    Let's hope so. Regardless seems like a smart move to attack there. Apart from hurting these bootlicker's interests and reputations, and making the US look unreliable and uncaring, it's also apparently really easy.

    making the US look unreliable and uncaring

    Every time I wonder how Middle Eastern countries actually think America's on their side, I'm reminded of Europe putting their leashes back on less than a year after Trump was talking about taking Greenland

    We'll see, the monarchies in power couldn't care less about their citizens getting whacked in these attacks, it is in the people's hands to exert pressure on the monarchs.

    Trump assuaged those fears by commenting "we have a lot of ammunition, we have so much ammunition, really, we have it stored in stockpiles all over the world" or something to that effect

    Honestly surprised iran didn't blow up all those saudi and emirati oil rigs. They'll blow up from a stiff breeze and it would be hard to defend them all even if you gave a rat's ass about doing so.

    Saudi Arabia folded like a cheap chair the moment Yemen targeted their oil (fields? refineries?); they shouldn't try pushing their luck with a much more capable threat

    Iran should just ignore Israel and the OS and just concentrate on the Saudi’s and beat up their band of amateurs

    And so they will beg the US to save them instead of realising the US don't give a shit about them
