"Prime Minister, the time has come for a meeting with US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. www.biquge.info"At the Israeli Prime Minister's Office, a secretary walked into the prime minister's office and said to Olmert, who was visibly distracted behind his desk.

"Oh? Is Ms. Rice rested? Olmert asked, looking back at the secretary.

"I think so, Prime Minister." The secretary hesitated to answer. After all, he is not the female secretary of state, and he doesn't know if he has a good rest, but he thinks that the other party is going to talk with the prime minister during this time period, and he must know his body mechanism very well.

Olmert didn't say much, he just asked casually, and didn't want the secretary to give a detailed answer.

The two went to the most luxurious meeting room in the Prime Minister's Office, where the Israeli Prime Minister's Office received important national leaders. Although the position of US secretary of state is not as good as that of the prime minister of a country, the post of secretary of state is not limited to the foreign minister, he is also the chief minister of the US political axe, and can also be in charge of some domestic affairs. Combined with some of the powers granted by the U.S. Constitution, the U.S. Secretary of State is second only to the president and vice president among U.S. political officials.

With the alliance between Israel and the United States, it is quite normal for Olmert to personally meet with the US Secretary of State.

The huge living room was waiting for Olmert and the secretary, and it seemed a little empty. If it is a normal formal meeting to receive foreign guests, there are definitely more than the two of them, but this meeting with the US Secretary of State seems to be urgent and important, and the fewer people who know about it, the better.

Less than five minutes later, there was the sound of light footsteps on the carpet with high heels. After the door was opened, a staff member of the Prime Minister's Office led a man and a woman into the meeting room.

Olmert stood up and smiled at the second female secretary of state in U.S. history.

"Lady Rice, you're still so pretty." That's what Prime Minister Olmert said in his first words. This is rarely seen in formal diplomatic settings, except in the form of unusual relationships. The relationship between Israel and the United States, although not yet close, is enough to maintain a close and good personal relationship between the top political leaders of the two countries from generation to generation.

"Thank you, the Prime Minister seems to be in a good mood, at least not burdened by those trivial matters." Secretary of State Rice smiled affectionately, showing her good-looking teeth. As a female politician, it is very important to know how to slow down the mood of the other person, whether with enemies or friends. As long as the other party is in a relaxed mood and the atmosphere is simpler, not so extreme, it will be easy to grasp the rhythm in the following conversation.

"Trivia? No, Ms. Rice, this is a serious matter, and it has seriously threatened the survival and security of our country, and even the political and economic system of global stability today. The smile on Olmert's face suddenly retracted, and he said very seriously, "It is not a simple regional surname incident, it is a global surname event related to global peace and stability, and the United States, as a major country in the world, should attach importance to it." ”

Olmert said 'this matter' several times very seriously, is it to make Rice understand the seriousness of the surname? No, as the US Secretary of State, Rice is not an ordinary woman, and she will not see the impact of this incident on the United States and even the world? Saying that the United States will lose control of the Middle East and thus losing the shortcut to obtaining oil resources, and that the key US global strategy will encounter a shocking threat, the chain reaction triggered by this will likely break the current global political and economic system dominated by the United States and the Western world.

Olmert made this matter serious, in order to show his attitude, a tough and uncompromising attitude. Let the American political axe see Israel's attitude in this matter.

Secretary of State Rice suddenly understood the seriousness of this matter, and her face became solemn 'coincidentally', listening to Prime Minister Olmert's analysis of this matter. And the assistant who came with her also lowered his head and wrote something in his notebook.

"It's a terrible thing, don't they know how much harm it will do to the world?" Ms. Rice said angrily.

"Yes, these countries are too ambitious. Completely unaware of how much of a threat nuclear weapons pose to the planet we live in, that's not a good thing. In particular, the officials of some countries are so bad that they do everything to embezzle, and as long as they have money, they can sell nuclear weapons to terrorists. This is the nightmare that worries me. Olmert pretended not to see Rice's pretentiousness, and once again expressed his anger at the development of nuclear weapons by some countries.

In this way, the top officials of two countries possessing nuclear weapons were harshly refuted and condemned against nuclear weapons in a luxurious meeting room. Fortunately, a few people were closed doors, and there were countless advanced monitoring and defense equipment and experienced and strictly trained guards outside, and they did not worry about being listened to. Anyway, these words will only stay in the air of the living room.

The face is not red and the heart is not beating to express the attitude, and the next thing is how to stop it. After all, nuclear weapons are too harmful to the world, and some countries are unable to protect them from being used by terrorists. Both Israel and the United States, as responsible powers, have an obligation to stop the nightmare before it happens.

