@romin @lain Iran has nothing to offer UAE, and the USA does, that is why it is an alliance not protection money. They get something for it, not just "we won't obliterate you with missiles"

@sun @romin UAE is the largest trade partner with iran, so they do have a lot to offer to each other, but it is quite hard to stay neutral when your trading partner keeps sending shaheds on a one-way trip

@lain @romin I assume they can only do that because they’re plausibly not wahabbist
