Foreign ministers from 22 Arab countries agreed to form a unified military force on Thursday, approving a draft resolution designed to counter growing security threats in the region.

"The Arab ... ministers agreed on adopting an important principle, which is forming the unified Arab military force. The task of the force will be rapid military intervention to deal with security threats to Arab nations," Arab League Secretary General Nabil Elaraby told reporters after the meeting, Reuters reported.

The agreement, which Elaraby described as “historic,” came shortly after airstrikes on Houthi rebels in Yemen, led by Saudi Arabia and its Arab allies, in an effort to check what is seen as Iran’s growing influence in the region. Iran has demanded that all military actions in Yemen be immediately halted, and said it would take necessary measures to control the crisis there. The United States has said it provided “logistical and intelligence support” to the Saudi-led coalition attacking the Houthi positions. The decision to launch the airstrikes was made without significant involvement from Washington, according to the Daily Beast.

Sunni vs Shia has been riveting the Muslim world since a century after Mohammed’s death
The only difference this time - Iran’s nukes in development and Saudi Arabia’s on order from Pakistan

Very interesting. Thanks for posting.

In the Sunni Arab world hatred of Shia heretic Persians > hatred of Israel.

“eventually, Israel” is why I had mixed thoughts.

>>Things are speeding up!<<

Right on track!

[Olog-hai]

Then why was it the Sunni Arab world that started the trouble against Israel back in 1948?

“who’s side are we on?????”

When your enemies are fighting, you want to be on neither side. But, if you have to pick a side, you better pick both sides. If Obomao is smart(doubt it), this is what is going on.

Support Iran against ISIS and supporters in Syria and Iraq. Support ISIS and supporters against Iran in Yemen. Make sure all Iranian proxies and ISIS supporters are damaged, then have Israel take out Iranian capability.
