KSA represents some of the worst of the region, the main strand of Islam is a concern, indeed the Koran has been reprinted in the hundreds of millions with it seems a subtle but definite set of changes to the original to support some of those views and distributed world wide, the manner in which they treat workers from areas such as The Philippines is horrendous. I wonder if echos of the Shah of Iran are in the offing for USA in say the next 5 years
As to the football , not even remotely surprised. Try going to certain areas of London in summer and see what is happening with rich extremely arrogant KSA types although the country is not alone in this stuff, but money talks. But KSA is now the beacon of hope it seems in the orange tinted world of yer man.
