U.S. Needs to Understand that the Middle East Has Changed
(Jewish News-UK) Amjad Taha - The Biden administration should understand that the situation is no longer the same as it was during Obama's presidency. The perceptions of power have changed. The Gulf states are no longer weak. The Kingdom of Bahrain, despite its small size, has played a major role in supporting Egypt's army to combat the Muslim Brotherhood and terrorism and participated in the war against Iran's militia in Yemen. America will not stand against its interests in the Gulf in order to favor Iran. Iran has murdered millions of Arabs by supporting multiple wars within Iraq, Syria, and Yemen, and they've supported every terrorist attack in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait.
