#1 Many Saudis still approve of Islamic radicals killing "infidels" (non-Moslems), and don't care if al Qaeda is doing it. What remains unpopular is Islamic radicals attacking fellow Moslems

Can we look at why this is acceptable in 2013!

#2 The Saudi counter-terror effort has also benefitted from the thousands of young Saudis who went off to Iraq to join the fight, and get killed, or come back disillusioned. Very few came back as "hardened terrorists."

My impression, and this could be sheer ignorance, is that jihadis either quit in disappointment or go on to the next fashionable battlefield, rather than going to fight at home.
