The other weapon in the Saudi's arsenal is they hold a lot of US treasury bonds, so could potentially cause a financial ruckus with them.
isn't the worst thing they could do is sell them all, right?  To lower the value of them....but that would hurt them way more than it hurts us, or am I misunderstanding something?  This is supposedly the leverage teh PRC has over us too, and I'm just not seeing it how it would work out very well for either.
