Arab League Rejects Attack Against Syria

[Alamuti Lotus]

4. There are fierce divisions, but a lot of that is just for show

Morocco, Jordan, and the Gulf dictators are squarely lined up behind the plotters for war, except Oman--the sultan opposes Saudi arrogance and hegemony and has close enough ties to Iran to maintain effective neutrality. Yemen is practically a client state of the Saudi dictatorship now. Iraq is obviously fiercely opposed, as are Lebanon and Algeria. I haven't seen Libya's stance, but I assume that the NATO Republic would speak and vote however it is told to. I would have assumed the same about the fascist military dictatorship in Egypt, but the dictator Sisi is bizarrely triangulating his position between the Wahhabi/Zionist axis and the resistance arc and seems to be opposing any such actions at this time.

Note that these particular divisions (monarchies vs. republics) exist on virtually every issue.

I can't imagine that the Saudi-dominated camp opposes these schemes (most of the oil and gas dictatorships host some US/Euro military base of some kind), so some sort of performance is almost certainly taking place.
