After the US strike on Soleimani, Persian Gulf countries worry about a war on their doorstep.

But the crisis with Iran has produced a rare moment of unity among the Gulf Arab states, with all Gulf Cooperation Council governments issuing similar public statements in recent days calling for restraint and dialogue and warning of the risks of further escalation.

European governments have called for calm and long opposed Trump's decision to pull the U.S. out of the nuclear agreement between Iran and world powers. Privately, European diplomats expressed alarm at the killing of Soleimani, viewing it as a high-risk move that illustrated how the United States under his leadership was an erratic player on the world stage that could not be relied on.

While the drone strike deepened the transatlantic divide over Iran, Gulf allies in Riyadh and Abu Dhabi still view President Trump as a staunch ally who shares their view of Tehran and who will not raise uncomfortable questions over their human rights records. Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates in particular had grown frustrated with Trump's predecessor, with officials privately scoffing at former President Barack Obama's emphasis on human rights and what they saw as an overly conciliatory approach to Iran in nuclear negotiations.

Those Hawks aren’t doing that much. His remarks as “It doesn’t matter I want to know if Republicans called Trump out the way they did Ms Clinton for hours and brow beat her over Benzazi. I seriously doubt it.

Anyone else noticing the apparent coordinated 'blackout' on the Iranian protesters by the corrupt MSM?

We don’t need anyone’s permission to strike back at a terrorist

Of course......... but will Iran make that impossible to do?

What 'Persian Gulf countries' did you talk to ? JZarif HassanRouhani khamenei_ir and the IRGC are not countries. The GCC and coalition partners knew what killing an American meant. They've been waiting for the President to enforce it.
