Saudi Arabia’s execution of al-Nimr has sparked three days of demonstrations among Shiite Muslims. Allies of Saudi Arabia, including the monarchy in neighboring Bahrain, began scaling down their diplomatic ties to Iran in the wake of the ransacking of Saudi diplomatic missions in Iran that followed al-Nimr’s execution.
