Al-Otaibi is right on the money.
“Saudi Writer Abdullah Bin Bijad Al-Otaibi: Iran Has Friends From The Obama And Biden Administrations; Obama Aimed For Peace With Iran, Wanted The Muslim Brotherhood, Other Terrorist Groups To Control the Arab Countries,” MEMRI, August 19, 2022:
Saudi writer Abdullah Bin Bijad Al-Otaibi said in an August 19, 2022 show on MBC TV (Saudi Arabia) that Iran has “friends” in Washington that worked for the Obama administration and that currently work for the Biden administration.…
Interviewer: “Let’s talk about the Western reactions [to the attack on Salman Rushdie]. Why does the West continue to deal with the Iranian religious extremism with such clear double standards?”
Abdullah Bin Bijad Al-Otaibi: “Unfortunately, the [Iranians] have friends in Washington — specifically within the left-leaning Democrat administrations, beginning with the administration of former President Barack Obama, and the administration we have today. They have far left liberal political convictions. Obama’s vision has been made public.
“Most of the officials in the current administration worked for the [Obama] administration. Obama’s views, policies, and vision have been made public. He believes that he should make peace with the terrorist Iranian regime and to hand over authority in the Arab countries to Sunni terrorist groups like the Muslim Brotherhood and similar political Islam movements. He sees this as a magic solution for the Middle East.
“We saw how these policies killed the Arabs in Syria, Egypt, Libya, and Tunisia. Some Arab countries managed to get rid of the so-called “Arab Spring” — which was, in fact, a dark, blood soaked, murderous spring. The U.S. government planned to use this ‘Arab Spring’ to create regimes like the Iranian [regime] in the Arab countries.”

I consider Biden’s administration a more jihadist government than the one in Riyadh

Biden is pretty bac, but I’m not sure I’d go that far. We are not actually beheading victims in the streets here–not yet.
PMK says
Sunnis have their own terror organizations, which are funded by Saudis. Does he remember that al Qaeda was Sunni in origin and that Iran sheltered many al Qaeda operatives after 9/11? It’s kind of like the pot calling the kettle black. Sunnis don’t believe in human freedom any more than Shiites do. Let all Saudis pound sand or be willing to fight their own battles against Iran. The choice is theirs.

Yep. Saudi Arabia and Iran are both huge state sponsors of Jihad terror.
