Remember Iran is a huge trading partner for UAE. And the UAE prince plays MBS like a fiddle. UAE is also backing out of Yemen, having effectively met their objectives, leaving KSA with their no-win situation.

Iran is suffering from sanctions, but in a strange way, suffering is what they do best. Don't expect that to cause a regime change. Few suffer more than North Korean citizens, and they build bombs. Making people suffer almost never causes capitulation. 

The Jared plan was always going to be DOA, and KSA offering up half a trillion didn't help though it has strained the Saud's moral high ground, which was already doing the limbo. King Faisal is doing summersaults in his grave. The rest of the Arab world gave it the one-finger salute. Not sure there is a possible peace plan, but to ignore the residents was always unlikely to work.

We don't need to be in Europe to the level we are. We pull back, Russia won't fill the void, and more likely will cut back themselves with a semi-buffer in play. Poland, with their history, of course they want us, and they don't really want German soldiers for obvious reasons.
