Crude and vulgar sectarianism in Ash-Sharq Al-Awsat

Look at the headline and this article by Tariq Al-Humayyid (a long-time propagandist for the sons of Prince Salman and the editor of his mouthpiece, Ash-Sharq Al-Awsat).  They don't even try to disguise their sectarian hatred while pretending (in English) that they are "liberals".  Liberals in the House of Saud camp?  This Humayyid once described liberal reformers in Saudi Arabia as "an Iranian lobby inside Saudi Arabia".
