League of Illusions
(Ynet News) Guy Bechor - Representatives of the Arab League are amending the "Saudi initiative" and turning it into a "peace" treaty with Israel. Really? Who does the Arab League represent? Only the regimes of the Sunni countries, or what's left of them. The Shiite countries - Iraq, Syria, Yemen and Lebanon - no longer cooperate with this league. So Israel makes peace with the Sunnis; but what about the others? We must keep in mind that the territory the IDF will withdraw from will be seized immediately by armed Salafis from all across the Arab world - as was the case in Sinai and Syria. Who will come to Israel's aid when it is attacked? The writer heads the Middle East Division at the Lauder School of Government at the Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya.
