THOSE in the western media too busy
to be bothered trying to understand the
complexities, intricacies and nuances of the
Middle East often resort to concluding
nearly all conflicts there are some kind of
‘proxy war’ between Saudi Arabia and Iran.
This is usually out of ignorance, reducing
disputes to the lowest common dominator of
Sunnis versus Shiites or to that between
their two most prominent patron states.
Often though there is deliberate
obfuscation; there must be justification for
a US ally to cause regional mayhem on the
pretext of containing an enemy. The easiest
and most convenient scapegoat has been Iran
and efforts to contain its alleged
expansionism by Saudi Arabia, the United
Arab Emirates and of course, Israel, go
unchecked.
