US, Saudi Arabia on high alert over intel of impending Iranian attack: report

The United States and Saudi Arabia are on high alert after Saudi intelligence shared with the U.S. indicated that Iran is expected to carry out an attack on targets in Saudi Arabia, the Wall Street Journal reported.

Officials from both countries reportedly told the Journal about the concern over coming attacks. Saudi officials said that in addition to Saudi Arabia, Iran is also looking to strike Erbil, Iraq, where U.S. troops are located. The planned attacks are said to be intended as a distraction from protests taking place in Iran against the Islamic nation's leadership.

Pentagon press secretary Air Force Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder said Tuesday during a press briefing that the U.S. remains "concerned" about "the threat situation in the region" and is "in regular contact" with Saudi officials.

"We will reserve the right to protect and defend ourselves no matter where our forces are serving, whether in Iraq or elsewhere," Ryder said, declining to give information about any specific threat.............

  • I don't believe in Trump anymore, he's an illusion
Has Brandon told the Saudis yet that if they expect US support they better pony up more oil? Of course that would only be blackmail or pay to play if it was a republican doing it, with Brandon the democrats and their media lap dogs would call it statesmanship.

I really love a war in the middle east.  The smell of burning oil fields in the morning is wonderful.

How much real information do you think the Saudis are sharing with the US,
knowing how in love Biden is with the "death to America" regime in Iran?

The only thing restraining Iran is the fact that
Israel is fully able and willing to vaporize them.

If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion,
mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.

Iran probably has a nuke. They just need to test it.

If carried out, this'll take oil to close to $150-$200/bbl.

World economies will start screeching to a halt with fuel shortages.

Anyone watching this as the 3rd Front of a Russian/Chicom/Iran manuever?
