Saudi Arabia to follow women, using high technology.

Perhaps in another few hundred years it might occur to them that there might be a reason why their wives are choosing to leave the country, and that perhaps they might be better served by fixing those reasons instead of spending all this money on monitoring equipment and infrastructure.

"Nah, they'll never go for it."

I agree that 'they'll never go for it'; however, I think your timeline can be accelerated.

First, the oil won't last another two hundred years, so the power base disappears.

Second, if the Saudis think that Syria is as far east that the unrest spreads they are sadly mistaken.

no, they are right. Guess who wants and benefits from the unrest in Egypt and now Syria?

Oil won't last forever, but Saudis know so long as the west retains its morbid fear of Iran, saudiarabia can freely exploit the opportunity presented by the toppling of secular pan-arabist dictators like assad, mubarik, and be the power behind the scene subsiding Sunni Islamist players in these unreast, and move Sunni Arab world closer to defacto Saudi control.

When the middleeast unrest plays out, Saudi Arabia would have close relations with powerful and hitherto unfriendly egypt, and would have exorcised iranian inflence from syria. The biggest winner of the "arab spring " would be Saudi Arabia, and Iran and Israel its big losers.

The sooner we can get our energy needs from anything OTHER than Saudi oil the better.

They look like this: ...Then lemme tell you this, she comes up to me begging me for help, and her stupid-shit hubby comes around screaming at me to return her, most he's getting is a fucking .308 round in his testicles. He doesn't turn tail, I'm going to make him watch as his ex-wife bounces gleefully on my dong and if that isn't enough I'm putting the next round in his fucking head while she squeals about how much more amazing I am than he ever was.

Fuck Saudi Arabia. Their government and society are so fucking ass-backwards that if we, the US, ever invaded them under the sole goal of attuning their society to our own where women at least have the fucking right to vote, I would support every single last damned dollar of my taxes given over to.

It really is a case of men with very small dicks trying their best to be powerful and failing. The point being is the rest of the planet are laughing at them

Islam is for the infantile, xtianity for the puerile and judaism for the pre-teens.

Meh

Islam's only use of technology is to destroy Its people

and then uses the very same technology to attack west
