In our latest, @HeshamAlghannam and I argue that the regional trend of pivoting towards Asia has become a more attractive option in light of the War on Gaza--to counter both US hegemony and its pro-Israeli biases.

How Gaza war is pushing the region eastward

The unwavering US support for Israel’s war on Gaza has left a bitter taste in the region. Anger is mounting not only in the Arab world but also across the Global South, over what is seen as western...

Iran now hosts 1 out of every 10 Afghans! 400,000 Afghans have fled the country to Iran after the Taliban takeover, which is 3 times the number airlifted by US & its allies out of Kabul.

Amid a crackdown, Afghan refugees in Iran fear the 'unthinkable': Being sent back

Iran, which is home to 3 million Afghans, with thousands more arriving daily, is sending more and more refugees back — into the hands of the Taliban.

MbS in 2017: we’ll work to have the battle inside Iran... what seemed a bluff back then is a reality now. The tit-for-tat alarm is on! Curious to see how big the response will be

تعود #الإمارات لواقع المنطقة وملزومات أمنها تارکةً أعواماً من الطموح الإقليمية المخلة بأمنها وأمن جاراتها. الأمل الآن بعودة #السعودية إلی سياسة مبنیة علی الواقع لا الآمال. علينا التعايش في هذه الجغرافيا التي لا تضيق إلا لمن اتّسع خياله علی حساب مقدراته

70%? Where did you get that from? Do you think your source is legit? How legit do you think it is? Why do you think it’s legit? When did you start thinking that it’s legit? Where did it start thinking about it being legit? Again, do you really think it’s legit?

“ @jrezaian cherry-picked and ignored the history. Between 1998 and 2005, EU trade with Iran almost tripled & price of oil quintupled. Iran took 70 percent of that hard-currency windfall & invested it in its then-covert nuclear & ballistic missile programs.”

4. To stop the onslaught on Gazans, members of the Axis—in Iraq, Syria, Yemen & Lebanon—have been eager to remind the US of the need to leash Israel. With the rising toll, those actions are to increase & absent a ceasefire, diplomatic channels cannot stymie their broadening.

A big gap between two bodies of elites-with exceptions-regarding Gaza: 1. Western elites expect an end to Hamas and Gaza as an independent entity 2. Arab/Muslim elites expect a game-changing win for Hamas with regional reverberations Haven't seen such a gap for years

So conventional arms control in the Middle East is not an issue for the Trump admin. What’s important is who have the arms. Having committed war crimes and created the worst humanitarian crisis according to the UN is a secondary issue!

3. Hamas is strong enough. With the battle being managed strongly by Hamas, the Axis of Resistance won’t expand the conflict. The Axis top priority though is Hamas survival-victory. The conflict will widen when Hamas is in jeopardy--not the case for now & quite far-fetched.

Proving wrong Iran’s perception of EU’s global role+defying their own commitments in the JCPOA, the E3 kept showcasing themselves as mediators after US violation of the deal. They are now further downgrading EU’s leverage/power from mediators to appeasers of the bully/violator!

Iran is not likely to abide by Israeli red lines, and to uphold the credibility of its deterrence doctrine, Tehran will feel compelled to retaliate against an Israeli attack. Misperceptions of Tehran’s true intentions could lead to disaster.
