I guess the US marines are also operating the Saudi oil facility and French base on their time off Their actual current explanation is that they can't control

  I was talking about the explanation for hotels only. The general strategy makes a lot of sense for a desperate regime: Instead of striking Israel(densest AA network in the world, long flight path so lots of time to intercept) they will force US to expend AA material all over theater and make US allies question credibility of defense. It's not like only hitting Israel or US will improve their reputation.

    > The general strategy makes a lot of sense for a desperate regime The issue is that they are also attacking their closest friends in the region, as opposed to the other gulf nations which were merely pressuring the US not to attack due to fear. They have thrown the stone in the metaphorical glass house towards the oil facilities very early in the conflict. I think this is more an issue of mismanagement rather than strategy. They probably do have a very acute command and control issue due to the strikes. It's also a good preview of how Iran with nuclear weapons would play out

  Israel was behind the Saudi oil facility attack. Saudi has confirmed it was not an Iranian attack.
