With the Arabian Gulf, and we will remain

We learned from our fathers and grandfathers, from our heritage: "I am with my brother against my cousin, and I am with my cousin against the stranger." A familial, tribal, political equation that imposed the values of alliance and priorities, without addition or subtraction. An equation that imposes itself on us in how to deal with and determine the priorities of alignment in the face of the Israeli-American colonial war against Iran, and with our Arab Gulf countries and peoples against the unacceptable Iranian bombing of any Arab country. This is how we were in the Iraqi-Iranian war throughout its lean years; we were with Iraq without hesitation in confronting Iran. The late Hussein taught us that we were against Iraq in its invasion of Kuwait, and Hussein advised him to withdraw from Kuwait unconditionally, to protect Iraq and for the dignity of Kuwait. Saddam Hussein was stubborn and did not respond to Hussein's advice. Hussein said, and I was with him on the return flight from Iraq, Hussein said: "We will not participate in the slaughter of Iraq under the American flag," and our Jordanian army did not go to Hafar Al-Batin as Hafez al-Assad and Hosni Mubarak did. We paid the price with siege and estrangement, but we excelled by possessing national and pan-Arab dignity, with Hussein's steadfastness and wisdom, despite American anger and the reproach of our brethren. The aggressive, racist Israeli-American attack on Iran began on February 28, 2026, a neighboring Muslim country, against the backdrop of the Iranian stance: 1- Supporting the Palestinian people, 2- Rejecting the Israeli colonial project. This aggression could have made all Arabs and Muslims stand with Iran, but the Iranian mistake is similar to the Iraqi mistake in invading Kuwait on 8/2/1990, and Iran's mistake of directing bombing towards the Gulf countries and Jordan, even if it was under the pretext of targeting American institutions, overturned the Arab position and forced us to be against any infringement on our national and pan-Arab sovereignty by Iran. The Iranian bombing of the Israeli colony is the natural, legitimate, and sound response to the attack of 2/28/2026, but we fell into a deliberate trap, as we cannot stand with the colony against Iran, nor can we support Iran and remain silent about its infringement on the security and sovereignty of our countries. We are betting on the wisdom of the Arab Gulf countries, especially Oman, Saudi Arabia, and the Emirate of Qatar, which possess broad horizons and realistic practical demands, not to be dragged into a battle that Netanyahu sought and succeeded in involving the United States, the Arab Gulf countries, and Iran in a battle that is not in their interest. The war was planned and programmed by Israel for its benefit with the aim of: First, changing Arab and international media and political attention from the crimes committed by the colony against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip. Second, reducing and diminishing international sympathy and solidarity with the suffering of the Palestinian people. Third, attempting to evade and dilute attention to the International Court of Justice's demand for prosecution on the basis of the crimes it committed, and the International Criminal Court's demand for Netanyahu on the basis of responsibility for committing crimes against humanity against Palestinians. Netanyahu exploited Trump's desires, who seeks to continue American hegemony and unilateralism in international politics, especially: 1- Towards China, the economic competitor, 2- Russia, the political competitor, 3- Europe, which looks towards liberation from American dominance and unilateralism, since its victory in the Cold War. The Third Gulf War was ignited by the colony with the aim of controlling the entire Arab East, starting from the coasts of the Eastern Mediterranean to the borders of Iran. Through the United States, it succeeded in overthrowing Saddam Hussein's regime on 4/9/2003, and overthrowing Bashar al-Assad's regime on 6/8/2024, and assassinating Hezbollah leaders and Hamas and Houthi leaders, and is moving eastward towards Iran, towards the plan and program of the powerful, influential, controlling, and dominant "Greater Colony" over the peoples of our Arab East. The question we await an answer to is what will be the outcome of this war? Will the colony be able to impose its results and achieve what it seeks?
