To Saudi Arabia, Iran Is a Greater Threat than Israel
(Arab News-Saudi Arabia) Abdulateef Al-Mulhim - Who is the real enemy of Saudi Arabia? Following the Iranian revolution, Tehran shocked the world by adopting a hostile policy toward the Kingdom. In the mid-1980s during the Haj season, thousands of Iranians went on a rampage and rioted. Saudi security officials at King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah found tens of pounds of C4 explosive paste with some Iranians. During the past few years, Iran's intentions to control Yemen and threaten the security and stability of Saudi Arabia have been exposed. Now it has become clear that Iran was behind the Houthi takeover of Yemen. Iran is no doubt a threat to Saudi Arabia even greater than Israel.
