Quote:Prince Turki al-Faisal, a former Saudi intelligence chief and ambassador to Washington, warned senior Nato military officials that the existence of such a device "would compel Saudi Arabia … to pursue policies which could lead to untold and possibly dramatic consequences".
Quote:Diplomatic cables obtained by WikiLeaks and published by the Guardian last year revealed that King Abdullah, who has ruled Saudi Arabia since 2005, had privately warned Washington in 2008 that if Iran developed nuclear weapons "everyone in the region would do the same, including Saudi Arabia
In other words, SA wants everyone else to incur the costs and backlash of dealing with Iran all while they keep their hands clean.

SA better wake up to the fact that a nuclear Iran might also have territorial ambitions. They are well schooled in insurgency designed to stir up the population. The Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, al-Quedia. The Arabian Peninsula would be Iran's oyster.
