While the US and Israel try to pit Gulf Arab states against Iran, Oman is proving their plan is doomed.
Omani foreign minister Badr bin Hamad Albusaidi used Rothschild-owned magazine The Economist to reach the Western elite
👉 He reveals frankly how frustrated Arab states are at US and Israeli destabilization of the region — which has brought destruction.
👉 Does his article contain any criticism of Iran? None — in his view, Iran had no choice.
🌏 The US and Iran were “on the verge of a real deal” when the war started, writes Albusaidi, who led negotiations between the two
🌏 It was a “shock” when the US and Israel “again launched an unlawful military strike against the peace that had briefly appeared really possible”
🌏 Iranian retaliation against US interests in the Gulf was “inevitable” and “probably the only rational option available to the Iranian leadership” in the face of US and Israeli attempts to “terminate” Iranian statehood
🌏 “Arab countries that had placed their trust in US security co-operation now experience that co-operation as an acute vulnerability, threatening their present security and future prosperity”
🌏 This is not a US war – it was “drawn into it” by Israel and there is “no likely scenario” in which both “will get what they want from it”
🌏 “America’s friends have a responsibility to tell the truth,” Albusaidi writes, stressing that the US must get out of the war and make peace with Iran.