"I spoke on the phone this morning with Ms. Angela Merkel, the rotating president of the European Union (German Chancellor), who expressed concern about the turmoil in the Middle East since last year, and that one of the core tasks of the EU this year is to maintain the EU's energy security." Olmert shifted gears and mentioned another thing.

Secretary of State Rice's eyes flickered, this is important news, I don't know if I have it at home, but she herself has not received this news from China.

The EU is concerned about the turmoil in the Middle East, for sure, because the region's oil resources are very important to most countries in the world. For major oil importers such as the European Union and the United States, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a lifeline and a blood supply machine. The development of industry is inseparable from oil, and military defense is inseparable from oil. Once turmoil develops into war in the Middle East, the world situation will be less turbulent.

However, Rice knows that the EU, as a European community, is not unified within itself, and it can even be said that there will be opposing contradictions within the EU on most issues. The relationship between the United States and the European Union is also very complex, as it is not only a competition and antagonism, but also a mutual use and complementarity. In the final analysis, when it comes to the fundamental interests of all countries, no matter what kind of historical origins and good relations they have, they are not worth mentioning. It is the interests of each country that are most important, and only when the fundamental interests of each country are not involved can they combine with each other and cooperate in certain fields or affairs.

Olmert's proposal of the European Union at this time is nothing more than creating an 'adversary' for the United States. The implicit purpose is to tell the United States that if the American political axe does not support Israel in this matter, Israel can draw the European Union into the Middle East after paying some price.

In the Middle East, European countries have much deeper influence than emerging countries such as the United States. After all, it was once the focus of European countries, one of the colonies. But with the end of the colonial era, the Middle East is at the heart of the Islamic world, and the remnants of the 'European factor' have been wiped out by the power of religion. Later, the United States was able to maintain a certain degree of superiority and control in the Middle East. On what basis? The first is Israel, a pawn that suppresses the Arab countries, and the second is a compromise based on the strong military power of the United States.

There is no question of which is more important between the two. This is because the strong military power of both Israel and the United States is very important for the United States to maintain a certain advantage in the Middle East, and even indispensable. Without Israel being like a nail in the Middle East and restraining other Arab countries, what price would it have to pay for the United States to infiltrate this land that is deeply hostile to the Western world with its military might alone?

Without the military power of the United States, it would be difficult for Israel to stir up much of a storm.

At this time, Olmert brought these tacit things to the table and put them almost in the spotlight, which is to tell the US political axe that Israel has a super-tough attitude towards nuclear weapons in the Middle East. There is absolutely no compromise on that.

"Prime Minister, you know, this is not a Syria, it is not an Iran. Rather, four countries. Four countries that may possess nuclear weapons. Secretary Rice rubbed her forehead, her tone weakened. She knows that in the face of Israel's resoluteness, the US political axe cannot sit idly by. Not to mention the Jewish plutocracy, which has some influence in the United States, as Olmert said, if the American political axe does not support Israel in this matter, Israel is very likely to completely introduce the power of the European Union into the Middle East.

Many of the EU countries are members of NATO, and although they are consistent with the United States in many international affairs, this does not mean that these countries are the 'obedient little brothers' of the United States, to be precise, the US political axe is very jealous of these 'obedient little brothers'. A good man still needs three gangs, once the needs of the younger brothers are not satisfied, there will be a different idea in their hearts, once the younger brothers make a fuss, as the 'boss', the American political axe will not be easy.

One of the ways in which the United States deals with EU countries is to adopt an attitude of co-opting and divisiveness. To win over is to win over a few major countries, and the US political axe will try its best to meet the needs of the interests of these countries. As for some countries with similar strength and insufficient potential, the US political axe will also take 'care' at the appropriate time. However, the US political axe must be extremely vigilant against those countries with potential. Even if, due to certain factors, the United States has no choice but to satisfy some of the interests and needs of such potential countries, the US political axe will quietly exert influence in other areas to make these potential countries lose some other things. Between gains and losses, at least it is necessary to ensure that such countries do not gain much more than they lose, so that they pose a threat to the United States.

The Iraq War, coupled with the war on terror in Afghanistan, has penetrated the United States into the Middle East and Central Asia. Almost all of the US political axe's global strategy over the past few years has devoted energy to this aspect. Even so, the control of the US political axe in the Middle East is still very weak, but it is almost enough for the United States to brand this land as the 'brand' of the United States. Once there is a loophole in the Middle East, other international forces will surely flock to it. Rice is almost certain that once Israel introduces EU forces into the Middle East, Russia, which has been ambushing pawns in the Middle East, and China and other countries that are making every effort to dig into the corners of the Middle East, will surely follow.

The Middle East, which was originally dominated by the United States and the Islamic Arab world, has become an international battlefield.
