link it to post #1961 above and the recent uprisings in ethnically Arab Khuzestan province in Southern Iran. Saudi oil fields are very vulnerable to Iranian rocket attacks so it’s all very dicey right now.
The other side of the coin is that Iranian oil facilities are also within reach of Saudi Arabia (specially via Bahrein) but were not targeted till now.
Thanks for the ping!

THX FOR THE PING.
Obama has issued a slew of waivers to get around trade embargoes with Iran but greed gets them caught anyway.

AND A COMMENT TO A POST ON ANTIMULLAH WORTH REPEATING
Here is what our President and Secretary of State are “supporting” in Libya. The so-called rebels or radical Islamists, are barbarians and the same as Al-Qaeda. Our tax dollars are supporting this through NATO and air strikes and the President is now re-thinking about placing “boots” on the ground in Libya.
Video - graphic and barbaric.

As a heads-up, I copy and post links to Alan to save work for me with information for all who care to read it.
Why reinvent the wheel to please purists, when the information can be so easily shared this way? Or those who have nowhere else to post and try to make it praiseworthy to save a click and then take up tons of FR bandwidth.
Alan’s non-commercial, NOT for profit AntiMullah site and its subsections is nowhere near a size of FR but with daily visitors from some 120 countries in over 30 languages he is not counting on visits from FR for anything at all.
Not even fame and definitely not fortune. On the contrary, with me, he contributes what little we can to FR financially.
He spends lots and lots of self-financed (unpaid) hours every day on AntiMullah to present patriotic viewpoints and show up our enemies for what they really are and the harm Obama, jihadi Islam and others are doing to our lives and also those all over the world.
Luckily he has accumulated or retained old contacts who pass information on to him, often before it gets into the MainStream Press or never reaches the LameStreamMedia. Or reaches him without attribution in hundreds of daily Emails from all over in several languages.
Sometimes it emerges from grey area sources and he cannot even share it on his blog either.
Enjoying or ignoring the links I post mostly on TERRORISM and COUNTERTERRORISM: News, INFORMATION & Analysis #2 is up to you and fully a matter of your choice.

Shia Iran retaliating with major oganized unrest against Sunni ruler of Bahrain that Sunni Saudi Arabia is protecting.
Irony is that the Bahrain monarch has his family roots in the Persian city of Isfahan and is ethnically a Persian!!!
Until early last century , Bahrain used to be a province of Iran so having a man of Persian origin turned Sunni ruler is not that strange. Iran gave up claims to the province to save about $6,000,000 in costs of governing it. A relatively huge sum in those days.
General comment - about 70% of Bahrainis are Shia so is about 30% of the Saudi population - mostly found in North East and Eastern areas of Saudi Arabia. It's the Saudi Achilles heel for which Iran is aiming its spear.
Shias refer to Sunnis as the Barbarian period of Islam and consider themselves as refined. True enough of the pre-Khomeini Persians, where during the Pahlavi monarchy Iran had a form of "Islam Light", referred to as the Shahanshahi Islam. None of the Jihadi violence was tolerated by the Shah, though he gave Moslems and any other religion including Jews, freedom of worship without persecution or hinderance.
Role reversal. The above will be posted on Antimullah (smile) after going up here.
Thank you for the ping.
Thanks for the ping!
Bump and thanks. . .
Clears up why Iran is so darn focused on Bahrain lately. Thanks.
Thanks. Did you check out MEMRI/YouTube channel re: Saudis warning to Iran (on the 18th)?
It’s only fair, the Ayatoilet wasn’t Iranian for all practical purposes.
Good point. Khomeini did not have a single drop of Iranian or Persian blood in his veins.

BTW, AntiMulllah has adopted your “ayatoilet” clerical title attached to self-elevated Iranian clerics and posted this in Farsi as the title of Khamenei in the dog story..

and in English on the same subject
