A Happy Sunday in July Just Got Shattered. Turbulence in the Middle East 'Disappointing'.

Posted by HCN on Sunday, July 12, 2026
When some think of Arab unity, what do they think of?
News developing this weekend is that Iran has targeted several nations, per AP news earlier this morning, Sunday 7/12, including Kuwait, Oman, Jordan, Qatar, and Bahrain, in response to being struck by the USA.
It might be putting the sequence of events in reverse order, however, looking into layers of the future, right now that equation is about as all time dismal and low as the Arab World can get (opinion). There could be worse, but anything worst than that, might as well be the end of time here on earth.

Evidently, the chicken before the egg sequence of strikes is in occurrence right through here. The US struck Iran, thus far in about 140 spots roughly speaking, in the sequence after Iran struck a vessel in the Strait of Hormuz.
Going back, Iran got involved after onslaught of a ticket that was an outgrowth of ramifications of the October 7th situation. Plus the cry of Iran being a nuclear presence in the region. Perhaps with the illustrated potentiality of Iran's willingness to perform missile strikes on targets in Israel, whereas Iran's rationale may be considered aside, such as acceptable or unacceptable, who promotes, condones, or condemns, it has increased discomfort with Iran by powers in Middle East or those with an interest or presence in the region.

But again, how ever was the series of events that led everything to be where things are now, right now is a shattered peace, a fabric of the sort that many would rather not pick up to examine whether to wear it or function on it.

It could be that man was bound to fight from the start, or that contentions stemming from 'horse's post' in the region from times of antiquity on, continues.

All said, the present situation isn't the kind of world order that's should exist. The US performing strikes, Israel performing strikes, Strait of Hormuz in the leveraging center over oil, -what if economics of oil was obsolete?-, who's got nuclear power, who feels who shouldn't be a safe place to live because they can't be trusted with their nuclear capability, so some perish while others do no not, meanwhile, on the individual level, everybody is cousins spanning the globe.

Digging a little deeper into building the peace process, and acting on it, might be the calling.

Refer Burma/Myanmar page for air strikes over the EOM February/2026 start of March 2026 time frame. Up for consideration is the be mindful of the whole pie concept. There may very well be a double team set of missile strikes going on on Iran, subject to differing views; however there are still a number of situations going on globally that are weighted, such as violence in different areas of where the Sahel and Northern Africa meet, situations of starvation in the eastern areas of the belt as well; and missile strikes in other regions.
