Summary
Note: The list draws on press reports, jihadist literature, personal interviews and J. E. Peterson's Saudi Arabia: Internal Security Incidents Since 1979. Full bibliographic references are available in Hegghammer, ‘Violent Islamism in Saudi Arabia’. For the most eventful period between May 2003 and December 2006, space considerations forced me to exclude all but the most serious incidents.
