They sponsor a radical fundamentalist interpretation of Islam in order to maintain power but don't themselves adhere to that doctrine. If they cut off funding? That's a mighty big if. I wouldn't bet on it. They already have their emissaries spread throughout the Sunni Muslim world. As far as I know they're still holding public executions for religious crimes (popular entertainment after Friday prayer). I'm not sure what good a "signal to the terrorists" is going to do. I would expect that just to confirm the terrorists' belief that the Saudis are puppets of the infidels.
