The Arab-Persian War
That's largely not being covered by the press.
The Saudis are even, secretly, cooperating with the Israelis. Iran has always been seen as a greater danger to Israel than the surrounding Sunni Arab nations. Hizbollah, which is a Lebanese Shia organization, made a name for itself during its disastrous attack on Israel last Summer. Although Hizbollah lost by every measure, they won in the arena of public opinion. Both the Israelis and Saudi Arabs (and Sunni Arabs in general) hated that.

it seems the sunni's have two good options.
1) Take on the shiite's/iranians'
2) Try and out-do the hezbollah guys.
It might be far easier for the al-qaeda or another
sunni front group to do some spectacular attack on
israel or the american's.
