GULF STATES FEAR A NUCLEAR IRAN MORE THAN ISRAEL

JPOST:
[Fomer GOP Senator and Clinton Secretary of Defense] Cohen arrived in Israel Wednesday night after visiting a number of Gulf states, including Abu Dhabi and Dubai, as well as Jordan.

Cohen said that during his talks with leaders in those counties he heard "sentiments" acknowledging that Iran was the greatest threat to stability in the Middle East and no longer Israel. ...


"They understand that Iran is a threat to them all," he said. "There is a convergence of interest evolving and you can find that Israel is not being seen as the adversary. ... They are not yet ready to announce diplomatic relations with Israel but the sentiment is shifting and they understand that Iran is the major threat to them and not Israel."
This is good, but will the shift come in time... before Iran has nukes!?!?
