The situation in the Middle East is becoming increasingly tense, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has escalated into a full-scale war, and Israel has been bombing the Gaza Strip continuously, claiming to have cut off the connection with northern Gaza, and launching attacks on the headquarters of Hamas. This war could spark an even bigger spark and ignite the powder keg of the Middle East, leading to more countries being involved.
At the same time as the Palestinian-Israeli conflict broke out, the United States and Syria also clashed, and the US-backed "Syrian Democratic Army" and the Syrian ** Army and its allies engaged in a fierce exchange of fire, and the two sides used a variety of **, including medium-caliber firearms, heavy body-barreled artillery and rocket artillery. The scale and intensity of this conflict is staggering, showing the influence and ambitions of the United States in Syria.
The United States has been reluctant to withdraw from Syria, and even though the civil war in Syria is largely over, the United States still wants to maintain its interests and position in the Middle East. The United States has also repeatedly carried out airstrikes on Syrian airfields in an attempt to weaken Syria's defense capabilities and military capabilities. The conflict between the United States and Syria is undoubtedly closely related to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, because Israel is the most important ally of the United States in the Middle East, and Syria is Israel's greatest enemy.
The Middle East is a strategically important place involving three continents, Asia, Europe and Africa, and it is also a region full of contradictions and conflicts, with complex religious, ethnic and political factors. The current Palestinian-Israeli conflict is the fuse of the powder keg in the Middle East, and Israel is challenging stability and peace in the Middle East. The conflict between the US and Syrian armies is a dangerous Mars, and once it meets the flames of Israel, it may trigger another war in the Middle East.
Under such circumstances, the three important countries of the Arab world, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, should shoulder their responsibilities and obligations and show their leadership and responsibility, rather than sit idly by or take shortcuts.
Iran is a representative of Shiism, always opposed to Sunni Saudi Arabia and Israel, and a staunch supporter of Syria, with a strong military and a Russian background. Iran and Syria, with the help of Russia, should strengthen cooperation and jointly resist the interference and aggression of the United States and Israel.
Saudi Arabia is the leader of the Sunnis and the richest country in the Middle East, with huge oil resources and wealth. Saudi Arabia has reached a rapprochement with Iran with the mediation of China, and with the promotion of the United States, it has also moved towards the normalization of relations with Israel, but all this has been interrupted by the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Saudi Arabia can't blindly be a peacemaker, otherwise it will be treated as a soft persimmon by others, and eventually become a victim of others.
Turkey is a member of NATO and a powerful country in the Middle East, with overwhelming military superiority, and can easily defeat Israel, the small bully of the Middle East. Turkey's Erdogan, with ambitions to revive the Turkish empire, has earned the respect of Biden and Putin by playing the art of balancing between the United States and Russia. He can take advantage of the chaos in the Middle East and solve his biggest problem, which is the Kurdish problem. The United States has always supported the Kurds in creating their own state, which Turkey cannot tolerate. He can take the opportunity to eliminate the Kurdish forces and preserve his territorial integrity.
Now, Americans in the Middle East are withdrawing one after another, which is a dangerous sign that war is coming, and American troops stationed in various parts of the Middle East will be targeted by some armed forces. Peace and security in the Middle East are already at stake, and the joint efforts and cooperation of all parties are needed to avoid an even greater catastrophe.
