Can't speak for all terrorist groups, but I'd be hard-pressed to call the Saudis a modernizing force in the Middle East. And I'm afraid that both the US support for their government, as well as the US military bases in the country was the main reason for why there were attacks on those bases in the 90s - as well as 9/11. Something about Infidel Armies in the Holy Land.
