The WikiLeaks documents are a total crack up when discussing the Mid-East. It reads like a Jerry Lewis movie. This is what they tell us.
1)
1) Israel, despite denials, is supporting (albeit it after the fact) Iranian dissenters
2) Iran, despite denials, is support Iraqi dissenters.
3) Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and other Gulf Nations despite denials, are urging the US to attack Iran to stop them from getting a Nuclear weapon.
4) Hezbollah is illegally using Ambulances and Medical Shipments to smuggle arms in from Iran.
5) Iran accuses America of releasing these documents on purpose to embarrass Iran.
6) The United States is attacking “terrorists”, but accidentally civilians in Yemen.
7) 7. Yemen is taking credit and/or blame for US attacks on its civilians.
8) 8. Rich Saudi Arabians are still funding Al Queda which we are actively fighting in Yemen, Somalia and Afganistan.
9) 9. Syria arms Hezbollah, and lies about it.
Of these issues:
1, 2, and 7 are embarrassing but not illegal
3. would be an act of war and an act of “terrorism” as defined by the United States
4, and 9 are illegal but we all know Hezbollah and Syria lie
5 is silly
6 is an illegal act of war – but we don’t care because we are doing it.
8 is disgusting, but we kowtow to Saudi Arabia anyway so no one cars
