The People

People believe that the god is merciful but they have mostly disregard the fact that there is a difference between god, human and even a dog (!) over this very characteristic. People need sinners to remove some other sinners they dislike to keep their own hands away from anything filthy and bloody. 
However, the system can provide anything they need to believe all they are pretending; to find themselves as liberal or even as someone religious without even challenging their faith in confronting with the real world. The system is everything that people want. Still they cannot believe that it is the reflection of their true will. 
 If people are to actually become partakers of power someday, they must be able to accept their responsibilities mentally and practically. Fortunately, people today are more aware than ever. Many taboos and stereotypes have been broken and technology has accelerated the intellectual and cultural evolution of society. Therefore, it is possible to gradually make people familiar and ready over realistic and pragmatic ways of dealing with current and upcoming threats. As a result, the system would be able to openly take the greatest steps toward its objectives.

Iran: Economic War

The Islamic Republic of Iran has formed its policies based on a warfare strategy so that every single issue could be addressed in this way including disputes with the Washington, Tel Aviv or even domestic concerns over human rights, environment, and educational system. This toxic perspective toward everything may endanger everyone in and out of this regime. The world community is seeking the removal of this strategy from the decision-making table of Tehran. 
In this regard, the nuclear deal was going to be an introduction and not even a chapter for the new story of the Middle East. But the Islamic Republic has demonstrated that it is not ready for playing its part in the new game of the region. 
Anyway, all roads lead to Rome but the Iranian government is just as unaware of the big picture as Iraq's Saddam was. However, what ruined Iraqi dictatorship was more than a decade of harsh sanctions and economic war against Baghdad. And it is exactly what should be launched and its continuity is ensured against Tehran. And there is no need to add that sanctions are only an old and sometimes even symbolic means of economic war; an all-out economic war is needed.

Israel-Palestine: Possible Peace

After decades, Israel and Saudi Arabia as the leading actors of the Middle East, both have indicated true will for governing peace over Israeli-Arab relations in the region. Still, reaching a steady peace between Israel and Palestine definitely requires semi-withdrawal by both parties from their unrealistic positions. However, the lack of common understanding among the involved parties could waste hours of dialogues and frustrate any plans. 
Above all plans and dealings, it must be considered that conservatism is not only the spirit of cultural and political structures of Arab nations but a symbolic criterion of power. Therefore, it is no surprise to find out that changes can only slowly take place in such societies. In sum, Arab states are not ready for great and rapid changes. So it must be figured out that the mere common interests would not lead to a dialogue with common understanding in respect to the mentioned issue. Keep this logic in mind, for making any progress in a traditional society, one should always have an "undo" option, otherwise, the fear of transition from the status quo would hold the society from moving forward.
Therefore, no new element is entered unless by taking the appearance of old and known ones; the change would not be made unless it is infiltrated. For instance, temporary dealings like de facto recognition of Israeli and Palestinian states by both sides can give the confidence to Arabs that changes will not necessarily steady or irreversible.
