The Artificial Lung of the Zionist Project: How Riyadh and Abu Dhabi Gave a “Kiss of Life” to the Collapsing American War Economy?

As the American-Zionist aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran enters its second month, the political landscape in Riyadh and Abu Dhabi transcends mere “suspicious silence,” entering a phase of complete strategic exposure. Field data and information flows no longer allow for describing the situation as “inaction” in its traditional sense, but rather place it within the context of an “organic partnership” aimed at reshaping the region according to Zionist specifications. This investigation raises fundamental questions about the radical shift in the role of the Arab regimes that have normalized relations with Israel, which have transformed from “political subservience” to a logistical, military, and intelligence “support base.” Are we witnessing the “neutrality” claimed by these capitals, or are we witnessing joint operations rooms managing the war and preparing to bury the Palestinian cause under the rubble of targeted Iranian facilities?

A careful reading of the course of events proves that what is happening is not merely a response to American pressure, but rather an “existential choice” made by the Saudi and Emirati regimes. They see the collapse of the resistance axis as essential for the survival of their thrones and the implementation of the “Deal of the Century” in its most brutal form. By comparing official statements with leaked confessions from decision-making circles in Washington and Tel Aviv, this report reveals how Arab geography has been transformed into a lifeline for the Zionist air force, and how the nation’s resources have been melted down in the crucible of NATO to deliver a treacherous blow to the heart of the Islamic world and its first Qibla in occupied Jerusalem.

Intelligence Integration: An Open Field Partnership

The Zionist aerial incursions into Iranian territory would not have been carried out “surgically,” as the occupation claims, were it not for the “information integration” network provided by Riyadh and Abu Dhabi. According to a report in The Washington Post, joint operations rooms in the region now operate on an “open data” protocol, whereby Saudi and Emirati radar signals flow directly to Zionist air command centers under the supervision of the US Central Command. This cooperation was confirmed by General Eric Corella in an official press briefing, noting that the “partners’ defense infrastructure” provided proactive protection for Israel against any Iranian retaliation. The New York Times also revealed that Israeli F-35 fighter jets used Saudi sovereign airspace for aerial refueling operations, a process that could not be carried out without high-level technical coordination between the radar systems of the two countries.

On the intelligence front, the security affairs website Intelligence Online revealed the presence of permanent Israeli “liaison units” at the UAE’s Al Dhafra Air Base, tasked with analyzing the flight paths of Iranian drones and deciphering local communication codes. According to the Wall Street Journal, Saudi Arabia provided updated satellite-generated topographic maps of some vital Iranian facilities under the pretext of preventing “cross-border threats,” data that was directly used to target Israeli objectives. A report in The Guardian adds that intelligence cooperation was not limited to surveillance, but also included a joint cyberwar aimed at disrupting Iran’s internal communication networks during the bombing raids. Military analysts at the Institute for the Study of War considered this a shift from passive defense to active offense.

Testimonies published by Axios, citing US Department of Defense (Pentagon) officials, confirm that the coordination “exceeded expectations.” Saudi reconnaissance aircraft conducted electronic decoy operations to cover the infiltration of Israeli aircraft. According to the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, direct communication channels between Riyadh and Tel Aviv remained open from the moment the first shot was fired, ensuring no accidental clashes occurred in their shared airspace. This operational integration was also confirmed by a report from the International Institute for Strategic Studies, which indicated that the UAE Air Force carried out logistical missions “under the guise of training” to secure evacuation and rescue corridors for Israeli aircraft in case of damage, making the two regimes “field partners” in every raid conducted.

Oil Finance: The Lifeline of the Aggressor

On the economic front, the two regimes acted as a “security network” that prevented the collapse of the war economies in Washington and Tel Aviv. According to an investigative report by Bloomberg, Riyadh committed to supplying “compensatory quantities” of crude oil to ensure that energy prices did not rise in the West and Israel. The Saudi Energy Minister described this in an official statement as “concern for the stability of global growth,” while in reality, it was a way to neutralize any Iranian economic pressure. According to the Financial Times, Emirati and Saudi sovereign wealth funds injected emergency liquidity into Western financial markets to offset the costs of the US military buildup in the Gulf, which were estimated at billions of dollars. In a frank admission, Reuters quoted a US official as saying, “We fight with our weapons, and they fight with their checkbooks and oil guarantees.”

Data from the International Energy Agency reveals that Riyadh increased its production capacity by 15% immediately after the start of the aggression, in a “preemptive” move to prevent any price shock that might prompt Western public pressure to end the war. According to the Middle East Economic Survey, the UAE signed “long-term” supply agreements with Israeli energy companies at preferential prices to ensure the continued operation of the war machine and production in Israel. In the context of direct financing, CNN revealed that Saudi Arabia agreed to bear the “operating expenses” of the American Patriot and THAAD batteries deployed to protect Israeli installations, under the guise of joint defense agreements. A report by the International Monetary Fund adds that the Gulf states that normalized relations with Israel used their financial leverage to prevent the imposition of any economic sanctions on Israel.
