Kerry Tries to Reassure Arab Allies --- U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Sunday tried to reassure America's Arab friends that the United States will not allow them to be attacked "from outside," in an apparent warning to Iran. -- He specifically mentioned Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Jordan and Egypt as nations, alongside unspecified "others," that the U.S. will defend. Those others likely would include Israel, the strongest U.S. ally in the region. -- "The United States will be there for the defense of our friends and our allies," Mr. Kerry said in Cairo. "We will not allow those countries to be attacked from outside. We will stand with them." - More, WSJ
