Saudi Arabia: Iran and Israel Don't Deserve to Exist

This coming from the recipient of Obama's deepest bow:

Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah probably refrained from expressing at least half this sentiment in

his meeting today with President Obama: On June 5, he reportedly told French Defense Minister Hervé Morin that "There are two countries in the world that do not deserve to exist: Iran and Israel."

The scoop comes from Georges Malbrunot, a French journalist with Le Figaro. Malbrunot, a respected Middle East correspondent who spent four months as a hostage of the Islamic Army in Iraq, goes on to report that two sources, from diplomatic and military circles, have confirmed the story. He suggests that the anger directed as Israel was the result of the IDF raid on the Gaza-bound flotilla, which occurred just days before this outburst.

This is an interesting statement given that as recently as June 13th there was a story that suggested that the Saudis would eagerly give Israel overflight rights to attack Iran. I guess once Iran is destroyed the Saudis would then hope the world would go after Israel.
