I know things are unfolding quickly, but I’ve seen reports of attacks on the Dubai and Kuwait airports. In both cases reports are attributing it to Iran doing it in response to the US/Isreali attacks, but none seem to say why?
So why is Iran targeting them and not the US or Israel? I’m having trouble making it make sense.
Kuwait is basically one giant US base.
They’re attacking US military bases in those countries which are being used as bases to bomb and kill their citizens.
Apparently Aldo hotels Americans are know to stay at or something.
Kuwait and UAE have US military bases. Iran doesn’t really have the ability to attack the US directly. Pretty sure they did also target Israel.

Iran is surrounded by targets/attackers:

Technically, they are not attacking Dubai or Kuwait per se, they are attacking US military bases located there. Which, of course, poses a risk for the environment.
When a US base shoots down an incoming missile, it is going to land somewhere. And this somewhere might be in normal civilian areas of the hosting country.
As others in this thread have said, they’re attacking US military bases. Problem is two-fold: missiles aren’t always 100% accurate due to malfunctions, poor design, or anti-guidance EW systems, also the bases are surrounded by ballistic missile defenses, which basically shoot missiles at incoming missiles. This means that there is a strong likelihood that nearby civilian areas will be hit.
The classic strategy of more missiles. Works every time and hurts no one.

The US and Israel infest many parts of the world, they’re not contained to North America
Israel isn’t contained to North America?
Technically the truth.
Only the mormons
The 13th tribe.
They broke out around 1900
They’re allies of the US. That’s the only reason, as they’re US/UK proxies.
My completely uneducated guess would be, to make it harder for the US to get equipment into the region.
I hope Iran bombs the crap out of isreal. Let them suffer the same level of destruction that Palestinians have suffered at their hands.
Dubai is, AFAIK, the middle east equivalent of las vegas. Certain “activities” (alcohol, gambling, etc) are less illegal than in many middle eastern countries and its a tourist trap.
Kuwait has a large US military presence.
This is not the reason. There are US bases in the UAE.
happy cake day!
