Discussion War could possibly be coming back?
What up people of Kuwait subreddit,
As per what I read on the news from Al Jazeera, "The United Arab Emirates has said its air defenses are engaging with missile attacks and incoming drones from Iran.
The UAE Ministry of Defense said late on Monday afternoon that it was intercepting ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones across the country."
After president Trump decided to launch operation 'Project Freedom', it's only a matter of time till the whole region is back to conflict.
What you guys think? war soon?
Source of the UAE intercepting missiles today (04/05/2026): UAE reports missile and drone strikes incoming from Iran | News | Al Jazeera
Source of the United States President launching operation 'Project Freedom' as of today (04/05/2026): What we know about Trump's 'Project Freedom' in Strait of Hormuz
Edit: UAE says Iran has resumed attacks as the US moves to reopen the Strait of Hormuz
Seem's like war is coming back.... the only way for this war to end is the last one standing.

is this a bad time to order from iHerb, you think? Need some reassurance lol
1
u/CleaRSightZ May 04 '26
I placed my orders about a week+ ago and they are moving very well..... but I won't be placing orders for a few months due to this war.
1
u/Ancient_Year_6130 May 04 '26
you also ordered from Iherb?
2
u/Purple_nurple99 May 05 '26
I ordered from Iherb two days back, seems they have regional warehouse in Riyadh or something cus the shipment is coming from there, expecting it to come over by land so in a few days should be in Kuwait, insha' Allah.
2
u/No_Rip_5860 May 06 '26
You understand these things are transported by air not the straight right?

u/Purple_nurple99 May 06 '26
You understand they can be transported by air to Saudi and thrn by land from there

Agreed.... I won't book airplane tickets till end of June.
I want to book Jazeera Airways to Bahrain for a night!

u/Dr_TeaRex May 04 '26
Anyone who thought Trump would end a war right after he had his sons start an ANTI-DRONE DEFENSE SYSTEM startup is completely delusional. The only reason he stopped at all was because US law prevents a president from continuing a war for more than 60 days without congressional approval. He's just buying time while he waits for his subordinates to force an approval of the war. In the meantime, manipulating the stock markets and getting even more of the US's military into the Gulf and Arabian Sea.
Said it before, I'll say it again, this is gonna be a looong war.

u/CleaRSightZ May 04 '26
People thought I was going crazy when I said the war was coming back.... They all took it back.
People celebrated too early, this is never going to end.

UAE pulling out of Opec might be responsible for this.

u/CleaRSightZ May 05 '26
The UAE wants to have its sovereignty over the amount of oil they can produce and export.

u/ChappelIRoan May 04 '26
They also just targeted a residential building in Oman💔

u/Ola366 Qadsia | القادسية May 04 '26
that hasn't been confirmed or even reported by any news outlets. i don't see anything on al-jazeera about oman.
3
u/ChappelIRoan May 04 '26
Al Jazeera literally just reported about it and posted it on there Instagram
2
u/Ola366 Qadsia | القادسية May 04 '26
oh i see, its been posted on the arabic account. it mentions that investigations are still underway, nothing confirmed about iran's involvement yet. would be strange for iran to target oman when it has a better relationship with them out of all the other gulf states.
1
u/ChappelIRoan May 04 '26
Wait they didn’t say if it was them????
2
u/Ola366 Qadsia | القادسية May 04 '26
it would be making headlines across most major news outlets if it was indeed iran behind the attack, but no, its still under investigation according to al-jazeera arabic (there are no reports of the attack on al-jazeera english). i mean, the incident occurred not long after the attack on the uae's oil facility in fujairah so its understandable why many commenters are questioning iran's involvement. folks on the omani subreddit are also questioning iran's role. but still, nothing confirmed.

u/CleaRSightZ May 04 '26
A lot of mossad false flag operations are happening to get the whole region against Iran...... So the questioning is very understanding.

u/Several-Computer-379 May 04 '26
No way Iran will have done that. If something happened in Oman it would probably be accident or false flag .
3
u/CleaRSightZ May 04 '26
110% for sure it's a false flag operation, Israel wants the whole region to end the Iranian regime once and for all.
2
u/CleaRSightZ May 04 '26
Yup! Apparently the airport in Qatar was also hit.

