|
| The view from Egypt includes ISIS training camps as far away as Libya, transhipment via the Turkish secret service (MIT) and American-led MOCs in Jordan, and all that Iran supports on the other side. |
[AlAhram] In the throes of sectarian and proxy conflicts, the region in recent years saw not only a proliferation of terrorist organizations, but interwoven interests that kept terrorism itself alive.
| Long and a bit verbose, but with this interesting paragraph, left untranslated so its full flavour can be appreciated: |
The next two years brought an array of different events and developments, but as 2015 and 2016 came and went there remained an important constant: the lack of clarity in how that drive was conducted. Observers, counterterrorism experts and strategy designers agreed that this factor was lacking in Washington’s mentality and its approach to the war. They were at a loss as to how to explain the US’s responses to developments on the ground in Syria that, at one point, president Barack Obama felt compelled to give a lengthy interview to The Atlantic in order to defend his policies and his strategy, such as it was. The title of the interview — “The Obama Doctrine” — acquired a certain fame in its own right.
