Yes, and born out of that were 2 Germanies. East and West who joined in 1990 and some wanted it to be called ... Prussia. This former Prussia is now the fourth largest by nominal GDP in the world !
So no Prussia on the map then I take it?
The Egyptian Islamists vowed to keep the peace accord with Israel. Israel is strengthening it's ties with Ethiopia which is building a huge dam on the Nile that will decrease water volume through Sudan and Egypt. If Egypt starts to become more fundamentalistic it's income from tourism will fall dramatically and the $ from the US will dry up. They will be in trouble within the shortest period of time.
Turkey (Erdogan) dreams of the lost powers of the Ottoman Empire. If they attack Israel that would be the end of Turkish Nato membership. That will also make them vulnerable to pressure from their longtime enemy Russian.
Erdogan is to smart to do such foolish things. Fanatical Islamists do foolish things, none of their countries lives in prosperity.
Well then if Israel has Ethiopian support then its all over for the Palestinians, Ethiopia that great power house of Africa.
Egypt only requires US$ as long as UD$ have a value greater than say the Chinese$, now here is the interesting thing the US is nearing bankrupcy (along with the rest of the western world) the only thing the US government has come up with is a group to look into ways of reducing deficit growth not the deficit itself so at some point in the future how hard will it be when given the choice of supporting the side that takes billions in aid or the side that costs us nothing will it be to simply say sorry cant help.
As for Turkey well I suggest you should read more about the Syrian crisis because if you look close you will see that Turkey is the only country in the immediate area capable of supporting and enforcing any UN/Arab League sanctions.
You underestimate the economic power of the USA. If they tax their people like European countries do they are out of debt within a couple of years. The US has also huge corporate assets. Take a close look at Japan and you will understand what I am saying.
Haha and it is easy to tell you dont know America because if they taxed their people like European countries do they would they would be in revolution within a week.
