Dumb question but why doesnt the gulfstates join in on attacking Iran?
Asking cuz they’re being attacked
Why don't they offer to pick a fight with a country on their doorstep with ICBMs and drone packages? Because their fragile nations could be crippled if anyone targeted a few refineries and desalination plants.
We're talking about countries that couldn't even beat the Houthis. Countries that could never field militaries that Iran has. Countries with populations who are already squeamish about their political ties to Israel.
And Iran has targeted US presence on its boarder. They aren't bombing civilians. That would be the Israel and US
None of the gulf states want war on their land. Saudi Arabia (through MbS) encouraged the US/Israel to attack Iran, but even they didn’t expect retaliation strikes in Riyadh.
The expectation from UAE/Qatar/Kuwait/Bahrain was basically that the US would have their back and that hasn’t really happened.
Below tweet is in Arabic but I recommend translating in app. It’s from one of the more influential Emirati billionaires with ties to the royal family. Short summary is “we’ve invested trillions of dollars into Trump and American interests, why the f*** have you dragged us into a US/Israel/Iran war”

I mean I get that it's not in their interest, but they seem to be losing out a lot on this. And even tho it's American infrastructure that's being attacked, it's still in their country.
I'm glad they aint tho, I'm still hoping the war ends because my people in lebanon are suffering.

Former french colony, plus some people from Lebanon wants it to be a colony again.
I hate that these b******s act like the war just started. The bombing never stopped.
There are so many people in the diaspora cheering on air strikes, not knowing how much damage they cause
C***really said there’s gonna be some deaths at war it’s what we expect
The honkees hear that and are like f*** it yeah America 🇺🇸
US govt allowed its private sector to outsource their industry to a communist nation they were at war with 20 years prior
What did they expect when the cycle would circle around once again
