Bio

Iran, Turkey, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia have increasingly converged around a regional narrative portraying Israel as the principal source of instability in the Middle East, despite substantial ideological, strategic, and institutional divisions among them. Shared narratives allow competing states to assign responsibility for instability, pursue leadership claims, shape diplomatic agendas, mobilize political constituencies, and strengthen their positions within a regional order characterized by shifting alignments and persistent competition.
