  • The GCC rhetoric on Israel masks its true aims to decouple Syria's Assad and the Islamic Republic and declaw Hezbollah in Lebanon

The article from MSN discusses the complex dynamics between Gulf countries, Iran, and Israel, highlighting a perceived hypocrisy in the foreign policies of Gulf states. It points out that while Gulf countries publicly criticize Iran for its regional interference and support for proxy militias, they engage in similar activities themselves. The piece notes that Gulf states, particularly Saudi Arabia and the UAE, have been accused of supporting various factions in conflicts like Yemen and Libya, much like Iran's support for Hezbollah and other groups. Furthermore, despite their public stance against Israel due to the Palestinian issue, there's an increasing trend of normalization and cooperation with Israel, especially in areas like security and technology, driven by mutual concerns over Iran. This behavior suggests a pragmatic approach where strategic interests often override ideological or public stances, leading to a situation where Gulf countries "talk like Iran but act like Israel."
