I wonder what if we transfer all what happened in otl Iran in 1979 to a new timeline to Saudi Arabia. Having the Islamic Revolution happen in Saudi Arabia insteed and SA becoming an enemy of the US?
Maybe having had Nixon during the Oil Crisis in early 1970s had the US take the Saudi oil by force?(As he planned in OTL). As the main catalyst.
Have would the Middle East and US Policy in the region change without a base and ally in Saudi Arabia?
