Re: Saudis to back Sunni Insurgents if USA pulls out of Iraq
The thing that most people here do not understand is that as bad as Iraq is, it can get worse. Thus far, there have been no massive fixed piece confrontations, ie, one militia facing off for extended periods against one another. A slaughter of thousands could become a slaughter of millions. The Sunnis would be massively outgunned and outmanned by shia with revenge on their minds.
Saudi does not want to be involved, but they would step in to prevent an Iranian backed slaughter.
