A New Middle East

Egypt's President urges Palestinians to lay aside grievances, co-exist with Israel. In completely unrelated news, the United States just opened a permanent military base in Israel for the first time.

Israel's survival is not thereby assured; Iran keeps promising to wipe it out with its missile program. But I heard somebody say something encouraging on that front today, so maybe it'll work out.

UPDATE: Also good news, Turkey isn't going to get some US weapons. They're not really allies any more, not under this government. Many Turks are great people, but at the moment we can no longer regard them as an ally.

Apparently, Netanyahu and al Sisi met on the sidelines during today's UN speechifying, too. I haven't seen anything on subject matter or outcomes.

And people said WWIII was a Deep State operation designed to put the blame on Muslims, so Bush II was a Deep State Skull and Bones operative... except Trum is now putting a base in Israel.

Sighs.

Those online prophets may have been right about Trum.
