I read he was in a coma a few days ago. I don't know if he still is or if that was a true rumor
I wonder if the Middle-East could ever become some kind of union or confederation with a Caliph as a figurehead and an organization similar to the EU, if the people manage to throw off their overlords everywhere. I know in the past a few countries, such as Egypt, Iraq and Syria, attempted to form a union. Perhaps it could be a possibility
I am a bit optimistic that the area is going toward a renaissance phase, unless if the radical Islamic movements take over.
That's why it's also important for the Syrian and Iranian regimes to fall , because those are the main forces in the area who 'feed' and 'guide' the radical islamic movements in the Mideast. Without them, the radicals will be fu****!
If Syrian Baath and Khamenei won't fall then they'll do whatever they can to strengthen their radical pawns in the Arab world. This can't be good at all.
Any union attempt of any kind, should be gradual (1-economical , 2-facilities, 3- a council...) in the EU sense , I have my fears regarding any form of union though. I grew up in this life during the Syrian era (occupation) in Lebanon hearing BS propagandas by the Syrian media about the "Arabhood" union between Syria and Lebanon, "Two countries, one people" and "One path and destiny" were the most famous and lamest slogans

..... while reality was more like "two people , one dictator".
Those past unities were more of dominances of one country over another smaller country. Syria itself was dominated by Egypt during their 'union'. Even the banking union between Syria and Lebanon in the past did more harm to Lebanon than good.
