Security and Middle East analyst Yair Goldblatt assesses that Gulf states which supported efforts to topple Iran's regime and pushed for continued war are now being targeted by Tehran's retaliation, according to a post on his the source.
Security and Middle East analyst Yair Goldblatt published an assessment Monday morning arguing that Gulf states which supported the push to topple Iran's regime and pressed for continued war — including by urging the United States toward a decisive outcome — now face retaliation from Tehran. Goldblatt writes that the ayatollahs' regime remembers clearly who was for and who helped, and that the Iranian message to those states is: 'You will pay for this.' The post does not name specific Gulf countries or provide evidence of any concrete Iranian action. The assessment comes amid ongoing regional tensions following the escalation between Iran and Israel. As The Zioneer reported Sunday evening, Iran's Foreign Ministry warned that the US and Israel would bear responsibility for all consequences of the escalation. Goldblatt's analysis shifts the focus to Gulf actors, but remains an attributed opinion, not a confirmed development.
