Gulf States Urge U.S. to Hit Iran Hard

Gulf Arab states urge U.S. not to retreat from Iran conflict, seeking decisive military action against Irans military to secure regional oil shipping lanes. U.S. pushes for Gulf nations to join the fight alongside Israel, aiming to build regional support for more global and domestic backing. Irans attacks on Gulf states shift views from defense to seeing Iran as a direct enemy. Gulf leaders worry about leaving Iran with strong weapons, fearing it could hold the oil lifeline hostage during any tension. No Gulf country plans solo military moves, fearing retaliation and a bigger firestorm. The United Arab Emirates stressed restraint while defending its security, and sources confirm collective action is the only safe path. Experts highlight the tough spot: fight Iranian attacks now without jumping into a U.S.-led war they cant control. Iran’s grip on the Strait of Hormuz threatens long-term shipping, so Trump called for a broader coalition, including Asian powers like China that depend on Gulf energy.
