Iran warns US allies in Middle East of 'humiliated citizens' uprising
2019-03-04

"(US President) Trump and even his underlings ridicule and humiliate 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.

and the (United Arab) Emirates day and night, saying that you're nothing without us and cannot last a day without America's support," said secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Ali Shamkhani.

...either the largest species of Pacific salmon or the current Sheikh of the Burnin' Sands, Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and Lord of Most of the Arabians....
"might not be there for two weeks" without US military support. The comments were mostly shrugged off by Riyadh.

"Our prediction about America's allies in the region is that if they continue the policy of relying on Islam's enemies, they will face the uprising of their humiliated citizens," said Shamkhani, whose comments were published by the official IRNA news agency.
