It will be interesting to see if the Saudis attempt to fill in the gap to ensure the leadership there retains support from the west when it has to deal with the "Arab Spring" - can't see the the Bin Saud family the subject of a UN resolution somehow as long as the oil flows.

It will also be interesting to see if they can actually fill the gap, i.e. whether they actually have the ability and capacity to do so.
