Tehran has warned several US allies in the Middle East, including Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, not to assist Israel in any potential attack on Iran, according to unnamed Arab officials cited by the Wall Street Journal.
The warning, reportedly issued through “secret diplomatic channels,” was a response to Israeli threats of a severe reprisal after Iran fired about 180 ballistic missiles at Israel earlier this month.
Israeli officials have been advocating for devastating retaliatory strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities and oil infrastructure, while the US is trying to keep the response limited and avoid a broader war that could spill across the region.
The escalating conflict between Israel and Iran has raised concerns among energy-rich Persian Gulf states about the safety of their own oil facilities. US military installations and forces in the region could also be at risk due to potential miscalculations or escalations, which could lead to unintended consequences, according to the WSJ.
Officials from multiple countries that host US troops told the WSJ that their states have made the administration of President Joe Biden aware they do not want their military infrastructure or airspace used for any offensive operations against Iran. In a separate report on Thursday, Reuters cited three sources as stating that Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE all told Washington they will not allow Israeli jets to use their airspace for an attack.
US defense officials acknowledged that some regional partners have expressed their concerns to the Pentagon, but these requests “remain informal,” according to the WSJ.
Iran is fully prepared to defend itself and retaliate against any potential attack by Israel, a source in Tehran familiar with the matter told RT on Thursday, adding that the response would be “proportionate” and based on domestic and international norms.
Should Israel target Iran’s oil infrastructure, Tehran will respond by striking oil refineries in that country, the source explained. Attacks on other infrastructure, such as power plants or nuclear facilities, will likewise prompt retaliatory strikes on corresponding installations in Israel.
Iran claims to have targeted only military facilities, with no Israeli civilian casualties reported as a result of its massive ballistic missile attack on Israel on October 1. The only reported casualty was a Palestinian man who was allegedly crushed by missile debris.
Tehran warned West Jerusalem against taking any disproportionate retaliatory steps. However, should a potential Israeli attack harm civilians, Tehran will be prompted to revise its nuclear doctrine, the source told RT, without elaborating.
ack home here in the USA the general feel of the public is that
” israel had it coming”
no one i know supports israel 9 11 the USS liberty the kennedy assasinatons have left many hating israel
Looks to me like it will be the kikes who will be thrown out of the middle east for good.
Wise men have said if everyone cut and washed their hair on the same day
it would eliminate all head lice
In China some years ago they had a national kill a fly day
apparently it drastically reduced the numbers
Why dont we in the UK have a national kill a jew day ?
think of the crimes it would stop.
or even a kill a numptie day ?
professional arsoles like Starmer Blair Nutenyahu Tommy Robinson
and even Carl Jones could be nicely done away with
It’s nice to hear Iran will hit its nuclear facilities near Dimona, and sites where nukes are supposedly stored.
It hasn’t been a secret, because the US needs an off ramp, because of Russian kit in Iran and the high probability that Russian nukes and technicians are in Iran operating defense systems and nukes.
This doesn’t mean the Nazi Uni-Party won’t stop war mongering, just as there’s only a pause on deep strike missiles hitting Russia.
What is hard to gauge, is this just a period of calculation, like a Chess clock ticking down, or is this all hanging on the US election?
Iran has to take out some israeli leading figures
as retaliation for its many leader losses + hezbollah
losses by IDF and Mossad !
the coward jewleaders hiding in bunkers . why not
shoot down the airplane when Satanjahu or Gallant
fly to USA ?

The man died by the falling first stage booster of a missile was in Jordan. There is evidence even in words of the Zionist officials that they actually lost hundreds of soldiers in the second Iranian missile attack (operation True Promise 2). Even US admitted that finally ~150 light brain damages and concussions : ) happened in Iran’s attack on US base AinAlAssad. A falling debris kills a random guy in Jordan, there is absolutely no way these missile strikes killed or injured no one! It is a joke! They are not even revealing their equipment and asset loss!
Zion has not directly attacked Iranian civilians and so Iran too only attacks military and intelligence targets. Hezbollah though does not mind if Jewish “civilians” are killed by its rocket and missile attacks on Zionist cities.
The war is much larger than you think, eventually US/NATO and some Zionist Muslim armies will invade Syria and move towards Iraq. What you see is the building up for that climax. 90% of the war is in hearts and minds.
