Biden had successfully destabilized the region within 60 days. Impressive.
“Hezbollah ...Iran proxy army ..protects Christians in the Syrian civil war more than anyone...”
Like they did during the Lebanese civil war?
“That is why Bidet’s moral outrage at the Saudi royal family is laughable—there is _nothing_ he can do about it.”
Doesn’t stop Joe from comically puffing out his chest and leading with that glass jaw of his.
Yes
They and Assad fought ISIS
Quite a transformation from the Lebanese civil war many years ago when Shite Amal warred against Christian forces in Lebanon
Another little nugget .....first Pali terrorists were led by Arab Christians like Haddad and Habash and that lady Hannah
Before Abu Nidal and Yassir
Makes for odd bedfellows....even Israel much beloved here sometime takes the side I wish they didn’t
Like the GOPe and NeoCons here.....remember McCain sucking up with Bagdahdi?
I’m ambivalent about the Iran Saudi binary .....it’s not so simple....
If choose the Saudi’s but Iran is not completely without some legitimacy in their gripes
Take the Recent Armenia Azerbaijani war
Armenia ....Russia Iran
Azerbaijan .....Israel...turkey
We supported turkey as a NATO member and Israel well,because we normally do
Yet most posters here objectively ....would or did support Armenia ....
Plus that the Christian over muzz route.....which I personally prefer
But like Kosovo and Bosnia we supported the Muzz
So like I said....I’m ambivalent and lean Armenia which oddly allows me against Israel and with Iran
Which is rare....
I sure do t care for Turkey
I respect r Putin but I’m under no illusions
There is no question Hezbollah is on the Christian side these days in Lebanon and Syria
So there is that.....Christians and Yazidhis flee Daesh into the arms of Hezbollah for a reason
This all stems back to when Jordan expelled the Palestinians ...brother Hashemites
That ruined Lebanon and by extension Assad dictatorship is Syria
And the rest is complicated history
Before you start.....no that doesn’t mean I want Iran to have delivery capable nukes
My sons who has educated...schooled .... me on this .....says the same thing
He thinks the Houthis rock....badass tribal warriors fighting an army that has the best tools
They were trying to have it both ways. Biden in carrying out his agenda said, up yours. Now they had to hike up their skirts and get off their bone-idle asses to defend their own interests. About time.
As I've said plenty of times around here, the best part of a muzzie civil war is, everyone wins.
