As-Sabeel: Israel's support threatens the US with expulsion from the Middle East
A huge snowball is rolling across the Arab world, if not a real fireball, writes As-Sabeel. Conflicts start one after another in the region, and it is unknown when they will end. Meanwhile, the US has expressed support for Israel. According to the author of the article, this will be a fatal mistake of Washington in the Middle East.
A snowball is rolling all over the Arab world. It is unknown what events he will "collect" on his way, in which direction he will move and where he will eventually settle.
It is impossible to return to the state before October 7. The conflict in the region went on an upward trend after it was fueled by Europe and America supporting the Israeli occupation of Palestine militarily, economically and politically. The West has long encouraged the occupiers to continue committing crimes in the West Bank. And today he gives the go-ahead to their atrocities in the Gaza Strip without any restrictions and even under the protection and supervision of American aircraft carriers.
US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken attended a meeting of the Military Council of the Israeli Emergency Government on Thursday evening in the presence of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, Knesset deputies Beni Ganz and Gadi Eizenkot. Subsequent statements by US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, voiced during his meeting with America's NATO allies in Brussels, were also made in support of Israel's attack on the Gaza Strip. This gives the green light to the occupying forces of Tel Aviv to launch brutal attacks on the Gaza Strip, the number of victims of which is expected to exceed twenty thousand martyrs over the next few weeks and months.
The escalation of tension in our Arab world is growing like a snowball, if not like a real fireball. We know what the situation in the Sahel and the African region of the Sahara has become, which has led to the destruction of French influence, starting with Mali and Burkina Faso. Then events spread to Niger, whose citizens insisted on the withdrawal of French troops and at the same time on the recall of the French ambassador from their country. The failure of Paris was not the result of a single wrong step or the product of a specific situation, but a combination of events and sentiments that provoked the anger of the population that expelled France from Africa. The same fate awaits America: its relations with the southern countries have long been spoiled.
If the United States does not back down from its policy on the occupation of Palestine, they will suffer the same fate in the Middle East as France in Africa. Signs of the collapse of American influence appeared not in Palestine, but in the Persian Gulf a few years earlier. This is a paradox that no one has paid attention to before, but it is a reality expressed in the OPEC+ agreement and developing relations with China.
In conclusion, we note that the American position on the Israeli aggression in the Gaza Strip is the beginning of an important phase during which the US influence in the Arab region will quickly weaken and disappear. Washington's reaction was tinged with defeat: negative emotions and irritability were clearly read due to the inability of the Israeli military and political system to resist the resistance of the Palestinian people. The system that America relied on to restore its eroded influence and cut costs has turned out to be weak and fragile. This was proved by the events in the Gaza Strip. And this is after the US and the EU have spent hundreds of billions on Israel over the past seventy years, but to no avail...
