There is a tremendous amount of fear that you could either end up doing a reckless thing such as a military strike that could set the whole region ablaze again, or you could actually sign a deal with Iran that would be at the expense of Arab interests, and ultimately America will end up doing what it has always done: embarrass its friends, let them down, let its allies down, and sign a deal that caters to its own interests while being ***detrimental to Arab interests*** in the region.

Simultaneously, the failure of moderate governments and liberals resides, initially, in their failure to generate a broad consensus in favour of prioritising negotiated compromise solutions and, then, in contending proactively and courageously with a new regional environment in which playing the role of the American ally has become more ***detrimental to Arab interests*** than many other potential threats.

For decades, the Islamic Republic has been pursuing policies ***detrimental to Arab interests.***** Hiding behind false slogans that manipulate Arab public sentiments against Israel and America, it violated the sovereignty of Lebanon and penetrated deep into Iraq. In both countries, it fuelled sectarian policies and undermined security by deepening social divisions.
