Basim sent me this: "Israel "can no longer count on the
friendship of leaders who were toppled by Arab Spring revolts and it should also
not bet on others against their people," he said, in a possible reference to
Syria, as some in Israel voiced fear that a regime change in Damascus could be
worse for the security of Israel. If it does, Israel "will definitely find itself within a short period
without any friends at all," he said."

My comment (Basim's that is):
Except the GCC countries, he later added."
