Amira,
I am a little confused with the title of the post.
“Saudi Arabia: Apologise to Iran”
I, although a Saudi citizen, no way represent Saudi or the view in the streets of Saudi.
I feel the title of the post is very misleading.
thanks
Dear Yazeez,
Point taken and the title has been amended! Sorry if this has caused you any inconvenience!
