"Wonders how the strategic situation would look if Saudia Arabia goes
pearshaped?"

I have also been pondering that. The thought I have increasingly begun to entertain is that the US is working on the assumption that the demise of the House of Saud is now inevitable. Of course, said demise has been expected for decades, but the obvious concern for the US would be that oil supplies would be cut off in that event. In which case, the obvious response would be to seek to secure oil supplies elsewhere. Improved relations with Russia being one possibility, and a new regime to replace that of Saddam Hussein being the other.
