@_Arabia_ So I am thread banned from that US Perspective thread because of a petty TTA and poor moderation of PDF which is plaguing the forum, I have to respond to you here.
@Starlord
You are a writing quite a bit of nonsense with all due respect.
Nothing in the GCC of worth has been destroyed nor is it going to be destroyed by a few useless drones and largely firecrackers (ballistic missiles). What has been disrupted in places like the UAE is tourism. As well as the disruption of the Strait of Hormuz but that, in the case of KSA, has been solved by the West-East pipeline (KSA is now exporting 7 million barrels of oil daily)
Flotillas of tankers have been redirected to the Red Sea port of Yanbu to collect the oil, providing an important lifeline for global supply.

Oman and UAE has access to the Gulf of Oman and Arabian Sea directly so they are less impacted.
The main losers are Kuwait and Qatar but KSA is helping them a lot by transporting their oil and gas through KSA territory. GCC has served as a land bridge for all the smaller GCC states in every sphere. KSA could earn a fortune on this but is doing it for free.
Making a fortune. 2-3 times more money than previously.
You still do not understand that the destruction/removal/severe weakening of the Iranian regime and all its regional proxies plays right into the hands of KSA and the wider GCC? Those are our biggest adversaries and enemies as well.
Unlike other stupid regional leadership (speaking about stupid leadership), such as the Iranian regime and their terrorist proxies, we are not stupid enough to wage a war against a nuclear armed state (Israel) that is 24/7 protected and supported by the world's superpower (USA). The same Israel which has 20% Arab Muslim population, 2/3 of their Israeli Jews being Arab Jews and an entity that is unlikely to go anywhere anytime soon. Therefore the solution (short-term at least) is a diplomatic solution.
If our leadership were retarded they would have turned our country, wealth, people into a failed entity like Iran. Or the other failed entities in the region of the past that were destroyed completely due to stupid leadership. And what have they to show for? Nothing. Did they defeat Israel? No, Israel is stronger than ever before.
Let us look at the ground realities. Genocide in Gaza with most of Hamas destroyed and large portions of Gaza annexed/under Israeli control. Continued Israeli illegal settlements in the West Bank with no stop/end in sight. Hezbollah severely degraded and most of their previous leadership annihilated. Houthis weakened and no longer a regional factor. They waited 4 weeks before they launched 2-3 missiles at Israel. PMF in Iraq degraded as well with the Iraqi government at an internal war of power with that faction within Iraq. Iran carpet bombed and severely weakened. Much of their leadership annihilated.
Do you see which direction things are moving into?
And let us be perfectly clear so everyone gets this simple fact once and for all. KSA is not the GCC and KSA is a special country that hosts Makkah and Madinah. There are severely different dynamics at play here that I do not need to write much about in great detail because it is self-evident.
============================================================
You said nothing of Significant is damage, I mean really? Qatar/Dubai/Kuwait and Bahrain got hit hard, and like I told you in some other thread... Iran is not attacking KSA and other GCC civilian infrastructure mostly, their prime targets are US military bases which are used to attack them, any country with Honor will do that including Pakistan if Afghanistan has Indian bases and they are launching fighter jets, or Rocket attacks on Pakistan, I do get that honor and Dignity is something is in short limit in GCC but you don't have be that delusional.
You say that KSA/GCC consider the Iranian regime as "Enemy" and its good so you are literally saying that what everyone is talking that GCC is helping Israel against Iran, and you blame Iranians for not trusting you and creating proxies to counter your schemes against them? And if the Iranian regime was always your enemies so why even bother to normalize ties with Iran when MBS and other GCC high officials meeting Iranian leaders and break the ice? Does that mean that Arabs have been backstabbing Iranians all this time? it only gets worse when you are posting about the conflict.
Well you are not smart when you say that you won't fight a nuclear Armed state (Israel) protected by America, reality is that you just buy yourself out of situation, Kuwait gets invaded, your leaders were scared so they bring American troops to protect your cities and resources, its not bravery that was shown or smartness its just you give America/Israel what they want, and in return they protect you but only until Israel bombs you, as we see they did in Doha.
