Can anybody make any sense out of this? Following the trail of the connections and cross connections of the M.E. are beyond rational discussion. The U.S. is backing the Saudi's in Yemen which is a proxy type of war against Iran, and simultaneously the U.S. more or less collaborates with Iran in fighting ISIS and gives tacit approval to the Israeli's to whack off Iran's nuke scientists - off the records. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Some people are approving of this attempt by M.E. countries to handle their own regional ongoing wars, but what is there to make of it? The histories, the complexities require a PhD to get through.

Its an ugly situation. It bankrupted the Romans once.
Presumably somebody in the State Department has a mile long flow chart with concentric overlapping circles that somehow explains it all. It's way beyond the ordinary US citizen who can't even figure out why their own interests might be getting violated by the people they vote for in their very own communities. In the M.E. I would think a handshake might mean somebody likes you or wants to kill you, it all depends, could even mean both.
