Two major developments in the Middle East this week. The US appears poised to hand control of the Strait of Hormuz over to the Iranians, even as it whines that it doesn’t need it anyway.
Meanwhile, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan inked a major security partnership, dissing the US attempt to corral the countries of the region into the pro-Israel Abraham Accords. That prompted pro-Israel shills to downplay the Mecca agreement and predict its demise.
As a bonus for Arabic speakers, I was interviewed by Egypt’s Al Qahera TV about the latest developments in the Iran conflict.
