I'll bet Saudi Arabia has a clandestine weapons program.
Wahabi want to destroy the filth of Shi'a. Shi'a want to destroy the filth of Sunni. Sunni want to destroy the filth of Wahabi. And every possible permutation of those three sects warring against the others.
Iran is spreading a tremendous amount of influence into Iraq's Shi'a. This will eventually backfire on them, since each imam is bucking for Ayatollah; you can always count on an imam's gang to vie for power against his rivals. Ambition will limit the scope of Iran's influence, solely due to geographical distances and poor transportation infrastructure.
So, Saudi Arabia is feeling the combined Iraq/Iran Shi'a pressure. It's funny, because they were sending all their civilian Jihadists to Syria, and then across the Iraq border to kill Shi'a. They've depopulated their own surplus of Jihad fighters (I don't know how many Saudi mujahideen we've killed, but I would not be surprised at 30,000), and Iran still has control of Iraq.
By Allah, Saudi Arabia is feeling the Shi'a pressure, and they they've been sweating Iran's arms program for years. It's only just come to a real "crisis" when it was obvious that Iran had won The War.
The War for control of Iraq.
