None of the Gulf Cooperation Council states has endorsed Iran’s missile attack on Israel and some of them have quietly suggested they fear Iran has invited the Israelis to throw a knockout punch at Tehran, potentially sending the oil industry into turmoil and inflaming Sunni-Shiite tensions across the Middle East.“We are not in pursuit of war with Israel. They promised us peace. But Israel has terrorized our guests in Tehran during our presidential inauguration. We want to establish peace.
Faisal was more conciliatory, saying the Saudi government wishes to “permanently close the chapter on our differences and focus on resolving issues, developing relations as two friendly and brotherly countries.” The Qatari government was more outspokenly critical of Israel than its GCC guests, adopting a tone closer to Pezeshkian than Faisal.
