The Sunday Times of London last week reported that Israel and Saudi Arabia were working hand-in-hand on “contingency plans for a possible attack on Iran if its nuclear program is not significantly curbed.” The Times added, “As part of the growing cooperation, Riyadh is understood already to have given the go-ahead for Israeli planes to use its airspace in the event of an attack on Iran.” Israel laughed at the report. Saudi Arabia denied having any contacts with Isarel on any level. The story got a cool reception worldwide with no sign of anyone seriously believing it. This is the norm for most stories about Iran in The Times, which is owned by Rupert Murdoch.
