This is the start of a huge rift between the US and every single vassal state in the Middle East except for Israel.

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
A year? More like a month!
Let’s see European countries get directly bombed because America dragged them into a war and see if they put the leash back on that fast…
My vote is we start with Britain.
let's see how stiff that upper lip really is
one can hope but i think most of them will crawl back, just like the EU
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.
would be funny if all these gulf monarchies have republican revolutions when they were trying to have a monarchist revolution in Iran.
Just like Israel wanted.

Consolation price for the Saudis
This really got me lol
So the u.s. literally can't even protect multiple locations in a region huh man i wouldn't be starting a war in that case
Can't or won't? Feels a lot more like won't
Can't and won't
When i see headlines that make it sound like the U.S. has "weeks" worth of munitions it has me really thinking "can't"
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
To be America’s ally is deadly
fell for it again lmao gottem
Is there an equivalent of “no shit” in Farsi? Because that
lol lmao
Get rekt slaver!
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
Israel and the OS
The OS soldier
Everything makes sense now
Hold on. Rebooting 17 times in a row for the latest update....
Microslop
Should have seen it coming
Skill issues
And so they will beg the US to save them instead of realising the US don't give a shit about them
Why are they broadcasting this? Do they want to get bombed?
"Good people of Saudi Arabia, cast off your chains and take back your country from the evil regime which oppresses you. Now is the window of opportunity."
no shit sherlock
I need a website not a twitter post!
