US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee urged Gulf Arab nations to “choose a side” between Israel and Iran, stating that the conflict has highlighted the advantages of establishing relations with the former.
“Choose a side.” “Which side will you choose?” he remarked on Tuesday during a conference in Tel Aviv.
Gulf states have come to realize that they need to make a decision. Is it more probable that they will be assaulted by Iran or by Israel? I believe they can observe and acknowledge: Israel assisted us. “Iran launched an attack on us.”

“The takeaway is that Israel isn’t your inherent adversary.” Israel does not intend to annihilate you. He stated, “Israel is not attempting to seize your territory.” “It’s not launching missiles into your populated areas.” Who is responsible for that? “Iran is.”
The US representative subsequently commended the United Arab Emirates, stating they serve as an “example” of how a nation can gain from Israel during challenging times.
“Israel has just provided them with Iron Dome batteries and personnel to assist in their operation,” Huckabee stated.
Xenix News has previously revealed that Israel covertly stationed an Iron Dome air defense system and multiple troops in the UAE amidst the conflict with Iran, based on an Israeli source knowledgeable about the situation.
Iranian missiles and drones struck all six Gulf nations throughout the conflict. The UAE experienced some of the most severe impacts.
