Even the saudi ambassador to Iraq who does nothing but bark against the PMF has admitted in the reocrded phone call that the majority of the remaining Falujah civilians sympathize with terrorism. Of course he also attacked the PMF but I guess IS is currently a bigger threat.
May I ask why you are writing Arabic and Saudi (it's called Saudi Arabian) in small letters while the opposite is the case with everything else in your post, including IS itself? Strange behavior if deliberate.
The Saudi Arabian ambassador voiced his concern for the safety of civilians in the campaign against Fahesh all across Iraq and radical/sectarian elements within the PMF. You know those that are serving Iran's agenda and fueling the fire. That's all.
Ironically you forgot to mention that the same Saudi Arabian ambassador had a meeting with the MoD of Iraq (Khaled al-Obaidi) last week after an invitation where they talked about the recent developments.
Or him praising the people of Southern Iraq. Our brethren.
Moreover he is regularly in contact with numerous Iraqi Shia Arab clerics. 20% of KSA's population is Shia and they are especially close with their Iraqi brethren.
KSA-Iraq relations are not as bad as portrayed nowadays and I suspect that they will only increase and develop for the better in the future. KSA's only problem vis-á-vis Iraq is the growing ambitions of the Iranian Mullah's to control Iraq and from there other Arab countries and the Iranian proxies within the political system and PMF.
Also your "even the Saudi Arabian ambassador" rhetoric makes no sense at all as the ambassador has publicly called operations against Fahesh as liberations of Iraqi cities ages ago. Long before the recent advancements.
Also before you go all bonkers in your defense of Mullah's in Iran, Muqtada al-Sadr (arguably the most powerful Shia cleric in Iraq after the old and fragile Al-Sistani), is outright against the role of the Mullah's in Iraq and is likewise heavily critical of the Islamic Dawa Party that has dominated Iraqi politics since Al-Maliki took power. As we know not long ago al-Sadr's supporters stormed the Green Zone which was purely a manifestation of their political power and influence. If you take a look at social media only a small minority of Iraqi Shia Arabs are blindly following the Iranian Mullah's and their Wilayat al-Faqih system.
Lastly your username Alshawi appears to be your surname and for your information that Arab tribe (which originates in Arabia in particular modern-day KSA) is numerous in not only KSA and Iraq but is even found in Qatar and numerous other Arab countries. You probably have close or distant relatives scattered across the region like almost every Arab family.
You might disagree with Arab regimes of the region but it makes absolutely no sense to hate ones own brethren. The average person in the Arab world has little say in what their governments (read regimes) and the elite are doing and believe it or not but most wish nothing but all the best for Iraq and every other Arab country. Nobody is asking you to like sectarian people in Iraq among us or other Arabs but to generalize whole groups of people and countries due to a loud minority (which is hated by everyone but themselves) or unelected regimes, makes no sense at all I am afraid. All this is based on politics and nothing more. Just 40-50 years ago (when your father's generation was your age) there were no such hostilities at all and it was very common for people in Iraq, KSA, Kuwait, Syria, Jordan etc. to visit each others relatives or make visits. There were no problems whatsoever. I know several Iraqi Shia Arabs from Southern Iraq (Najaf, Karbala, Samawa, Basra, Zubayr), who I consider as close friends who told about their parents generation making frequent visits across the border and vice versa. Even to this day this occurs although a lot of ills have occurred in the past 40 years for lots of reasons. However I believe that people of the region should look toward a better future and try to find solutions to misunderstandings or disagreements in order to improve the region as everyone is connected.
