Syria’s placement 2
Syria's placement 2
The population in Syria is approximately 80% Arabs, 10% Kurds and 10% others. In terms of religion, 87% are Muslims, 10% are Christians, 3% Druzes. Muslims are 74% Sunnis, 13% Alawites and other Shia Islam. Worldwide, Sunnis are 85% of Muslims and Shias are 15%. Shia Muslims are majority in Iran, Iraq and Azerbaijan. Significant percentages are also in Bahrain, Lebanon, Kuwait, Turkiye, Afghanistan, Pakistan.
Afghanistan, Syria, are among the poorest non SubSaharan countries. Palestinians are also poor. Palestine is not a country but an area inside Israel. These countries have a lot of work to do. Al Julani put it correctly. Turkiye should be the model for these and other Muslim countries. It is one of the richest Muslim countries. Of course there are much richer.
Qatar is among the richest in the world. Others like UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuweit, Bahrein are also richer than Turkiye. The difference is that Turkiye's economic level is not attributed to oil but to economic development. Turkiye also has the second largest economy among Muslim countries. It is almost as big as Indonesia's (4,33 trillion) which is the largest but has a population of 277 million, more than 3 times that of Turkiye.
Turkiye's economy is 1,75 times more than Egypt's, which is in third place and a little more than 2 times that of Saudi Arabia's which is in fourth place. Iran and Pakistan are a little below, in fifth and sixth place, in terms of the size of the economy. So Turkiye could play an important role in the two Muslim Groups and could be the model for many Muslim countries.
Turkiye's preferable Group was one that resembled Ottoman Empire. It included Balkans, Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and Northern Africa. It also included Central Asia - Azerbaijan. Although they have not stated that clearly, the had several times mentioned the areas that interest them. Also they have been trying to play an important role in the Muslim World. At the same time, they have been trying to become members in EU.
These are extremely contradictory. They have been playing all sides but this can not last for ever. There will be no EU but a Western European and an Eastern European Group. Turkiye could be in Eastern European Group 4 but their best option is in Group 8 because that is how they will have an important role in the Muslim world. There are only two small Muslim countries in the Balkans, Albania and Bosnia.
Region B2 of Eastern European Group 4 will consist of Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. These are all Muslim countries. Turkiye has been courting them but they were in Russian Empire, Soviet Union and currently are in Commonwealth of Independent States. They proved to be more loyal allies to Russia than Eastern European countries like Ukraine and Moldova.
For Israel, it is impossible to be in Groups 5 and 8. Participating in Eastern European Group 4 is not the only option but it is by far the best option. There are five options for Israel; a) in Eastern Europe's Group 4 b) in Western Europe's Group 3 c) in no Group d) US territory e) not exist. It is possible to be in Western European Group 3 but the distance is a major problem.
Also, accepting Israel in Group 3 will not be easy, since it is a Middle Eastern country. It is easier to be in Group 4 because Cyprus will be in it and Israel is not far from Cyprus. Actually Cyprus could be part of Greece. It is the only solution that both parts, Greek and Turkish could accept. Cyprus will be annexed to Greece and Northern Cyprus to Turkiye.
There is another problem with Israel's participation in Western European Group 3. Most likely, it will be divided in two Subgroups, a southern and a northern. Marseille or Lyon will be the capital of southern Subgroup and Copenhagen of northern Subgroup. So Israel really does not fit at all in any of these Groups. It will be an outcast and the distance will make the situation even worse.
It could fit though in Region A2 of Eastern European Group 4. That will not be easy. It will take sometime for actual participation but negotiations can start immediately and be part of the overall negotiations. Trump will have to convince Russia, not to oppose Israel's participation in Group 4. Obviously, he will have to give something in return.
AntiNWO's approach to resolve conflicts is "out of sight out of mind". AntiNWO placed Israel in Eastern European Group 4. Israel will be with Hellas (Greece), other Balkan countries and Hungary - Slovakia in Region A2 of Subgroup A. Hellas also has some problems with Turkiye. Although there are some Arab countries that have good relations with Israel, generally Israel is not in good terms with Arabs and Muslims.
So AntiNWO is taking Israel out of their way and vice versa. Turkiye and Iran will be in Group 8. All countries should focus on their group and their economic development. Also, there will be relations between Groups and between countries in different Groups. Countries should focus more on their Regions and Subgroups, if these exist in their Group. Turkiye and Iran should focus on their Group and forget about Israel.
These two countries have been the biggest supporters of Palestinians, more supportive than Arabs. The "out of sight out of mind" approach is a large part of the solution in Middle East but not the whole solution. If matters are viewed in this context, obstacles could be overcome. Palestinians could be given incentives to move to other countries, mainly in the two Muslim Groups. They could also migrate to Group 4, mainly in Muslim areas.
Some will remain and they should be separated from Jews. Currently they are in two Palestinian areas, Gaza and West Bank. It is preferable if they are gathered in one area. Gaza is next to Egypt and West Bank next to Jordan which although Arab, has not been very supportive of Palestinians. If Syria and Lebanon are in the same group with Palestinians' biggest supporters, Turkiye and Iran, Palestinians could be placed around the borders, between Israel and Lebanon - Syria.
There are a few options. There could be an independent state or an autonomous region within another state. The autonomous region could be in Syria - Lebanon or Israel. Obviously it is preferable if it is in Syria - Lebanon. One, two or all three countries could contribute territory. The details will have to be part of the overall negotiations.
