| [Iran Press TV] Following Saudi deputy crown prince's comments about moving the battle to Iran, Defense Minister Brigadier General Hossein Dehqan says if the Saudis do anything stupid, all of the kingdom -- apart from Mecca and Medina -- will be destroyed. Dehqan gave the warning in an interview broadcast on Arabic-language al-Manar TV on Sunday in response to remarks made by Saudi deputy crown prince Mohammed bin Salman, who said any battle between Riyadh and Tehran would take place on Iranian soil. "We will work to have the battle in Iran rather than in Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... ," prince Mohammed had said. "We warn them against doing anything ignorant, but if they do something ignorant, we will leave nowhere untouched apart from Mecca and Medina," said Dehqan. He referred to the Saudi bombing campaign on Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic... -- in which over 12,000 people have died -- and said the Saudis think they can do anything because they have an air force. |
