The Trump administration is confronting mounting discontent from allies in the Persian Gulf who have complained they were not given adequate time to prepare for the torrent of Iranian drones and missiles bombarding their countries in retaliation for strikes launched by the U.S. and Israel.
Officials from two Gulf countries said their governments were disappointed in the way the U.S. has handled the war, particularly the initial attack on Iran last Saturday. They said their countries were not given advance notice of the U.S.-Israeli attack and complained the U.S. had ignored their warnings that the war would have devastating consequences for the entire region.
We’re gonna lose military bases over this, and likely never get them back
Bibi wants to go back to being our only option over there, and he’s clearly willing to make everyone else hate America to accomplish that.
Because Bibi wants to wipe them all out, and he can’t do that why they host US bases
We see a lot of hand-wringing from Democrats, it’ll at least be interesting to see if every government in the world is equally impotent in the face of catastrophe
Oh, we know.
We saw the planes falling out of the sky over Kuwait.
Clearly this was about as well-planned as any of Donald’s “business” ventures.
Well stop being allies then!
Relax, guy!
had ignored their warnings that the war would have devastating consequences for the entire region.
That’s… They point? Hit the wasps nest and loot the remains.
Well yeah because the United States doesn’t give a fuck about the GCC countries, half of them won’t exist after this war.
Hilarious that Gulf Arabs think they are equals to a Western imperial power rather than just privileged vassals.
Iran is giving them a cold dose of reality.
