arab spring iin saudi, page-2

Maybe....but I doubt it'll happen anytime soon. The website is Iranian....and the Saudis and Iranians have hated each other for roughly.....1300 years...Those uprisings in KSA are Shias in the Eastern province protesting (egged on by the Iranians) against the Sunni majority rule and those protests are almost an annual event. I'm no fan of the royal family but their security apparatus and the tribal loyalties which bind the internal security and military leaders to the royal family....would ensure it would be an extremely bloody transition. And given the economic importance....intervention by the West would likely be quick and massive.
