US Diplomacy Lost Traction in Middle East; Isolating Iran No Longer Possible - eviltoast

A joint statement on Thursday signed by the Foreign Ministers of Egypt, Jordan, Bahrain, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, and Morocco called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza Strip. In an admonition to the US and Israel, the statement stated, “The right to self-defense by the United Nations Charter does not justify blatant violations of humanitarian and international law.”

    Israel valued immediate vengeance more than isolating Iran through establishing diplomatic relations with Saudi Arabia, as a result Hamas achieved its goals in the attack while the people of Gaza suffered the greatest portion of the consequences.

    I’m not going to point fingers at who’s more wrong here. It’s pointless. My opinions have no bearing on what happens. This is just the outcome of all the actions that have taken place. This is how history will record these events.

    Who isn’t the US sanctioning at this point? The US is isolating itself from the rest of the world, and is trying to take Europe down with it.
