  1. ‘The enemy of my enemy is my friend’ creates some weird interactions in the middle east.

    Safe to say that KSA is also a member of MEAD? Not much is known about all participating members

  4. Nobody wants a regional war except Iran. They’re under the impression they’re going to win.
    That would be true if the USA wasn’t around.

  5. This would be a huge ‘F you’ to Iran if Saudi Arabia and Israel normalize ties amidst all the Iranian and proxy attacks.

    Indonesia announced just that last week.

  6. Saudi Arabia has been aligned with the US for a while now, it seems that recently they’re starting to get on board with the fact that they and Israel (also a US ally) are kind of on the same team and both can benefit from working together a bit. Some theories on the Hamas attack were that Iran didn’t want Saudi Arabia to normalize relations with Israel because it would be good for Saudi Arabia/Israel and therefore bad for Iran.

    I hope this path continues, could really help stabilize the region long term.

  7. He’d need to lick my toe nail before I could ever acknowledge anything coming from this guy as genuine or good.

    He’s a cold blooded criminal.

  8. The Arab monarchies will always side those that are fighting with the forces that want to topple them.

    Case in point: Yemen. During the North Yemen Civil War, the arab monarchies supported the Shia theocratic monarchy while Nasser’s Egypt support the Republicans. Then you had the Yemeni Civil War between the Republicans and th Communists, where the Arab monarchies now sided with the Republicans bcz the communists were a bigger threat to them.

  9. The 20th century Arab leaders are spinning in their graves watching Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Egypt defend Israel

  10. So… I assume KSA would have preferred to stay out but, they really have no other sensible choice.

    Houthis bomb Saudi Arabia too. What are they gonna do, give their enemy open access to their airspace because this one is (probably) headed to Israel? Similar-ish logic for Iran launched missiles.

    If Canada started shooting drones/missiles at Mexico… the US wouldn’t just let them casually fly over.

  11. Haha, Iran. Jokes on you. Oct attack is a total back fire at the expense of Palestinians.

  12. Summary:

    While Jordan had openly disclosed its [role in the defensive maneuver,](https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/middle-east/the-gulf/artc-uae-saudi-arabia-privately-shared-intelligence-with-u-s-on-iranian-attack-report) Saudi Arabia’s acknowledgment came in the form of a summary on its official website, citing insights from a source within the Saudi royal family. The post subtly hinted at Saudi Arabia’s involvement in intercepting suspicious entities in its airspace, highlighting the kingdom’s proactive stance in safeguarding regional stability.

    The report on the royal family’s website quoted an official condemning Iran’s aggressive actions and attributing them to the regime’s support for terrorism. The official underscored the urgency of curbing Iran’s destabilizing influence, emphasizing the need for global action against Tehran’s belligerent activities.

    The revelation of Saudi Arabia’s assistance in defending Israel comes amidst a backdrop of escalating tensions in the region and intensified diplomatic efforts to counter Iranian aggression. 

  14. They want just enough stability to not effect their wealth.

    My 2 cents.

  15. I think every power in the area wants the opportunity to intercept these projectiles because it allows them to test their defensive systems and their confidence levels. Plus MBS has always aligned more with the west. It’s a big loss for Iran because it has showed their attacks can be deterred so effectively

  16. Its because to Saudia Arabia, Iran ia something worse than an enemy. They are a rival.

  18. Got to say that the fact that Arab states participated in this defense – even for claiming that it was in defense of their airspace – just makes this look like a massive blunder for Iran.

  19. Huge public announcement from SA, gonna be interesting to see how the rest of the ME is going to react.

  20. ‘shocked Pikachu face’

    Is this about supplying the Houthis to bomb their oil fields? Or threatening to invade to secure Mecca and Medina?

    Naaahhhh

  21. I don’t trust this at all… considering Saudi Arabias track record

  25. Not siding with Israel will gain Iran much more prestige. A Shia sect + points on world stage. A thought that Sunnis can’t gladly received.

  26. Let’s fucking go it’s not classified anymore and I can take proud of them and show them my appreciation in public!

  27. Crazy times when Saudi Arabia and Jordan are busy defending Israel from Iran

    Meanwhile here in America a disturbing amount of liberals have become Palestinian nationalists overnight

  28. This should make it very clear that none of the Arab states give a fuck about Gaza. Everyone unironically thinking Israel was going to be significantly hampered diplomatically long term because of it is delusional.

  29. I was always wondering, why Saudi Arabia would not just drop the “religious fanatic” attitude.
    It costs so much, since the general public isnt on the hardliners side and all the foreign relations Saudi Arabia could possibly want are eighter relaxed islamic states or straigth up christian/jewish/atheist states, while people like Bin Laden are actually some of the biggest threats to the Saudi Regime.

  31. Saudi Arabia and Iran been fighting a proxy war in Yemen. I can see them normalizing relations with Israel once Hamas is out of power in Gaza.

  33. Now they’ve ruined there relationship with Iran! /S

  34. Saudi’s dutifully informed the Bakersfield City Council in advance
