#2 A contingent of Egyptian troops is already deployed on Saudi Arabia's border with Iraq

Didn't know that. SA has always been very wary of Egypt's military, just a short boat ride from Jeddah and the populous west coast.

My read on this is SA would be more than happy for Egypt's military to be fully occupied in Libya for a few years.
