this is really interesting to see the realignment in the middle east. i like to work on the history of this region because the realignments are fast and furious. we could go back a few decades and recollect when the us and israel and iran were all partners in a strategic alliance. and we're sharing weaponry and technology and military secrets and military aid, security assistance. now, in this day and age, we've seen another realignment, and we are seeing indeed the saudis moving gradually toward the israeli camp. however, we don't want to overestimate that the saudis and the iranians have had diplomatic relations. they have re—established ties. they are talking to each other. and there is to some extent a risk here of exaggerating, i think, the extent to which the saudis have gravitated toward the us—israeli camp in this conflict. let's take a look at some of the stories in the headlines in the uk. members of the house of lords have inflicted a second defeat on the government over its plans to send some asylum seekers to rwanda. peers backed an ame
