Saudia is transforming into another shit, total totalitarism way far from pre 2015, and that is a bumb ticking. That 30 year old king is reckless, idiot and easily useable.
Political Islamism has failed because most of the world powers are against it and see it as a threat. Non-Western systems will always be dismissed as backwards.
Well, oil won't last forever and they have to Address the core issues that's holding them back. You can't have society run by cleric's and expect them to develop a knowledge based economy. Like do you think men who think like osama bin laden would make you compete with the likes of isreal.
