U.S. Aligns Key Partners Against Shared Threats in the Middle East

On 15 January 2021, days before the Biden inauguration, the Pentagon reported a change in the Unified Command Plan shifting Israel from U.S. European Command (EUCOM) to U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM). In announcing the new areas of responsibility, the Defense Department pointed to the recent Abraham Accords between Israel and various Arab states as "a strategic opportunity...to align key U.S. partners against shared threats in the Middle East."

IMO Joe Biden would like to task the Europeans for this conflict zone ... Afghanistan ... Iraq ... Taiwan ... although Israel-Lebanon-Syria falls under USCENTCOM and not USEUCOM.

Ceasefire now ... get humanitarian aid in and water, food, fuel and medical supplies. Stop the immoral slaughter of civilians.
