This is the second time you asked the same question. The motivation of the fighters is irrelevant, so long as they can provide security to the beleaguered folks without committing atrocities of their own. Thus far, Assad has the upper hand on the latter front, on a scale not seen in the region for a while.

Let’s ask this question when the rebels start indiscriminate slaughter of civilians on the scale of entire towns.

As for Assad’s sect, had he been as close to Iran as he is now, regardless, the Saudi response would have been the same. The Saudis also supported the Egyptian military against the Muslim brotherhood, due to the latter’s reach-out to Iran.

It is interesting that you refuse to answer the question picoico.if we can understand their motive then that can give an indication of what is to come.
However the last part of your post does answer it really. The Saudis are against Assad because he is close to Iran not because they care about the people of Syria.
