Comment from the contributor:
From <i> The New York Times </i> --Saudis are increasingly aware of the kingdom's role in international terrorism, leading to heightened security measures around the country. Not only an incubator of terrorism, Saudi Arabia is also a victim and target of Muslim extremists.
For all their success on the military front, Saudi officials seem cautious about declaring a victory against jihadists, especially when unexpected crises like the recent war between Israel and Hamas can create a sudden upwelling of popular anger that fuels extremist sentiment.
