This story writes itself.
Elliott Abrams in the WSJ noting how both US and Israeli relationships with Arab neighbors of Iran are much improved with each step Tehran takes toward nuclear weapons capacity:
Who will stop the Iranian nuclear weapons program, the Arabs wonder; they place no faith in endless negotiations between earnest Western diplomats and the clever Persians.
Israel is the enemy of their enemy, Iran. Now, the usual description of Arab-Israeli relations as "hostile" or "belligerent" is giving way to a more complex picture.
Once begun, the Big Bang is never done. We topple the Taliban and Saddam, and Iran must reach for protection. That protection creates its own backlash, and so it goes. No going back. The speeding up of history: speeding the killing, speeding the threats, speeding up the dynamics. Top-down solutions emerging after decades of wasted bottom-up efforts to forge the perfect peace plan. Nukes clarify the mind all right.
And we are all better off for that scary journey.
