We have warned and continue to warn against calls for the division of Iraq, which come up now and then, calling for sectarian rights or minority freedoms.

Saudi Arabia has also changed. People today are connecting with each other all across the world through small gadgets and television. It's a different society.

We will not accept in our country even a single soldier who will attack Muslims or Arabs.

We are not against religions. This country is the cradle of prophecy and the true message and we will not contradict this.

Leaders of the various Iraqi elements will likely have their own militias, and there will be endless rounds of brinkmanship on the road to post-Islamic State boundaries, governing structures, and distribution of power and resources.
