Ignoring the Israel/Kushner side of all this, the fact that all the Gulf states are friends now puts an immense counterweight against Iran such that we don't have to do all the heavy lifting ourselves there. Even the US benefits from having allies.

yea... an imaginary counterweight.

Go put 3 different kinds of Arabs in a room for 10 minutes. Someone is getting in a fight.

also... what heavy lifting? Define what you mean by that.

In normal civilian life, sure, I agree.

In military matters, the Gulf Cooperation Council is already breaking down those traditional dividing lines.

And by heavy lifting, I mean a military counterweight to Iran. We don't need to leave 2 carriers parked in the Gulf at all times, nor significant boots on the ground, if we can rely on the GCC to mitigate any Iranian aggression. The Saudis were doing a middling job of that by themselves...one could argue a poor job if you look at Yemen. But now they have significant help.

lol.

Nice narrative kike lol.

When do we anticipate Saudi victory in Yemen kike? It's interesting that the Saudi's can't even project power in their own peninsula.
