Saudi Contrition?

Saudi Arabia’s foreign minister, Adel al-Jubeir,  has described the kingdom as a “vision of light” in the region.

“We are now dealing with two visions in the Middle East,” Jubeir told a security summit in Bahrain on Saturday. “One is a [Saudi] vision of light … One is [an Iranian] vision of darkness which seeks to spread sectarianism throughout the region. History tells us that light always wins out against the dark.”

 He condemned the media coverage of Khashoggi’s killing as “hysterical”.
