The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia remained a critical country to Western security interests in the Persian Gulf. Washington, for one, has invested much in the Kingdom and, consequently, who governed there -- and how that person responded to domestic pressures -- was critical. This study assesses the coming leadership changes in the kingdom. It identifies individuals with greatest leadership potential; examines their political, social, and religious perceptions, including views of the U.S.; and evaluates the criteria for their survival as a ruling family. In other words, it clarifies for key leaders, what the "Will to Power" [the desire to rule irrespective of whether or not a state of legitimacy exists] is. In doing so, the study -- that is based on dozens of interviews -- posits how succession is likely to develop during the next few years, under the leadership of the Al Saud. |
