Iran regime’s brazen bluff: Demands compensation amidst its own attacks
A shocking new low from Tehran! They're bombing the UAE, then crying foul and demanding cash.

Iran's regime is playing a dangerous game, audaciously demanding UN compensation from the UAE. This isn't about justice; it's a desperate disinformation tactic to deflect from Tehran's rampant aggression and destabilize the Gulf.
Iran’s UN Ambassador, Amir Saeid Iravani, brazenly claims the UAE enabled "US strikes," yet the truth is far more sinister.
Reality: Iran's onslaught
The UAE is reeling from unprovoked Iranian aggression, intercepting hundreds of missiles and drones. These aren't precision strikes on military targets; they're devastating attacks on civilian airports, homes, and vital oil facilities.
This shatters Iran's false narrative.
Analysts expose Iran's demand as a desperate ploy. Cairo University's Wael Al-Shuraimi calls it a preemptive move to stifle future Gulf claims. UAE's Anwar Gargash insists the real compensation is owed by Iran for its destructive warpath.
The world sees through Iran's lies; the UAE stands firm.
Since our childhood, we have prayed to Allah that the rotten Iran of the Persian Gulf would not exist.
The Iranian regime is fractured, and its statements inspire no confidence. It seeks to project an image of victory and dictate terms. Netanyahu, for his part, wants war and regional expansion to seize control of the region and its oil resources. However, we pray to Allah to humiliate him and to ensure that the nation's wealth remains with its rightful owners, so that its people may enjoy the benefits of their country's resources and stability. We do not want destruction, such as that witnessed in Syria and Lebanon, nor the displacement of populations, nor the loss of the nation and its children, left deprived of education and proper upbringing. Rather, we aspire for its preeminence through stability, knowledge, faith, and progress.
May Allah keep the land of the UAE and its people safe and secure, enjoying lasting peace—Amen.
Allah willing, the Arab nations will once again be united, despite all the wars and conflicting policies so that we may remain the most beautiful region in the world.
The Islamic and Arab worlds must stand in solidarity with the Gulf states against Iran's barbaric aggression, which threatens the region.
Iran is a scourge upon all Arabs, and Allah knows this to be true. May Allah grant victory to our homeland over Iran, [...] Allah and the Islamic faith. May Allah protect you all. Lebanon deserves to advance! What is this ? It is a sin—this constant bombardment! We know that Israel is powerful, but innocent children are dying under aerial strikes. It is a sin! Stop the attacks, for the sake of the children and the elderly..
May Allah protect us!
Iran seeks to destroy the Middle East and North Africa, Central Region, Riyadh, al-Qasseem Al-Khames.
O Lord, Most Generous,
Protect all Arab nations and grant us victory over the enemies of the faith.
I am with Iran.
May Allah not grant Iran success.
We stand with our Arab brethren, heart and soul, against Iran and against anything that threatens our Arab homeland.
The Gulf front stands united, awaiting no demands from the Iranians; it shows no mercy to the enemies of the Arab homeland.
Iran is a thousand times more dangerous than the Zionists.
I like it. By Allah, I know it's beautiful.
May Allah grant victory to Iran against the enemies of Allah, religion and Islam!
Iran is an evil for all Arabs
May Allah protect you, o, people of Lebanon!
What is this? It is a sin—this bombardment. We know that Israel is powerful, but children are dying in the crossfire. It is wrong; stop the attacks for the sake of the children and the elderly.
And who will compensate the Gazans—or the Lebanese, Syrians, Iraqis, Israelis, and others? It is war, delusions of grandeur, and the impunity of those who ignite it.
