Nasser Kandil wrote: Escalation rounds

  • When the only interpretation of Riyadh's summits by announcing Iran as an enemy is the appointment of a professional killer to be responsible for the Iranian file in Washington, and when ISIS made operations to affect Tehran, then this means escalation.
  • When the Iraqi Kurdish parties announce a date for the referendum on the separation,even the war on ISIS is not over yet,and then this is escalation.
  • When the Arab countries led by Saudi Arabia take decision to humiliate Qatar in favor of the Saudi agenda and under the American cover and to threaten with a coup or an occupation, then this is an escalation.
  • When Washington bombs sites of the Syrian army and its allies for many times and announces putting red lines then this is the peak of escalation.
  • On the other hand, when Turkey ratifies military agreement with Qatar that legitimizes deploying troops in Qatar, then this is escalation especially after the Turkish-US crisis about the Kurds in Syria.
  • On the other hand, when Tehran announces that Saudi Arabia and America are behind the bombings of Tehran and that the response will be harsh, so the response to the escalation will be an escalation.
  • On the other hand, when Syria and its allies announce that the silence towards the US attacks is not weakness and it will not be prolonged because the ability to target the Americans in Syria and the region is available, so this response to the escalation is escalation.
  • The region is at the peak of escalation.
