Israel and Egypt are not going to be enemies. The military dictatorship in Egypt has no interest in letting the Muslim Brotherhood come to power. No general wants to take orders from some inept cleric.

As for Turkey, they co-operated with Israel because of common interests during the cold war. The Soviet Union was at their throat. Now they have less of a reason to co-operate with Israel. Fine. So be it. Let the two nations go their separate ways. I don’t see the need to act like jilted lovers.

This is about countries aligning their foreign policy with the national interest. Is anyone enough of a dingbat to think that entire countries move their foreign policy and military policy on some whims of personality?

The US had fairly cool employee relations with Israel after its founding. Then Egypt went into the Soviet camp, so they cozied up to Israel. Now there’s no need. Israel is by far militarily capable of handling herself and the cold war is over. We should co-operate when we can, and when we cannot, so be it.

But while we’re on the subject, the Muslim world needs to stop bringing up this stupid red herring of the Palestinians. Turkey has the Kurds and the Armenians. Syria and Jordan have both oppressed plenty of Palis , Iran should really not talk about human psychology rights. The Ummah is cutting each other’s throats day and night and then have the nerve to lecture people on the path of peace. We all know this is a silly political game you’re playing and no Islamic government actually cares about the Palis/

Talk about your national interests with Israel, and stay off the moral high horse. That way at least some sort of professional working relationship with the Israelis can develop.
