Precisely. Hopefully. What is the deal with UAE?

It's kind of an artificial state from what I understand. They have a one dimensional economy and they're just propped up by US and Israel as a staging area against Iran and an oil extraction facility. UAE, Bahrain, and Qatar seem like most likely to disintegrate as a result of the war.

Lol. Talk about (me) not seeing the forest for the trees! 😂 😭 Owa tagoo Siam.

Thanks for shedding light on the obvious for me.
