This is all just mental buzz; distinctions without differences. All Arabist states in the Mideast undergoing leadership change go either mild or extreme radical, and their collective “vision” is to unite against Israel is a war of extermination.
Within one year, all these nations will have armed up and be poised on Israels’ frontiers ready, willing, and eager to attack. Iran and to a lesser extent, Saudi Arabia will buy off all the factions within the various radicalist movements with the understanding that they are committed to jihad against Israel.
Sometime near the US elections, Israel with be faced with the choice of its lifetime: To either await simul-attack from all directions, in a repeat of 1967 and 1973; or, to pre-emptively take out enemy forces with a stunning level of violence and decisiveness not previously seen. If these attacks are pre-emptive, there might be a decent chance for the avoidance of the use of nuclear weapons. If Israel waits until attacked, IMO nuke use become a near certainty. Damascus = gone.
American Jews, despite seeing the impending destruction of Israel, reduce their Dem/Rep voting percentage from 72% to 59%.
That’s my prediction and I’m sticking to it.
Last chance to see scenic Aswan Dam...
I think your prediction is quite realistic.
It will be interesting to see the tools Israel uses this go-round.
I think Stuxnet took everyone by surprise.
