Why should increase Iran the stakes by attacking Saudi Arabia?

Feb 16,2020 6:24 am

US Secretary of state Mike Pompeo said on Saturday the attacks were said as an "act of war"

Saudi Arabia , there is evidence showing that Iran sponsored drones on Saturday and rocket attacks on two of its oil facilities, and called on The International community to take action. The question is whether it could be A War .

the extent of the attacks does not mean that Saudi Arabia is overlooked, what is happening, and to identify its decision, forcing Iran as the perpetrator to react The Kingdom .

The Saudis will probably have to wait until a team of independent experts of the United Nations has completed an investigation into The Incident .

Although The Experts are likely to come to the same conclusions, Namely that the attacks could not have been carried out, which will be without Iranian material support and Guidance - The Process to check the Saudis, the time, your options.

For Iran, deniability is not going to help.

Saudi Arabia and its Allies believe that the country has raised the stakes, to convince, to facilitate US President Donald Trump , the crippling economic sanctions it again, if he has left a nuclear deal with Iran in the past year, and a new one out called is.

Iran's leaders hope that the danger that the region will slide into war, The World powers come to the realization that the sanctions are a recipe for disaster.

she had hoped to offer a plan by the French President, Emmanuel Macron $15bn credit line for Iran, In Return for the compliance with the nuclear deal and a halt to its destabilizing activities in the region, a reality would be. But The Plan has not been shared by Mr Trump.

On Wednesday, the US President asked to increase his Minister of Finance, clearly, the sanctions against Iran. Iran may, therefore, exaggerate your hand.

the attacks on this scale could not happen without the approval of the Supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei .

He gave a speech This Week , in which there is not a single reference to the attacks on Saudi Arabia , the largest oil investment, or The Risk of A War Breaking Out at any moment.

Instead, he decided to reject Once Again any possibility of talks between Iranian and U.S. officials at any level as long as the U.S. sanctions remained in force.

But sooner or later, Ayatollah Khamenei, might be forced to change his attitude and voice, more than the fashion numbers in Iran, the rates are quiet in favour of.

Iran's oil exports are close to zero, his revenue stream will dry up, and its reserves of hard currency will be thought to be, is sufficient only for several months. The decline in the value of its currency pushed the inflation rate to 40% and almost half of the purchasing power of Iranians, who find it difficult to make ends meet.

So Saudi Arabia will take military action, to force, to back Iran? The Kingdom can understand do way reluctant to.

Iran has a population of 80 million, compared with Saudi Arabia is the 33 million.

Iran has thousands of missiles that Saudi Arabia 's oil facilities, military bases, and urban centres are very vulnerable. By comparison, Saudi Arabia , hundreds of Chinese-made missiles and only a limited missile defense capability.

Saudi Arabia has roughly the same number of combat aircraft such as Iran. But his planes are modern and effective, while Iran is old and unreliable.

Iran has its proxies in the region as a whole and Fans from Saudi Arabia 's minority Shia Muslim community.

Saudi Arabia is already involved in a costly war in Yemen against Iran rebel Houthi Movement oriented.

But A War directly with Iran, if it happened, inevitably, over-the-air and missile capability. No side would win come out of it rich.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei says the United States wants to deploy in Iran in the knees

Though U.S. troops, planes and ships, to be in The Gulf region, the President of trump seems to be reluctant to engage in a protracted conflict.

U.S. ships and bases would be vulnerable to attacks by Iranian missiles, and about a fifth of The World 's oil pass through the Strait of Hormuz.

Mr Trump, may be concerned about the impact on his re-election campaign of significant price increases on the tank in the USA.

For Saudi Arabia , U.S. support of the military, is crucial. But Mr Trump wants to take the Saudis The Lead in the response to Iran and pick up The Bill for all that help US.

Saudi Arabia is also want to of their regional Allies - the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain - a part no answer.

The United States could win the political and diplomatic support of its European Allies . However, you see the escalation as a direct result of Mr Trump, the decision to give up nuclear energy deal.

Meanwhile, the hardliners in Iran may be well to reflect on whether or not your strategy is that your country to war and destruction, but as the easing of sanctions.
