#1 In this case, I can see why some people might root for qaeda to succeed. Nothing would be better than to see these fucks murdered by their own monsters.

#2 I've just read a book by Laurent Murawiec, on the Saudi family; like others on the same subject, it's not great literature; unlike others, it is not a more or less objective analysis, but a violent charge against the royals (basically, the Pentagon report that got him fired from Rand corp., in another form), against its Washington lobby, and the corrupting influence it has on the arab world, the western economy, and islam. Truly frightening. The Saud have been tricking their "allies" since the beginnig, doing global scale razzias (1973 embargo), living in a tribal mindset straight out of the dark ages and spreading it,... and they have so well bought they way into western economical/military/political elites that they are basically untouchable.
Murawiec advocates pretty drastic measures ("de-saudize Saudi Arabia") that would please most people here, but I truly doubt there ever will be enough political will to implement even the slightest one of them.

#4 Perhaps we are seeing a shift to a more traditional 'revolutionary' strategy.

#5 This is just the fanatically-pro-al'Qaeda wing of the Saudi "royal" family planning to use its terrorist connections in its successional fight with the not-quite-as-pro-al'Qaeda wing of the Saudi "royal" family.
