Al Jazeera: Saudi prince: War with Iran not going to happen
Deputy crown prince tells British magazine an Iran-Saudi war would mean catastrophe for the conflict-wracked region.
Saudi Arabia does not foresee war with its arch foe Iran despite heightened tensions between the regional heavyweights, its deputy crown prince was quoted as saying.
Saudi Arabia severed relations with Iran after an attack on its embassy in Tehran on Sunday following the kingdom's execution of Shia religious leader Nimr al-Nimr, who was put to death along with 46 mostly Sunni Muslims convicted on terrorism charges.
Asked about the possibility of war, Prince Mohammed bin Salman told the Economist magazine: "It is something that we do not foresee at all, and whoever is pushing towards that is somebody who is not in their right mind.

Meaning Saudi Arabia cannot win currently or the victory would be Pyrrhic.

Not rocket science; just my 2 cents.
