the eruption is to be found in
the recent escalation of activi-
ty in the Gulf by the United
States, the "Great Satan," in
the Iranian lexicon.
Iran's loathing for the House
of Saud was immeasurably
heightened by the reflagging of
Kuwaiti oil tankers and the ap-
pearance in the Gulf of United
States warship escorts, which
are perceived as a direct
challenge to Iran.
The Saudi leaders, sensitive
to Iran's intense displeasure
over their close ties with
Washington, attempted to ap-
pease their neighbours.
True, the Saudis have
deployed their sophisticated
AWACS surveillance planes
(operated by joint Saudi/U.S.
crews) at the southern end of
the Gulf to assist the United
States mission; true, too, they
have offered medical facilities
to United States servicemen
who might be injured.
But they have also attemp-
ted to keep their distance by de-
nying Washington's requests
for facilities to service and
refuel United States warplanes
and warships.
Such gestures, however, were
apparently not enough for
Teheran, and the unequivocal
message to emerge from the
riots in Mecca is that Saudi
Arabia must disengage from
the United States — or take the
consequences.
Significantly, Iranian leaders
have consistently linked the
United States with the Saudi
regime in assigning blame for
the Mecca massacre.
Observers note that the
"human bomb" which the Iran-
ians exploded was in character
with previous expressions of
Iranian displeasure.
In October 1983, the pro-
Iranian Islamic Jihad move-
ment sent its suicide car
bombers to destroy the head-
quarters of United States and
French peace-keeping forces in
Beirut, an operation that
claimed 296 lives and
precipitated the withdrawal of
Western forces from Lebanon.
Similar tactics, used against
Israeli forces, also prompted
Jerusalem to hasten the with-
drawal of its troops from
Leb anon.
Since then, Iranian-inspired
groups have perpetrated a
series of atrocities in Europe
(particularly in France) and in
those Gulf states which have
conspicuously sided with Iraq.
Two months after the Beirut
suicide bombings, an Iranian-
backed organization planted 11
car bombs in Kuwait on a
single day; two years later, in
May 1985, a pro-Iranian suicide
car-bomber attempted to assas-
sinate the ruler of Kuwait,
Sheik Jabir al-Ahmad al-Saba,
when he rammed into his
motorcade. In the same month,
a series of bombs exploded on
the streets of Saudi cities.
The single long-term goal of
Iranian-sponsored terrorism
