Exactly, and maybe the most silly decision for a middle eastern country would be making alliance with another middle eastern country. Look at Iran and Iraq. After long years of hostility and a horrible devastating 8 year war, They made the most powerful alliance in the Persian Gulf area. The USA spent lots of Money in a war began with fictitious reasons against Saddam to put Iran's allies in charge in Iraq, empowering ISIS which gave Iran eligible reasons to send troops to Iraq and also Syria! Middle East is hell of a place bro! They say 124000 prophets has been sent just in this tiny area of the world!
