As Trump era begins, Arab leaders should prepare for bad days
2017-01-25
[Ynet] So far, the new American president has made no effort to prove that he has a vision. He is a businessman who is out to sell the headline ’America First.’ Whoever wants to make him offers on issues unrelated to the homeland should take a number, get in line and be ready to pull out their wallet.

If I were a chief strategic advisor to one of the 22 leaders of the Arab world ‐ and it really doesn’t matter who the leader is ‐ I would write a dual recommendation:

First, go out of your way to congratulate US President Donald Trump

#6  If moving the US embassy to Jerusalem is explosive, the explosion will occur in the Arab world. If Iran tries to take advantage, then it all goes up in flames.

Buy oil stocks.

#5  Well they'll have less to worry about from Iran with Trump President. Perhaps if the Arab leaders stopped funding ISIS a Sunni block might be formed and proper lines in the sand drawn between Sunni and Shia.

Er he's strongly supported Brexit and Europe not having their own intra country oppression force (or army as the EUSSR terms it).

#3  Four former presidents – Jimmy Carter, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama – showed up for the inauguration ceremony at the White House. You won’t see such an image in any of the Arab world’s countries.

Or most of Africa's. But that's a quibble.

#1  The kings and presidents of the Arab world should pay attention to the fact that he did it the other way around: First business and millions, and only then rulership. He already knows that they do it from the other direction: Only after entering the palace, they learn how to rake in the money.

Usually I don't pay attention to Yediot Ahronot (latest news) - besides carrying the usual journo prog agency, their publisher been conducting a personal vendetta against Bibi for the last 20 year. But, LOL!
