Why is that odd? Many of these people are tribal and see anyone that’s not in their tribe as enemies.

Yep. You just made my point. So you would think ISIS and these other groups would be joining Hamas and fighting the Israelis.

Seems suspicious...

Many of these people are irrational. They also have grudges that probably span a few thousand years. Life would be much easier if everything were black and white.

You're smarter than this. ISIS and these spinoff groups terrorize the hell out of China, Iran, Russia and Syria, but Israel, the Saudis and other Gulf States rarely ever get terror attacks from them.

Again, this is all explained by tribal allegiance and the brand of Islam as well as reprisals that often go back generations. The ayatollahs have enemies. China has been brutalizing it's ethnic Muslims for decades. So has Russia. Why wouldn't they be targets?

We are being targeted in the ME as well....... So there goes your theory.

I haven't found any recent reports, latest was 2021, but considering these reports are all dated several years after the incidents, its probably they just haven't been finished or published yet. ISIS has attacked the Sauds, and I am guessing the others, just because YOU don't read about it on Zero Hedge doesn't mean it didn't happen.



2015-2018 ISIS was averaging 8 10+ death incidents in Saudi Arabia a year. Sounds like Saudi Arabia stepped up the counter ISIS movement. And now the Houthis are the hot brand of terrorism against the Sauds and the Israelis. so I am guessing most of the terrorism has rebranded itself to the current largest threat.

Willing to bet all the other states have similar stories.

and Israel was getting attacked by Hamas pretty regularly even before 10/7. it makes sense for different groups to band together under a single flag, Hamas, ISIS, Houthi, when fighting a single enemy in a particular area. The Houthi attacks on shipping are ostensibly anti-Israeli, so claiming Israel is ignored is flat out wrong.

Israel intentionally bombed a foreign diplomatic compound. Hard to feel sorry for them if Iran counterattacks them successfully.

US has no business getting involved unless Iran attacks US troops instead of Israel.

We don’t need to be involved in any of this stupidity.

Well! Trump has 43 places he said when he was president that he would bomb Iran. If there was any US soldiers killed, he would send Iran back to the Stone Age.
