    Every attempt to invade/attack/degrade Israel failed in this same assumption.

    I’m gonna be honest and say that no country in the region deserves to even liberate the Palestinians except Palestinians themselves, and even then Hamas made the same mistake. None of their allies are trustworthy or truly care about the Palestinian cause, they simply want the resources or geopolitical influence for their own.

    • KSA and the oil states started out as classic colonial British backed anti ottoman factions, almost like the insane warlords in Afghanistan that ran the government for 20 years. They are nothing but shitty feudal dynasties that are currently propped up by US economic interests and oil money.

    • Egypt is a failed army state that thought that simply being in the military automatically makes you better and guaranteed for success (surprise it was all corruption).

    • Jordan actually put up a small fight with its rather limited resources until its King was assassinated and replaced by a shill.

    • Lebanon was and still is just a proxy war between Israel, Iran, and Syria.

    • Syria is a knockoff military dictatorship enthnostate embroiled in war crimes.

    • Iraq is another failed army state that thought it could actually take on the USA, despite also failing to do anything with Israel or Iran.

    • Iran is a backfired attempt by the US to control every country in the middle east, so now its an insane religious dictatorship.

    Every Arab-Israeli war to date is filled with nepotism and failure. Egypt alone fought multiple “wars” in an attempt to regain the territory lost in the 6 day “war” which basically a curb-stomp by the IDF, even after Jordan warned Egypt of the impending attack.

      They hate Palestinians. They just hate Israelis more. The way Palestinians are treated in the neighboring countries they have fled to is only marginally better than Israel treats them under the apartheid they were living in (I’m not talking about the current genocide, I’m talking about somewhat more peaceful times when they were still being oppressed). Egypt treats Palestinians terribly. They refuse to allow them to apply for citizenship under the excuse that Israel won’t let them back if they do. Which you would think would be the applicant’s choice, but that’s why its just an excuse. The fact is they don’t want Palestinians in Egypt to have any level of power.
