Kerry trying to get Gulf States uniformly support Iranian deal
US Secretary of State John Kerry is trying to get the Gulf States to believe that the deal with Iran is uniformly good:
August 3, 2015
DOHA, QATAR—
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry says Gulf Cooperation Council foreign ministers have agreed that, once fully implemented, the Iran nuclear deal will contribute to their region’s security.
Kerry commented on Monday following talks with Gulf ministers in Doha on the Iran nuclear deal and other issues.
The talks were held with foreign ministers from Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman and the United Arab Emirates and followed a summit U.S. President Barack Obama held with representatives of those nations in May.
Kerry said he and Gulf ministers agreed to establish working groups that would seek to expand regional security through cooperation on issues including intelligence sharing, special forces training and maritime security. …
Kerry sought to ease concerns about last month’s multinational agreement on Iran’s nuclear program. Some GCC members have questioned if the deal, which could result in an empowered Iran, would be destabilizing to the region.
They also question if Iran would use the additional revenue that would result from lifting of international sanctions to provide more funding to militant groups such as Hezbollah.
The two sides discussed other regional issues, including Libya’s unrest as well as unrest caused by Islamic State militants in Syria and Iraq. …
The Qatari foreign minister said the Middle East was “suffering from the failures and the freeze” of the peace process,” which he said was the result of Israeli “occupation.”
He urged the United States to “exert more effort” to get the peace process back on track..
Kerry arrived in Doha, late Sunday, after spending the most of the day in Egypt in a strategic dialogue session with Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry that focused on security and other issues. http://www.voanews.com/content/kerry-gulf-cooperation-council-discuss-iran-regional-issues-/2896461.html
The Gulf States are very concerned about Iran and what Iran may do once it gets access to its frozen assets. Iran has been attempting to get Shi’ite Muslim leadership in Muslim countries in the region. The Gulf States are basically Sunni Muslim and are opposed to much of what Iran is doing. They also do NOT trust Iran.
It is likely that many of them think that they will need to look outside of the USA to protect them should Iran take steps that they are concerned about.
The Bible indicates that the Gulf States will end up in an end time confederation that will also include Egypt (Daniel 11:40-43; Ezekiel 30:2-9). The USA is encouraging that type of arrangement.
But it is an arrangement that will not end well for the participants, and prior to its end, will not end well for the USA (cf. Daniel 11:39).
