Syria can only be considered as an “occupied land,” Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal said on Tuesday during a press meeting with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry.Don't you get the impression that Faisal is just looking for the biggest insult he can use against Iran, and (short of labeling them "Zionist") the phrase "occupied territory" fits the bill?
Al-Faisal described the intervention of Iran and Hezbollah in Syria as dangerous, saying the opposition forces must be offered military help to defend themselves.
Saudi Arabia "cannot be silent" about Iranian intervention, al-Faisal added and called for a resolution to ban arms flows to the Syrian government.
Keep in mind that many of Syria's rebels come from outside Syria as well, so we might see this argument being used by the Syrians soon!
