Looks like the Iranians torched the Saudi embassy in Tehran.
It's a start.
And a pox on both their houses.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Saudi Arabia, Sudan and the UAE have cut off diplomatic ties with Iran while Russia has offered to act as an "intermediary" between the countries. Looks like shit is really hitting the fan in the Middle East.

ABC GMA just noted the executed Shia cleric called for the overthrow of the Saudi royal family.
What, pray tell, did he think would happen after that ??

The Iranians noted the clerics only offense was calling for the the overthrow of the royal family and presumably replacing it with Shiites.
Dafuq ?
Not sure statements like that would have helped the situation.
Additionally, is it odd the Saudis didn't 'sugar coat' the clerics execution by just asserting he was a Zionist sympathizer ??

I suppose cooler heads will prevail and they will resume being shitheads to the rest of the world soon enough.
