New Saudi King’s big challenges: Yemen, Iran and ISIS …

Story highlights Yemen's pro-Saudi government has crumbled amid sectarian unrest Saudi Arabia also faces difficulties in its cold war with Iran and the fight against ISIS

To the south, Yemen is in chaos. To the north, the militant group ISIS is wreaking havoc in Iraq and Syria. More broadly, Saudi Arabia remains locked in a regional cold war with Iran.

Within the kingdom's borders, Salman has to decide how to pace sensitive reforms while keeping a lid on extremism.

The stakes are high in one of the leading regional powers in the Middle East and a key U.S. ally.

"Saudi Arabia has been critical to preserving some degree of regional stability in the face of a growing Iranian threat, during the rise of Islamic extremism that followed the U.S. invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, and during the new wave of upheavals that began in the spring of 2011," Anthony H. Cordesman, a Middle East expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, wrote in a commentary this month.

Here are some of the main challenges Salman now faces:

The new king has been plunged straight into the deep end with a fast-developing crisis on Saudi Arabia's southern border.

The pro-Saudi government in Yemen has crumbled amid sectarian unrest. The country's president and prime minister resigned Thursday night after a move by Shiite Houthi rebels to gain power in the capital in recent days.

Sunni majority Saudi Arabia, which provides energy and financial support to Yemen and shares a long border with it, is looking on with growing anxiety, fearful of the prospect of another Shiite-dominated state in the region.

"This will terrify the Saudis, just as the Shia uprising in Bahrain did," said CNN intelligence and security analyst Bob Baer.

Why the Iran sanctions fight is a big deal

It's a message world leaders and diplomats working with the U.S. to wrangle Iran into relinquishing its nuclear weapons program have echoed.

But none of that is stopping sanctions advocates in the Senate, who will mark up their latest piece of legislation in committee this week, bringing the bill one step closer to action on the Senate floor.

READ: What's happening in the Middle East and why it matters

And as negotiators rebooted talks with Iran in Geneva, Sen. Robert Menendez, the lead Democratic sponsor of the sanctions bill, accused the White House of peddling talking points "straight out of Tehran."

Throw Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's upcoming visit into the mix, a couple veto threats, and you've got a bona fide Washington showdown.

Why does this all sound so familiar?

Because it is. Congressional Republicans and a dozen Democrats, bolstered by the powerhouse pro-Israel lobby AIPAC, faced off against the White House and dozens of pro-peace groups last year when they tried passing the a sanctions bill.

The bill earned on-the-record support from 60 senators -- just enough to override a filibuster -- but the bill never got a vote after the White House issued a veto threat and went on a lobbying spree urging Democrats to oppose it.

What's different now?

The November midterm election changed the dynamics -- Republicans snagged the Senate majority and Iran sanctions were suddenly back on the table, handing advocates a pretty easy path to 60 votes and even a chance of reaching a veto-proof majority.
