Strange bedfellows but Iran presents a existential danger to all of their governments.

So who's side is the USA on? The Iranian hostage takers and their mob that chants "Death to America" at the Ayatollah's command?
I see the joining of the Arab states on the Yemen situation as a precursor to the joining of the Arab states on the Iran situation. There are a dozen states with plenty of money, resources, and no sanctions in that region that could work together to solve their common problem. Whether they will or not is a completely different beast. It took them way too long to get involved with ISIS, it is hard to imagine that they would do something meaningful against a state as powerful as Iran, but we shall see.
