The Chinese edition of The New York Times wrote today (March 25): "Sources familiar with the matter said that in a recent call with Trump, the Saudi Crown Prince urged him to persist in military operations, considering sending troops into Iran to seize energy infrastructure and force the Iranian government to fall. This war would have significant impacts on Saudi Arabia's economy and national security."
[Clever] Commentary: It's not out of the question that this is part of an information warfare campaign by the U.S. and Israel, deliberately fueling greater divisions among Islamic nations. The claim that the Saudi Crown Prince urged Trump to launch military action against Iran is highly likely to be a fabricated story concocted by the U.S. and Israel. Saudi Arabia has previously clearly opposed using its territory to attack Iran, and certainly would not recklessly send troops, risking being drawn into direct conflict—such a move would only turn Saudi Arabia into a prime target for Iranian retaliation, jeopardizing its own security and economic foundation. Moreover, does The New York Times still remember Khashoggi? When will it finally seek justice for Khashoggi?
