Iranian state TV is broadcasting a propaganda video in which Iran threatens to launch a barrage of missiles at Saudi Arabia with the slogan “Nothing will be left of the House of Saud”. Which is…interesting.
House of Saud... isn't that a pancake chain?
What I find interesting is that "everyone" - certainly the entire media - sees Iran as the villain, while Saudi is *exactly* as bad, and, historically, probably worse. They aren't even any good at sportswashing, despite the billions that they spend on it. They do buy Western weapons, so that's nice.
The Saudis would wipe the floor with them wouldn't they?
Iran threatening me with a good time.
