First. The U.N. is a joke. Without U.S. support the U.N. never has had any teeth and Russia and China have always kept the U.S. in check. (with bambino in office, nearly checkmate.)
I think Saudi is more making a political statement to show it's displeasure of American foreign policy in the Middle East. They are making noise. And why not. No matter the domestic issues in Egypt, Mubarak was an ally to both us and a barrier between Israel and the other muslim countries. Ghadaffi had been more or less neutalized. There would have never been a Benghazi. Now bambino sticks his wet nose into Syria and threatens them. The threats turn out to be empty. Whether I believe that we should have bombed Assad or not isn't the issue. That issue is Ball-less Barak made the line in the stand that he continued to back away from.
Now instead of his promises to "make friends" with the Arab world, he has alienated us from the couple allies we have. This guy has got to be the most worthless POTUS the United States has had since Carter.
