Until recently you had alliances between the groups: Israel/Turkey, Egypt/SA/Jordan, and Syria/Iran. These have all broken down recently. Meanwhile the conflict between Russia and the West has accelerated and Yemen, Iraq, and Syria have all become open battlefronts.
Way too much hatred, all the makings of WWIII right in front of us.
