MADDOG69: The entire Gulf Region is allied to the US with notable exceptions, Iran, Syria and Lebanon. Although recently Egypt has shift away.
As for your resettlement proposal, I propose Sicily. A climate those people would be more suited to. Though England could be used as a reserve, or overflow.
The entire gulf region is more like a "relationship of convenience" for the United States on an as-needed basis...... Take Turkey where the U.S. has beefed up there defenses against Syria and United Arab Emirates and Qatar buy billions of U.S. military stuff while allowing U.S. naval vessels to dock there etc.
I don't care what they do with Sicily except Palermo; where my paternal family is from.

Palermo? OH.... that's to be called New Mecca. Only Halal Pizza allowed though. And no more Campari!
chris27292729: What about the reverse????Would be much better for the USA to have all the Arab countries allies and abandon Israel!!!.
It used to be more like that with Russia backing Israel in a small way ,till everybody switched sides and toughened up . USofA stepping back from Israel would be like giving the green light to Israel to stop the Iranians building nukes .Meanwhile the Iranians have stopped talks over their nuke program .
