The problem with non-Arabs like you, who don't speak Arabic (despite Arabic being in the top 5 of most spoken languages and one of the most influential languages in history, one of the 5 official UN languages and the foreign language that has influenced modern-day Turkish the most to this date, not even going to talk about Ottoman Turkish which was almost an Arabic dialect), who have never encountered a single Arab in your life (most likely the case in Macedonia), let alone a Qatari, Saudi Arabian or Emirati, is that your worldview and knowledge about Arabs and the Arab world is either taken from Wikipedia (which is free for anyone to edit and create an agenda about - I have personally experienced this first hand albeit eventually historically facts and scholarly worked triumphed over an biased moderator) or some useless Twitter accounts.
Nobody hates anyone in the Arab world. This is reserved for the tiny amount of extremists (0,0001% of the total population) who are willing to kill based on sect and worldview. Rest is lighthearted rivalry and "which **** is bigger than yours" type of banter that is commonplace in every single country and among every ethnic group. Qataris cannot hate Saudi Arabians or Emiratis as we are largely one people.
Even one those useless Twitter "wars", the criticism is always aimed at regimes in power which have nothing to do with the actions of ordinary people. Meaning the other 99.99999% of the people.
No, they don't at all. Arabs did not "suffer" as the Sultans in Istanbul could not afford to/were very afraid of pissing Arabs off as that would pick the Ottoman entity apart very quickly. Arabs were greatly respected in the Ottoman elite/royal court the problem however was that the Ottoman bureaucracy was dominated by non-Turkish converts, mostly from the Balkans, hence the obsession/priority of the Balkans, while large sways of the Arab world (despite being the Islamic heartland and far more important than tiny Balkans) were severely neglected. Even that, the 1/3 of the Arab world that was a part of the Ottomans, often had autonomy and some rulers (local) were great but overall it was 350 years with stagnation and explorations especially in Sham/Levant. So while it might have been your most glorious period (citizens of Anatolia), it was overall a dark period in the history of the Arab world compared to past periods.
Uthman presence in Arabia was limited to Hijaz mostly and parts of Yemen (although Uthman presence eventually almost always lost in Yemen whenever a conflict occurred - hence the famous Turkish songs about soldiers in Yemen). So basically less than 15-20% of Arabia. At that time there were several powerful Arabian entities that ruled from Aden in the South to Mosul in the North and the Omani empire ruled from Southern Iran/parts of Southern Pakistan all the way to Tanzania.
The importance of oil is decreasing each day/month/year in KSA greatly.
This is an annual export graph from 2015 (214 billion USD worth of exports).
Exports from 2015. The situation has only changed even more in 2020. And there is enormous potential for KSA in alternative energy. We will become an alternative energy giant in the future and given the rise of technology we will turn into an agricultural powerhouse as well in the future. Tourism is booming as well and Makkah and Madinah alone could (in the future) attract 50 million pilgrims each year if facilities increase. Tons of land with coastal access. Educated population with the highest expenses on education in the developing world as per capita (recent budget education/science formed almost 8% of the total expenses).
Yes, but it is not KSA's problem that we have been blessed with so many resources. Those are our resources. They did not jump down from the sky. It is due to Arabia being a very fertile region not longer than 5000 years ago and much of KSA being home to tons of giant lakes, rivers (hence why we have 1000's of wadis - non permanent rivers to this day) that created a huge amount of tiny plants and animals such as algae and zooplankton. Later creating oil and natural gas.
BTW, Arabia/Arab world was one of the wealthiest areas of the world for millennia long before anyone had discovered oil or natural gas.
In fact the oldest and largest gold mine in the Middle East is located in KSA (Hijaz to be more precise) and it has been working almost continuously for 5000 years and has been described in the Quran, Bible and Torah and many ancient fables.

Every country has its strengths and weaknesses, every educated person also knows that the native population of Turkey is 2.5 times larger (larger population = automatically a bigger economic output usually - no coincidence that China, USA and India are poised to become/are already the 3 largest economies in the world - not a coincidence as they have the largest populations), zero taxation in KSA (one of the main income sources of every economy out there expect in the GCC), geographic location close to Europe (largest economy in the world alongside the US) and 100 years of close integration to said economy/region. It is like comparing apples and pears.
You can imagine yourself what 100 years of direct and heavy Western influence could have done for KSA economically. Just need to look at the past 5 years (only 5 years!) of reforms from MBS and how much that has changed KSA.
What is the Arabian cause? I don't know of such a policy. There are 20 + Arab countries and 20 + Arab regimes. Currently there is no cohesive and joint policy. 3 Arab countries are at civil war (Yemen, Syria and Libya) moreover. As for the Arab people, that is another thing altogether.
Houthis control less than 10% of Yemen and have lost 80% of the territory that they controlled in Yemen prior to the Arab intervention.
Northern Yemenis are our brethren and not our enemies. If we wanted we could have carpet bombed all of beautiful Northern Yemen and turned it into ash. Literally. Yet that would be a huge own goal and counterproductive as the people are not our enemies and never will be.
Regimes in power are not important on a long-term basis, as they all come and go, hence why there having been 1000's of native dynasties in the Arab world.
Definitely the security of the nation is a red line but since only small mountain villages next to the Yemeni border have had direct dealings with this conflict (that too limited), it has not reached such a point.
In any case, I expect a ceasefire eventually, as KSA has no interest to occupy North Yemen (it is a very beautiful mountainous region of Yemen but it has little of no strategic value) and North Yemenis will continue to be dependent on KSA economically, in terms of work etc.
This is an internal conflict (civil war) and there are no saints.
