CO-EDITOR MIDDLE EAST BRIEFING / WASHINGTON DC

[ESAM A AZIZ @EsamMeb1]

Mark Perry..RIP. We had our differences, but I always respected you. Goodbye my friend

One of the serious side effects of the conflict between the Israelis and the Palestinians now is the wave of antisemitism that is engulfing the Middle East at this moment..The conflict will end but this will last.

An incredibly powerful image. A bit taken back by this one.....

The calculated timing of Israel's provocations targetting Palestinians was convenient to some politicians in Israel. Now, it looks like PM Netanyahu will keep his seat for another term.

If Trump is to form an independent party (The Patriot Party), Democrats may remain in the WH for decades.

[Nicolas Tenzer @NTenzer]

J'avoue que j'ai ri (car il faut rire aussi même, voire surtout, quand les événements sont tragiques ou inquiétants, et même si aucun des deux n'est vraiment drôle...).

For everyone who thinks that #Biden will be tough on the #UAE, we shouldn't forget they have a lot of friends in the new administration - former US ambassador to Abu Dhabi to become member of NSC

Were the Capitol police guards deliberately left under-prepared to allow a crazy mob to weave the robe of hanging their own idiot boss?? Was it a modern-era Greek tragedy?

This whole crisis in the US reflects a deeper crisis in how the political process flows AND the NARRATIVE that creates the public conception of it.

[ESAM A AZIZ @EsamMeb1]

Time to assess the far-reaching impact of this terrifying episode on the future of the US political process

[ESAM A AZIZ @EsamMeb1]

It is indeed a critical moment in US history. I pray it will pass quickly. Please, watch again #Sen Mitch #McConnell on the floor today.

Feeling sad for Nashville..Thank God only 3 wounded. When will this hatred end? Merry Christmas to all.

#Mahathir Mohammed seems to be competing with #Erdogan for the leadership chair of the crazies. This cancer is more serious than a lot of us think. No room to appease a "moderately" crazy group to confront the craziest crazy groups

[ESAM A AZIZ @EsamMeb1]

The only mistake of Macron is the timing of his attack against fundamentalists' terrorism..It just came shortly before the US elections

[ESAM A AZIZ @EsamMeb1]

The Moslem Brotherhood eternal tactic: encourage fanatics discretely, then tell the world that they (the MBs themselves) is the only force that can confront those fanatics!

Le secrétaire-général de l'Union internationale des savants musulmans Ali Mohiedine Al-Qaradaghi, basée au Qatar et liée au Frères musulmans, a des "doutes" sur l'attentat de Conflans, "une manipulation des services de renseignements français", dit-il sur Tweeter.

The Scorpion is gone. The future fo the ME is definitely better.

We have obtained a secret audio recording of a Moscow meeting between three Russian operatives and a close aide to Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini negotiating a plan to pump money from a Russian oil deal into Salvini’s far-right Lega party
