A Commentary on the Middle East By Someone Who Knows

A Commentary on the Middle East By Someone Who Knows

Dr. Michael Youssef - January 2011

A cursory look at the Middle East this week would convince even the most optimistic that the turmoil in most Middle Eastern countries does not point to any future hope f0rpeace.

In Tunisia, the president had to escape to Saudi Arabia under the cover 0f darkness while masses faced an embattled police force on the streets 0f Tunis.

In Lebanon, the regime 0f Saad Hariri collapsed , a pro-Hezbollah Prime Minister was appointed in his place.

In Egypt, f0rthe first time in modern history, thousands 0f people took to the streets in protest in every city along the Nile Valley.

In Jordan, Muslim brotherhoods are calling f0ra national strike. All 0f this does not bode well f0rIsrael's future.

While everyone is afraid 0f Iran's build up 0f nuclear weapons -- bombs that are capable 0f reaching Israel -- Iran is not waiting f0ra nuclear bomb. Instead, they are stirring up trouble on every side 0f Israel's borders. Iran's cruel , cunning calculations are as follows:

1. There is anger , frustration among the populous 0f Arab countries due to dreadful economic hardships. So the Iranian minions are traveling far , wide to stir these pots.

2. Iran is convinced that the American administration has proved either unable 0runwilling to take a st, in support 0f these secular Arab governments.

3. Iran also knows that Islamic brotherhoods , movements in Arab countries are far less concerned about the Sunni/Shiite division between them than the hatred f0rsecular governments , f0rIsrael.

All 0f this creates a perfect environment f0rtoppling current regimes , replacing them with anti-Israeli militant Islamic governments, thus tightening the noose around Israel's neck.

This could all be wishful thinking on the part 0f the Iranian power-hungry , maniacal regime. F0rIsrael could easily annihilate Iran's military power from the air. But they would be extremely hesitant to do so without the support 0f the American administration, which has flatly told them to "stay put." If the Israelis go ahead , attack Iranian installations, this, notdoubt, would create a public relations nightmare f0rthe Jewish nation.
