As far as asking what the Saudis think, I really don't give a shit what they think. When a government can arrest and kill a woman because you saw her ankle, I don't really care if that government feels "safe" or not. Do you really think that this will change? The laws of the country are still made by a religious base, and according to their beliefs seeing a woman's ankle is causation for death.
I don't see that taking out a militant leader is going to change the fundamental laws of the country when those laws are based on an unwavering religious doctrine.
