Looking Other Way
QODS: The United States and others that arm President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi's government are looking the other way as his forces abuse citizens under the dubious logic that he is aiding the fight against ISIL - that spawn of the Iraq War. This includes the Islamic Research Council of Al-Azhar University, which claims the Gaza tunnels are being used to threaten Egypt's security. This has to stop.
 
Evil Desire
KHORASAN: Because of Washingtn’s desire for regime change in Damascus and its plans to divide Iraq, the U.S. government has been delaying aid to the Iraqi government too. Iran and Russia, on the other hand, have stepped in to militarily help Baghdad, alongside Syria, to fight the theatrical organization of ISIL. While the U.S. is covertly supporting the division of Iraq, Israel is overtly supporting this too.
 
Dark Policy
MIZAN: There can be no question that Washington’s new dark of night policy is not to reduce what the Pentagon might call the U.S. military footprint in the Middle East. Obama's key officials seem to be opting not for blunt-edged, Bush-style militarism, but for what might be thought of as a new colonial scheme: A much more aggressive military program as regards the resistance group of Ansarullah to force them into surrender.
 
Risky Business
HEMAYAT: Riyadh’s allies, including the United States, are getting entrapped in a risky military adventure where the Saudis do not even have an exit strategy. The lack of an exit strategy is especially annoying, because the cost of the war is rising at a time when Riyadh is running a sizeable budget deficit due to low oil revenues. The war on Yemen is going nowhere, just as in Iraq and Syria.
