| U.S. Seeking to Allay Gulf Fears amid Regional Chaos |
| 2015-04-20 |
| [AnNahar] With conflicts raging across the Middle East, the U.S. is seeking to reassure its Gulf allies that it has a regional strategy which will be bolstered, not shredded, by any Iran nuclear deal. The U.S. administration appears increasingly caught in a game of whack-a-mole as it confronts a series of complex challenges, with Saudi-led ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic... just the latest complication in a regional tinderbox pitting Sunnis against Shiites, and even Sunni against Sunni. |
