    The faiths are a little different, but Wahhabism isn’t far removed from Sunni Islam. In any case, since 7 October the Saudis have been talking with Iran about working with them, instead of Israel.

      Iran is Shia. They have a very violent history of conflict across the Middle East. Most recently across Iraq but Sunni vs Shia has been a common conflict duo since Islam split.

        Fair play, my mistake. Saudi Arabia is still starting to cosy up to Iran now, though.
