Other than Israel, Trump doesn't actually care about any of the other ME countries.

I don't think he really cares about Israel, other than he knows his base does and so he supports Israel because he needs their support. And I do think he cares about Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the UAE, and so on, in the sense that he's gotten a lot of money and nice gifts from those people over the years. Now that doesn't mean he cares about them in any emotional or sentimental sense, or that he wouldn't sell them out if he thought it was to his advantage, only that he cares about them in a greedy, self-interested "they are a good source of money" way.

One would think that human intelligence would have already reached the point where we know war is pointless and solves nothing....
 


1. US officials say there could be "room to negotiate" over returning frozen assets to Iran

2. "They call it reparations. Maybe we call it return of frozen money," the official said

3. US says any deal to end the war would need to include the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, address Iran's stockpile of highly enriched uranium, and also establish a long-term agreement on Iran's nuclear program, ballistic missiles and support for proxies in the region

4. Iranian demands include a ceasefire, guarantees that the war will not resume in the future, and compensation

We expect an eventful week ahead.

I remember a time when Iran did not possess a nuke, was under a multilateral agreement to never develop a nuke, and was not getting their girls elementary schools bombed nor bombing everyone around them.
 


Middlebury Institute of International Studies researchers concluded with moderate-to-high confidence that the suspect missile was likely launched from a U.S. Patriot battery located about 4 miles (7 km) to the southwest of the impacted neighborhood.

“… Both Bahrain and Washington have blamed an Iranian drone attack for the March 9 blast, which the Gulf kingdom said injured 32 people including children, some seriously.

Commenting on the day of the attack, U.S. Central Command said on X that an Iranian drone struck a residential neighbourhood in Bahrain.

In response to questions from Reuters, Bahrain on Saturday acknowledged for the first time that a Patriot missile was involved in the explosion over the Mahazza neighborhood on Sitra island, offshore from the capital Manama and also home to an oil refinery.

In the statement, a Bahraini government spokesperson said the missile successfully intercepted an Iranian drone mid-air, saving lives.

“The damage and injuries sustained were not a result of a direct impact to the ground of either the Patriot interceptor or the Iranian drone,” the spokesperson said.

Neither Bahrain or Washington has provided evidence that an Iranian drone was involved in the Mahazza incident.
The use of costly, advanced weaponry to defend against attacks by far cheaper drones has been a defining feature of the war.

The incident points to the risks and limitations of this strategy: The blast from the powerful Patriot, whether or not it intercepted a drone, contributed to widespread damage and casualties, while Bahrain’s air defenses were unable to prevent strikes that night on the nearby oil refinery, which declared force majeure hours later.…”
