Mr. Kordestani, the chic Iranian-born American was picked for the position because Saudi Arabia and google share a core value: any information that is not ours should either become ours or become eternally destroyed.
As has always been google's tradition, Kordestani is expected to use a top to bottom approach in enhancing the Saudi media empire. He plans on starting with making an offer to al-Jazeera and make his way down to the smallest of TV stations and newspapers across the Arabic-speaking world.
Iran, the Saudis' arch rivals in the region have not commented on their native's willingness to work for the enemy, but absentia charges of treason are expected to be pressed by the Iranian government against Kordestani.
