppling the innocent grandson and his mother? Can we stop the flow of terrorist money without accidentally handing the whole country over to the nuts who sponsor all the world's terrorism? Ideas?
That's what Al Qaida and their sponsors in the House of Saud are hoping.

Mass assassinations are about all I can offer.
The late Ed Teller had some pretty good ideas that might help you.
The Saud's are a large royal family. Each man has four wives, the son's have four wives, and they all have children... ...Can we stop the flow of terrorist money without accidentally handing the whole country over to the nuts who sponsor all the world's terrorism? Ideas?
It's your basic communist state that's going broke from having too little to share with too many. The Saudis not only have to buy off the imported labor and the jihadists, they don't have the dough to spread the extended family over Monaco baccarat tables and Vegas strippers. (A certain Jagger/Richards line comes to mind from "Some Girls.")
Worse, the biggest accounts are tied up in U.S. securites and treasury notes. They yank the chain that feeds 'em, the whole house of cards falls like, uh, two very tall buildings that collapsed and over which they'd rather not carry any blame.
No, these m-f's are more screwed than drywall. And so are the fools that try to take 'em over. The sad fact is that for the Islamicists to get what they want, they have to die first. Veiled Iran exists because the Saudis cover their backside. If the House of Saud goes, either Iran flips, or Iraq becomes the 51st state.
Try and think from the Arab point of view. No way out.
