Iranian Daily: Saudi Arabia Using Phosphorus Bombs Against Shi'ites

The Iranian daily Jomhouri-e Eslami, which is close to the religious seminaries in Qom, stated that Saudi Arabia is bombing the Shi'ite population in northern Yemen with phosphorus bombs, and that the U.S., Saudi Arabia, and Yemen are massacring Shi'ites in the service of Israel – which seeks to transfer Yemen's Jews to its territory.

According to the newspaper, the war launched by Saudi Arabia under U.S. pressure will harm its struggle for hegemony over the Arab world, and will increase efforts by extremist Wahhabis in Saudi Arabia to depose Saudi King Abdallah.