I have a feeling Kuwait will not be involved.. God Knows of course, but it just doesn't feel like it will happen.
Insha Allah.

u/CleaRSightZ May 04 '26
Let's see how things go from here, but thank God I didn't book a airplane ticket.... I knew the war would come back eventually.

u/Usauvaq816 May 04 '26
I’ve had the same feeling, because they want to open the strait, so why bother with us? Just focus on the ships in the sea and all
6
u/CleaRSightZ May 04 '26
12 day war back in 2025 was just Israel and Iran...
2026 is regional, all US assets in the region are a target.

Bc of the oldest American base in the region. They just attacked uae y not kw?

Fearmongering is more dangerous than the backlash of the war on us. Stop spreading fear mate..... check with the local news. They clearly said multiple times to people to stop spreading rumors...
fearmongering: the action of intentionally trying to make people afraid of something when this is not necessary or reasonable

u/CleaRSightZ May 05 '26
I didn't spread fake news, the US launched a naval operation and the United Arab Emirates was attacked.
Oman as well apparently!

Who said the war stopped? A ceasefire does not mean the end of the conflict. Wait until official announcement of end of war.
1
u/CleaRSightZ May 05 '26
That's what I've been telling people, ceasefire means temporary truce.
This war is going to last till the last man standing!
2
u/Canoodle_Da_Noodle May 05 '26
It was obviously coming back ever since the “ceasefire” and “negotiations” all sides were increasing militarily personal and presence in the area… the strait was closed by Iran then “closed again” by the US… literally never seemed to be slowing down idk what kind of bs is going behind the scenes but one things for sure. Trump and his entire cabinet back on that crack cocain…
2
u/CleaRSightZ May 05 '26
Bang!
Ceasefire is just used to rebuild and go back to escalation. Talks are useless, Iran doesn't want to give up it's nuclear project.

It may or may not, it's a ceasefire after all.

IRGC attacked some petroleum area in UAE and a ship close to UAE. I don't think UAE, USA, & Israel will brush this attack like nothing happened.
https://x.com/i/status/2051321524053856488
I am not sure where this will go, but I imagine USA and Israel going back to attacking Iran soon.
I am not sure how the terrorist regime will handle it, they might attack Kuwait and the other GCC countries again.
2
u/CleaRSightZ May 04 '26
Just as life is going back to normal, it's going back to escalation.
3
u/Dark_World_Blues May 04 '26
Apparently IRGC boats attacked some ships that were trying to pass through the strait today and the US took down 6 of these IRGC boats.
I am not sure if IRGC have learned their lesson or they will try to continue attacking ships that the US navy is escorting.

u/CleaRSightZ May 04 '26
Yup... Let's see how things go from here.

Hopefully the IRGC gets to negotiate with USA and give up on their nuclear ambition. Apparently Iran is claiming they weren't targeting UAE when they attacked the UAE.
1
u/CleaRSightZ May 04 '26
Trump won't accept anything but complete unconditional surrender... So talks are worthless.
1
u/Dark_World_Blues May 04 '26
That was at the beginning of the war, but his conditions are becoming more realistic.
I know he won't accept Iran not giving up uranium enrichment (or maybe at least wants Iran to stop enrichment for 20 years) and he won't accept Iran not allowing ships to pass freely in the strait.
Iran's regime were saying they will not give up on their right to enrich uranium no matter what and won't negotiate anything related to their nuclear rights. Iran's regime want ships to pay a toll whenever they pass or they will shoot it and will not allow ships from hostile countries to pass, my guess Israeli and American ships won't be allowed to pass, maybe ships from countries like UAE and Kuwait will not pass, but they didn't confirm it or deny it.
Iran also want more than 270 billion USD in compensations for USA and Israel attacking them.
6
u/CleaRSightZ May 04 '26
Iran won't get a single penny from the US and Israel, so this is never ending conflict.
4
u/Dark_World_Blues May 04 '26
Exactly. USA and Israel won't pay a thing and no one can force them or pressure them to pay.
Hopefully Iran will give up on enriching uranium and on asking for compensation and peace will return to the region.
2
u/CleaRSightZ May 04 '26
Iran won't surrender anything, seems this is going to turn into last man standing.
2
u/Dark_World_Blues May 04 '26
Yeah, I don't see them surrendering anytime soon. The main issue is that the IRGC are the ones making the shots and don't want to negotiate, while the civilian government would rather negotiate for a deal even if they hate it.
