Saudi Arabia is not a joke though. It is weaker than Japan or South Korea, granted, but not irrelevant militarily.Israel is the only militarily powerful state attacking Iran.
The gulf countries are all jokes.
Anyway, that doesn't change my point which is China's option of pre-emptive strike to curb a US military buildup for war. An option that Iran did not have because we're not a nuclear state and we're not a permanent member of the UN Security Council.
