We are now the laughing stock of the world.
Payback however will be satisfying...:-)
But our efforts now in the Middle East have been severely hampered and this has only begun to play out.
We have insulted our best strategic ally in the area and it will be very costly....
Yup. I told my husband last night I couldn't imagine a worse thing happening to us in the WOT than this. Aside from a direct hit from a nuclear attack, that is. And now the UAE's help with watching Iran is in question.
Our best strategic ally is Israel, not UAE.
One has to wonder why the UAE would take such drastic action if the White House was bending over backwards to reassure the UAE about an eventual approval of their deal. My guess is UAE is getting the cold shoulder now, and that's why they've erupted.

John Kerry, is that you?
