I found some good news from Wikipedia:

Nimr al-Nimr

Al-Nimr stated that the United States (US) “wants to humiliate the world.” In August 2008, he said that he sees US citizens as a natural ally of Shia as the thinking of both US citizens and Shia is “based on justice and liberty”

He believes that the Saudi government is “particularly reactionary” and that “agitation” is needed to influence governments in general and the Saudi government in particular. Al-Nimr has made statements “perceived as supporting Iran”. In August 2008, he stated that he believes that Iran and other states outside of Saudi Arabia act mainly out of self-interest, not out of religious solidarity.

I see an opportunity to weaken Saudi Arabia! Support the “Saudi” Shia, getting them onto our side. Most of the Saudi Oil comes from areas where the Shia are the majority. So, the Saudis lose most of their wealth, massively weakening them. At that point, the mainline Sunni states in the North could be prodded into attacking the remainder, and get rid of the Saudi Government, and smash the Salafi Spider.
