Persian-American Gulf: a Royal Mouthpiece, a Passion for Soccer, a Passion for Polygamist Kleptocrats……

Alarabiya TV is a royal Saudi mouthpiece, a sister medium to the Saudi daily Asharq Alawsat. It is reportedly operated by a relative of the royal family, and has often been keen on fanning the fires of sectarianism and divisions in the Arab world, especially in the Persian-American Gulf region. In this posting, repeated for the past few days, it utilizes a soccer game in Iran to further inflame sectarian, nationalist, and royal tribal polygamist passions in the Persian-American Gulf region.
The Saudi team lost the soccer game, but the media mouthpiece tries here to convert people’s passion for soccer into a passion for tribal polygamist kleptocratic royalty, using crude propaganda tactics.
Cheers
