#1 Whatever he done to them? Ah, forgot. Hashemis are pretenders to the Saudi throne.

#2 The Hashemis used to rule Mecca, taking their cut from the lucrative haj traffic. The British removed them in favour of their pet desert Arab, Saud, and gave them Jordan (and I think Iraq) as compensation.

#4 Having Al-Qaida kill King Abdullah may be exactly what the US needs to knock some heads in that part of the world. I would recommend nukes and 500 miles on every large city (over 5000 population), and a few extra for any gathering crowds. I'm sure the entire world will be more peaceful after Riyadh, Mecca, Medina, Jedda, Aden, Bandar Abbas, Busahir, Qom, Tehran, Khartoum, Cairo, Alexandria, Damascus, Homs(Hims), Latakia, Beirut, and a dozen or so other sources of trouble are eliminated. Maybe even toss a few at Qetta, Karachi, Peshawar, Islamabad, Miranshah, et. al., for good measure.

#5 OP - I'll admit that is a pretty complete plan and I like it but, you left out one small item.

Collect all the friendlies before your strikes commence, board them onto a ship, have it proceed 10 miles into the Med off of Alexandria,

and sink it.
