[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I study Saudi Arabia.

MBS did not ask for the US to bomb Iran. You are basing this Israeli talking point on one piece in the right-leaning, Bezos-owned Washington Post.

Don’t be naive and use some common sense. Nobody would ask to bring this upon themselves. They are in the direct line of fire. [/quote]

Lindsey graham went to Saudi Arabia two weeks ago and met with MBS. Apparently to convince him to support and advocate for the war. MBS said no.

Lindsey went back and told Trump that MBS was on board. Trump told others who then told Wapo.

Not sure if this is all true. But MBS is pissed. So maybe. I wouldn’t put it past Lindsey to lie about this.[/quote]

Surely you realize politicians/leaders are apt to say one thing in private and then another thing publicly, right?

“By all means, please deal with Iran. We are tired of their antics.” (Privately to a coalition that likely had notice that the attack would occur)

“I am outraged! Of course I would never support such a thing!” (Public spin)

I mean, that’s just politics…especially when it comes to the ME.

Sure, that happens.

This could certainly get better and turn out to be better for Saudi Arabia in the long run. Or it could get much, much worse. It's chaos right now.

So, no, I don't think MBS wanted this, as the PP who has studied Saudi Arabia said above. [/quote]

Sigh.

If you think the US and Israel haphazardly attacked Iran without a courtesy heads up and some level of support/greenlight from allies/potential retaliators in the region then bless your heart.

Not haphazardly…deliberately.[/quote]

Deliberately and strategically with intel and support from the regional players who matter.
