US attempting to pass the buck to its Gulf allies

US Sen. Lindsey Graham, talking as if he were the commander in chief, on Monday issued a veiled threat to Arab Gulf states, urging them to attack Iran. He said there would be “consequences” if they did not do so. Despite the very aggressive and provocative Iranian actions, the Gulf Cooperation Council states know they have no dog in this fight. They want to stay out of this war and they are right to do so. The US is attempting the strategy of buck passing. It wants its allies to bear the brunt of fighting Iran while it incurs minimal costs.
