Did you know Arab countries helped Israel shoot down Iran’s missiles?

Iran was attacking through Jordan's airspace, also Israel have a peace treaty with Jordan.
Iran finances Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis, Iran is clearly the head of the snake.

Middle Eastern politics are way way way too complicated to apply the American way of thinking. We like everything nice and straight forward. Good guy. Bad guy. And we usually like to draw that distinction around cultural or racial lines.
Even just the last 100 years of Middle Eastern history is a Masters, PhD, and Post Doc course in diplomacy gone wrong (or gone right, I suppose, depending on your perspective).
you described the unusual twists in film home alone 2012!
similarly the original bilbo in book hobbit was not a good guy!
but the film adjusted him for marketing to westerners as you described.
we are used to: marvel obviously heros! saving from obvious villains. but real life is more complex. aiming at civilians in contrast to israel not aiming at civilians makes israel the good guy.
SA is a shit show in itself. They don’t know where they stand with anything or any nation.

Some Arab countries are just as much worried about incursions by Iran as the Israelis are. So it was in their best interests to shoot down missiles and drones intended for Israel. Also, a lot of this equipment was launched over their territories which offended them greatly and which they had no intention of putting up with. Saving face in this way is a very big issue in Arabic culture.
despite make sense against iran, i doubt it. jordan barely recognized israel existence! saudi still has not!
the rumor is iran lost its air defense protection for its nuclear production showing it was vulberable, like COULD LOSE very expensive stuff, that is a SUPER deterrent to keep iran from firing rockets at israel again... STOPPING escalated.
iran might lose their expensive stuff!
Of course. They have treaties with Israel and hate Iran.
only jordan n egypt. saudi arabia negotiations were tried in 2022 but broke down.
@strateguy632… and hate Iran.
Oh, they hate each more…
Dogma is a sad thing.

Because Jordan's king has a Jewish mother.
