      Gulf Cooperation Council is essentially west side of Persian Gulf. It is very oil rich region, includes 2-3 very rich, countries with city infrastructure better developed than any US city. Dubai is epitomy of this with global financial/transport/tourism center, tallest sky scraper in world. War has caused a 30%-50% property value drop. Iran has been striking energy and US bases in these countries.

      US wealth is far more dependent on GCC investment than Israel control. This war has ended, because GCC were threatening US. Terms includes not rebuilding destroyed US bases, and leaving the ones they still occupy.
