Tend to agree here.

Much of what the Saudis are doing in regards of their PR-statements is based on consulting worth US$ million, and run by various US and British think-tanks.

In this case, somebody... apparently somebody from a certain island where everybody is driving on the wrong side of the road, consulted them to say, 'we're ah so very sorry', regardless of (or without a trace of clue about) what Yemeni sources in situ report.

Then the entire story was rushed to the BBC, and now plenty of parliamentaries at the House of Commons can finally sleep well (which they couldn't that much lately, because of all the criticism of British sales of arms to the KSA).
