So for a story involving Saudis, Turks, and presumably Italians, you put up a picture of Khosrow Vaziri, an Iranian? What was the thought process behind that?

I don’t know, pally. Smells like “put up a picture of a brown guy in a headdress” to me.

What would be a better illustration of a story about a fake Arab?

We mustn’t upset the Saudis or the Turks for some reason, and nobody wants to upset the Mafia. Whereas the Republicans are still trying to destablise the Iranian agreement. Where’s Ritter Johann von Oesterreich/Don Juan of Austria when he’s so obviously needed to deal with the real problem?
