| Saudis give apparent warning to Iran: don't meddle in Iraq |
| 2014-06-18 |
| Saudi Arabia gave an apparent warning to arch enemy Iran on Wednesday by saying outside powers should not intervene in the conflict in neighboring Iraq. Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal also said Iraq was facing a full-scale civil war with grave consequences for the wider region. His remarks coincided with an Iranian warning that Tehran would not hesitate to defend Shi'ite Muslim holy sites in Iraq against "killers and terrorists", following advances by Sunni militants there. Speaking at a gathering of Arab and Muslim leaders in Jeddah, Prince Saud urged nations racked by violence to meet the "legitimate demands of the people and to achieve national reconciliation (without) foreign interference or outside agendas". "This grave situation that is storming Iraq carries with it the signs of civil war whose implications for the region we cannot fathom," he said. |

| #1 Predicted response? Iran to the Soddys: F.U. Our shrines are under threat by you sunni radicals. If the Saudis are backing the ISIS, then they really screwed his up. |
