The New York Times has decided that an Iraqi who works for a Saudi propaganda apparatus should speak for the Saudi public: "Mustafa Alani, an analyst with the Gulf Research Center who often works in Saudi Arabia, said that while the cases of the three dissidents had raised alarm in the West, few people in the conservative kingdom were bothered by them.
“These people have no support from the great majority of Saudi society,” Mr. Alani said. “They think that those people are weird, and influenced by the West, and trying to damage the interests of Saudi Arabia.”"
