A genuine question:

Gulf countries, #SaudiArabia #Emirates and #Bahrein normalised with #Israel to 'counter #Iran". How can Israel help defeating Iran when the entire Israeli army is lockdown in barracks , afraid of #Hezbollah, a tiny small group ally of Iran?

Strange policy.

#US is spending $10 bn in #Lebanon, not to build schools, universities, hospitals, innovative agriculture & industry or alternative energy but to counter #Hezbollah. But Hezb imposed a President (@General_Aoun), a PM (Hassan Diab) and the speaker is his ally.

Weird investment.

And #SaudiArabia King Salman speaks at the #UN against a small group, #Hezbollah, rising the level of a non-state actor to an important player, a competitor to Saudi Arabia's influence.

Also @SecPompeo remembers Hezbollah every single day and imposes sanctions every month on it.

That takes me to my initial question:

If powerful leaders can't stand to a small group like #Hezbollah? Poor #Israel. U r raising your expectation on an army that doesn't want to fight, is spending most of its time hiding, and you normalise to counter #Iran?

What a crazy logic.

I better go to bed and sleep on it, trying to find some logic to this thinking.

Good night world.
