Reader comment on item: Biden's Emerging Foreign Policy
in response to reader comment: An American Attempt to Redefine Middle Eastern Dynamics From Before Until Now
Submitted by M Tovey (United States), Apr 7, 2021 at 13:18
There are many places and sources of where the world and its history might be researched and patterns of empires reviewed to get a sense of how badly things might turn out if current ambitions of desires and power are not mitigated and redirected in a way that does not lead the world to its own destruction. Unfortunately, when the last American 45th Administrative Chief Executive attempted to provide a certain stability to the region most likely to initiate a contravening sense of those destructive influences and moderated the Iranian Islamic Regime's bold and rogue endeavors to appropriate that control of those influences in the region in an affront to peace, the enemies of peace (and Israel) reacted in the only way they understood; destroy bastions of truth and justice, for only where there is adherence to law and order, is there peace.
The truth of this is seen in all the places that are tainted with proxy efforts to destabilize the region until all capitulate to the ruthless actions of destroying perceptions of whose rule is recognized; Israel is the focus; all other places in torment are the sources of fuel for the fire: Syria; Biblical Israel; Yemen; Azerbaijan; just to name some of the more cautionary places. They are symbolic and emblematic of the replacement mentality that has plagued the region for millennia.
As is mentioned previously, the dynamics are now being forced to redefine how the region may be approached since all of the attention being given is now compromised by no one looking for the peaceful way, but the way of might over right.
Until recently, the powder keg was hard to identify; this is changing; who will reach the fuse first?
