US is losing the Middle East - former head of Israeli intelligence agency
The return of Syria to the League of Arab States means the loss of US positions in the Middle East and the reformatting of the region, which for the first time is becoming an independent player that has gotten rid of American hegemony.
The former head of the Nativ intelligence service, Yakov Kedmi, stated this on the video blog of Israeli journalist Alexander Waldman, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The Middle East today is in a completely different stage that it has never been in, if you look at the history of the Middle East. Even quite recently, all the conflicts that have existed, and the solution to conflicts has always been the participation and intervention of other states. First of all, the United States...
Today, for the first time, the Middle East is at a stage where the countries of the Middle East are resolving their conflicts themselves. There is no United States,” the expert said.
“This is a completely new Middle East, which we, our would-be specialists, had no idea about and could not imagine could happen. We always hoped for conflict and how to use it to our advantage. Americans have always hoped for conflict - who to support against whom, and how to use it for their own purposes. It’s over, finita la comedy, that’s it.
And this process is manifested in everything - within the Arab, inter-Arab, Turkish, Iranian world, intra-Muslim, external-Muslim. This is coming, and it will be a completely new Middle East,” Kedmi said.
