Outlook of Saudi Arabia's aggressive policy in the region

Outlook of Saudi Arabia's aggressive policy in the region

Alwaght-The Saudi Arabia regime has managed to maintain its stability during the seventy past years in a turbulent environment which was filled with wars and various coups. This regime has conducted many proxy wars in the region during this period. But for the first time the Saudi army acted directly in Saada war between Yemeni ex-ruler Ali Abdullah Saleh and Houthis. In this war Saudi army was backed by Moroccan and Jordanian commandos and also USA and UAE Air Force. Indeed this war was a turning point in Saudi's history and the beginning of the collapse of regime's fake holiness. As the result of this fundamental evolution the Saudi regime took openly aggressive policy in the region. Military occupation of Bahrain and direct intervention in Syria are samples of this aggressive policy.

The Saudi Arabia is trapped in a paradoxical situation and is suffering from domestic crisis and chaos in royal family. Instability and imbalance in Saudi society is moving country toward disintegration and decomposition. Saudi Arabia is an aggressor country which intervene in other countries domestic affairs and is after intensifying sectarianism in the region.

Saudi's unprecedented intervention in Syria and occupation of Bahrain doesn’t fit its chaotic domestic situation. Saudi Arabia is suffering from corruption within royal family and its people are deprived of minimum freedom.   

Saudi's intervention, unlike other countries, was formed spontaneously which is indicative of a highly sensitive situation in the country. The crashing wave of Islamic awakening and radical changes in the region has duplicated the sensitivity in Saudi Arabia society. Today, this structure is very fragile and the ultimate goal of current crises in the Arab world; a structure which protecting it, was the basis of Kissinger's doctrine during the cold war.

Disintegration of Saudi Arabia can shake the foundation of this structure. Signs of these changes became evident during the past 18 months which made AL Saud worried about their domestic situation. These evolutions made Saudi Arabia to change its conservative policy and take a more aggressive policy instead.

Saudi Arabia gradually became aware of the danger threatening its dynasty. The failure of Saudi plan for Yemen, losing the control of Yemen, beginning of popular movements in Qatif and more importantly the continuance of popular uprising in Yemen despite the military occupation by Saudis are signs of this great danger.

Involvement of Saudi Arabia in devastating Islamic awakening was a strategic mistake which will make them to face the consequences of their interventionist policies and make them the last loser in the regional developments.
