On 4 August, shortly after 21:20, Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official owned media) broadcast Muhammad al-Yasiri, head of the Bina Centre for Studies, on its programme #Before_Tomorrow. He said Saudi Arabia "did not bomb Iraq without cause despite the factions' innocence," that a US-Israeli alliance led by the Gulf states had been formed, that Iran had lodged a protest over "Saudi aggression" while Iraq's foreign ministry took no step, and that martyrs' blood "cannot be compensated except by the head of Ibn Salman and all of Saudi Arabia." The rung is held down to preponderance because this is one guest on one channel, with no armed-faction statement and no outside coverage of the underlying strikes in the supplied material.

“Saudi Arabia did not bomb Iraq without cause, despite the factions' innocence... the blood of the martyrs is not compensated and is settled by the head of Ibn Salman and all of Saudi Arabia... a US-Israeli alliance led by the Gulf states has been formed... Iran lodged a protest over the Saudi aggression while the foreign ministry took no step.”
السعودية لم تقصف العراق من فراغ رغم براءة الفصائل ... دم الشهداء لا يعوض ويسوى رأس ابن سلمان والسعودية كلها ... تم تشكيل تحالف اميركي اسرائيلي تقوده دول الخليج ... ايران قدمت احتجاجا على عدوان السعودية والخارجية لم تقدم على اي خطوة
AAH's own broadcast platform carried a named individual naming the Saudi crown prince as the price of Iraqi blood while simultaneously carrying a guest who ruled out confrontation with the state, so the channel is holding both positions in public at once.
