#NasrallahKilling #ArabRelief #IranInterests #TerrorismNotWar #TheAbrahamAccords #TrumpCredit There is a sense of joy, of #HiddenJoy, in the #ArabCapitals over the death of #HassanNasrallah. In German it would be called #Schadenfreude, #EvilJoy. And in fact, with the exception of Shiite Iraq and the circumstantial mourning of #ErdoganTurkey, which is not Arab anyway, not a word of condolence has come from the other governments of the #MiddleEast. There was no anger, rather relief if not even celebration. Nasrallah was considered a #Terrorist by many Arab countries, first and foremost #SaudiArabia. #MehranKamrava, #GeorgetownUniversity, tells @Reuters that Nasrallah was not acting in the interests of the #ArabWorld or even those of #Islam. Moreover, he was an outpost of the #Shiites in a region that is largely #Sunni. And as is known, there is a hatred between Shiites and Sunnis that is often deeper than that for #ChristianInfidels. As for the reactions of #Iran, also not an Arab country, there is little concern. The #Ayatollahs know well that they cannot survive in the event of open #WarWithIsrael. First of all, because Israel has the #NuclearBombs and Iran does not yet. And secondly, because such a scenario would inevitably see #AmericanIntervention. Even #JoeBiden said so, who will not go down in history for his geopolitical intelligence. Again in Kamrava's opinion, the architects of #IslamicFundamentalism theorized by Khomeini, pursue a doctrine called strategic patience, whereby they play the long game. #TerrorismYes, #WarNo. ''So in a stunning turn of events, the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in an Israeli airstrike should serve as a crucial moment of reflection for the #ArabWorld. This moment is not only about Hezbollah or Nasrallah himself, but also about the deeper realization that Iran — the key backer of Hezbollah — is an unreliable ally whose interests starkly diverge from those of the broader #ArabMuslimWorld''. ‘’For decades, Iran has positioned itself as the self-styled defender of #PalestinianRights, and the vanguard of resistance against Israel. Through proxy groups such as Hezbollah, Tehran has wielded influence in #Lebanon, #Iraq, #Syria, #Yemen, claiming to be at the forefront of the fight against Western and Israeli aggression’’. ‘’But behind the facade of resistance lies a pattern of betrayal, where #ArabMuslimInterests have consistently been sacrificed on the altar of Iran's own geopolitical ambitions’’. Well said, Prof. Kamrava. And for my part I want to add a note: paradoxically, the #AbrahamAccords for a strategic and peaceful #MiddleEastRedesign re-emerge from the #LebaneseRubble. Guess who promoted them? The hated #DonaldTrump. But sometimes being right too late is like not being right at the right time.
