The traditional islamic axis stretched from Iran down through the Arabian peninsula and north Africa, down to Libya. By this I not only implicate Islamic nations, as such, but anti-western, militant Islamic powers.
Libya recently shifted its idealogical stance to become neutral, at least, pro-western at best. That takes out the Southern limits of the old axis. Other african countries have also petered out, whilst countries in the North have started to realign along an East-West axis, stretching from Afghanistan and Pakistan in the East, to Jordan and Syria, the nearest neighbours of Israel.
US foreign policy has been a significant catalyst for these shifts, but it opens a corridor to the kings of the east (China) and the climactic conflict of the age - armageddon.
