President Sisi and the Arab League’s last golden chance to restore the domestic peace and tranquility in the Middle East

President Sisi To The Rescue



Its only fitting that Egyptian President Sisi is heading the effort to pick up the pieces from the Arab spring and somehow glue them all back together. As many experts predicted, sooner or later the Arab League would have to address the chronic problems in Yemen. And by proxy the problems in the Middle East and North Africa too.
We can only hope as things grow worse for the beleaguered nation of Yemen, that somehow the Arab League unifies with a greater sense of unity and urgency in regards to the growth of Islamic State terror. There can be no doubt about the dangers of letting the terrorists in Syria get the upper hand. It is one thing to force the Islamic State out of Iraq, it is another to crush them in Syria, which is exactly what needs to be done. Any truly great leader will tell you that, during times of immense peril, a region’s nation states security, demands they mutually override inconvenient liabilities, and of course, political pitfalls that are endemic to this particular region of the world. If the Islamic State is to be defeated, there will be great risks, people will die. Yet yet in spite of the dangers, the Arab League could create a Saladin like army that has sufficient power to restore order in Yemen, Iraq, Syria and elsewhere. The question is, will they? Nobody knows, but if this Arab League directed military force assembles in great strength and unity, then we just might have a solution to the tragic crisis in Syria, Iraq and elsewhere. One would guess the unsettling events in Yemen, further exacerbated by burgeoning ranks of terrorist jihadists who are seemingly everywhere, combined with Iran once again growing their power in the region, has the Arab League seriously thinking about pulling the old Saladin great army trick. In that the Arab League knows, or should know, if they assemble a large enough army, then the Islamic State is no match for an Arab League unified force.

The Arab League are well advised to first consider the individual State benefits of following through on the creation of a massive multi state army. Because, the problem of Islamic State military terror has been allowed to continue running amok in areas where Middle Eastern and North African politics kept regional nations from doing anything significant to help one another quell the rise of Islamic State military terrorism. If the Arab League does not rise to meet this threat, then the Islamic State will continue to grow. Remember, the trick is for Arab League delegates to envision their mutual goals first, looking forwards to a day when the threat of militant jihadist terror is a thing of the past. Which was almost the case in 2009 when Al Qaeda suspended operations in Iraq, simply because continued operations in Iraq would lead to certain death via the U.S. Military. But then came the big woupps, where we see this equation, Obama + Maliki + Hillary = Islamic State, but why re hash old news, we are keeping a positive eye on the Arab League with rapt attention.

Iranians need to be sent packing

Another excellent reason to assemble the Arab League - Saladin sized army is, Arab League nations can take over the war against the Islamic State, without Teheran’s assistance. The sooner the Arab League can tell the big Iranian turban wearing terrorist enabler in Teheran that his services are no longer needed, the better, as in, thanks much, time for your army to head back to Iran. But that is not the case in Iraq, where currently Iran’s big general Soleimani is acting like a spoiled brat who can not get his way, because he thinks he is the world’s greatest military genius. Somebody needs to kick the prima donna general to the curb. The Iranians seek to destroy any efforts to build a coalition that does not benefit them. This is why Iranians talk about the war in Iraq out of one side of their mouths, and then chant death to America out of the other. Iran’s verbose political buffoonery and the battle of Tikrit are forcing the Arab League to re learn Iranians all over again. Texans have an old saying, “ya dance with who brung ya”. The Arab League would be well advised to remember this saying when Iranian problems crop up in the future.

Those who will not learn must feel

History via Saladin’s Ayyubid army demonstrates the power of a unified Arab military, may the Arab League forge an alliance that once and for all, rids themselves of military terror. Because this time, failure to unify, will have catastrophic results.
