@SimonDixonTwitt It should always have been called West Asia. Middle East and Near East are relative terms. Colonial attitudes.
Though I'm not sure if you mean that in your post @SimonDixonTwitt

The Middle East will become West Asia again in the multi polar world order.

I love Greece, but why is it even a question still about military competition between Türkiye and Greece.
That's like comparing the military power of Russia and Romania. Or China and Phillipines.
How can this silly notion end?
Greece needs to make concessions.
It really seems like the US MIC, for atleast a decade, has been stirring tensions via political lobbying, advocacy groups, thinktanks and NGO/CIA intereference.

Well it isn't happening in the US. Don't get your hopes up.
Palantir-enabled surveillance state and social credit score incoming.

@GulsunarEng You still think it's *really* about values and ideology.
And you're against Erdogan who is the best leader Türkiye has had since the Ottomans.

🇹🇷🚀 Wow, Europe has never developed anything like it.
Türkiye's new Yıldırımhan ICBM with a range of 6.000km is different from those of France and Britain, whose missiles are limited to launch via submarines.
This is a gamechanger for the entire region.
Shows you what's possible.

In all the deeds of Melkor the Morgoth upon Arda, in his vast works and in the deceits of his cunning, Sauron had a part, and was only less evil than his master in that for long he served another and not himself. But in after years he rose like a shadow of Morgoth[.]

Japan needs Canadian crude oil, but can’t get it. Why?
There’s no additional export capacity. That’s why Japan is making rare purchases of crude from Mexico.

This is how the latest twitter algo works.
Now let's see what you can do with it.

@derevchenko As I said, you live in wishful, fantasy world. US betrayed Saudis and Gulf countries for Israel. Crisis is huge and unpredictable. UAE made a wrong choice.

I studied, followed offshore financial centres for 56 years. Sadly, I have to say UAE is going fast the wrong way. Get out and your money of Dubai while you still can. I see many already doing it with Switzerland and Singapore as first destinations.
English
@PopescuCo The "greater israel" project will never happen.
Like I said, Saudi Arabia and UAE are fully aligned on most issues, you're following narratives if you don't understand this.
UAE's "alignment" with israel isn't real. Will not explain further.
English
@derevchenko Dubai has a huge problem with Iran but stupidly also added a small but growing issue with Saudi Arabia. Allying with Israel infuriated not only Iran but also Saudis.
Remember Netanyahu’s Greater Israel threatens directly Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Iraq and Turkey.