And can you please stop bringing that whole Arab % in every posts, you use Arab population when it suits you, yeah Israel has Arab population, and you are presenting them as "Your" people but you let Millions of Iraqi's die, thousands of Palestinians die and Genocide that whole world witness, while other European countries has done more to protest against massacre of "Your" people than your nations with all their might. Sometimes you are presenting Arabs/GCC has some powerhouse which can take on enemy but other times you admitting that GCC/ME is helpless against Israel, so why even argue with people when they say that Entire GCC is practically under Israel's control and your leaders are compromised cucks.
On a side note, as bad as Iranian regime is Iranian Muslims are still Muslims, and the Rasool you so happen to claim would've never sided with enemy against his own people, its not just about the Arabs hate is due to proxies which by the way Arabs have their own proxies in middle east and other regions, so stop pretending that you guys are all innocent as a Hoor from Heaven.
I mean you are calling Iran for being weak when the country has been under sanctions for over 3 decades? and still manage to create a decent defense/Attack capabilities, while your countries are relying on Americans to protect you, that's even more embarrassing for you not Iran. And of course Iran will face the burn because they are standing in isolation because GCC Arabs has back stab them, rather than fixing the issues with diplomacy your leaders scheme against the Iranians and you sacrifice 80-100k Palestinians just so you can get rid of the Iranian regime, wow and if that is what a common Arab thinks than I will say that Arabs of GCC are even bigger scum than Israeli's.
As for Israel been stronger, yes Genius and why is that? its because they have no competition in region, cause your entire region/GCC has been cucked, they convinced America to take out Iraq, Syria is done, Libya is gone, Egypt is practically non-existent or no threat to Entity, KSA well useless, Qatar/UAE/Kuwait/Bahrain none of them have manpower or Air power to challenge Israel, in fact those countries are at the mercy of America. So yeah they (Israel) will get stronger of course, Israel would've not been this bold if Arabs grow a pair and stand up to them, use the leverage they have to stop capture of West Bank or massacre of Gaza, yeah today Gaza is in Ruins, now for many they will blame Hamas, and according Falcon Hamas is not a Iranian proxy so why the Arabs have forsake them? You are presenting your weakness as some sort of genius move by your leaders which is often done by India who live in their own delusional world.
You are right, Gaza bombed into bits, Hezbullah weakened, and Iran will take 1-2 decades to full recover only if America lift sanctions. Now with the entire Axis gone who will stop Israel into fully annex the Palestinian territories? or have your leaders made a deal behind curtains to give up Palestinians, and if so why keep bringing the Arab identity ? you sold your own kin for shinny cities which Israel will eventually bomb anyway, and there won't be anyone to stop them, in fact if Arabs were any smart they would've kept the Iranian's alive and powerful enough that Israel/America can remain engage with them for foreseeable future, but if Israel come on top in this conflict what do you think they will do next? Expand their territory Genius, which they already started.. in Lebanon/Syria and now the so called collective Arab pride and people you will throw under the bus and say, well they didn't take KSA's territory now didn't they? one by one countries surrounding them are destroyed to a point that these countries are ghost of their former selves, you think Israel will allow a Sunni Axis to take shape? if Israel act against any axis or alliance which they deemed as threat to them, than how long before they declare you and other GCC countries as Threats and bombing start?
Yes I can see where things are headed, in fact many can but thick Skull Arabs can't.. Like i said, the difference between Arabs/Jews is that Jews are rich & smart, while Arabs are only Rich.
KSA is not unique dude, you need to understand that... if you are so scared of America/Israel and if tomorrow they decided to bomb you or even Mecca (Audubillah) than who will stop them? your leaders who are busy kissing Trumps a$$ (his words). or who will fight them? from the military bases and AC fleets that docked in your ports which will be used against you when time comes? I really really hope that Arab leaders are not as delulu as you are here and try so hard to hold on to something to show that your leadership are not totally dumb. As for this war, we will see what and how the region changes once the dust settle but one thing for sure this war has expose that Arab leaders and their population has just surrendered the entire region to Israel/America without even a fight.
