There are new powers in the region, like Iran and Turkey, the U.S and the West had begun to incline more & more towards Turkey & Iran: Saudi Arabia is just slowing everybody down, and causing infinite embarrassments to the U.S and the west.

You are aware that Saudi Arabia and Iran butt heads. Not least of all because both try to be leading powers of Shiites and Sunnis. And it's not as if the relation between Shia and Sunni would be free of friction.

As for the West turning away from the Sauds. Takes a lot of imagination to see that. Not as long as they sit on the largest oil deposits in the world. The right in the USA will never accept Iran as a partner. Not as long as the current regime is in power, however moderate it may present itself. If they come to power, especially, if some religious nutter like Cruz became president, all bets are off. He's an evangelical, and everyone presenting the least threat to Israel is his sworn enemy. Not because he loves jews that much, but because they have that weird end times porn of Israel being the final battleground for Armageddon. To come true, the jews must hold all of the biblical holy land, in order for the jews, not converting to Jesus, to die in a mass slaughter.

Turkey. Well, it quickly turns into a dictatorship. And it quickly loses it's traditional secular nature in the wake of Erdogan getting more and more powerfull.
