we are seeing now the reverberations of strategic throughout the middle east, in syria, iraq, lebanon. what saudi arabia is trying to do, george, is to counterbalance the spread of iranian influence in the region. saudi arabia has become more muscular. it has become more active. it's leading from the front as opposed from the behind. whether you're talking about lebanon or iraq or yemen. my take on it is the next few months are going to be extremely dangerous through the region because the geo strategic rival are intensifying and what has happened in lebanon in the past 48 hours tells me that we are going to see more tensions, not only in syria and iraq, but even in lebanon and other places as well. i mean, i think the end of isis, the so-called islamic state does not really mean the end of geo strategic struggles. on the contrary the dismantling of the so-called caliphate will intensify the struggles between the pro iran camp and led by iran, syria, lebanon and saudi arabia and allies in the region including the united states. >> a conversation i had with him the past hour. still ahe
