This contention between Iran and several others in the gulf is far from settled. For some time now, we've been watching this steady tit-for-tat, even seeing at least one probable false flag attack. What we're not seeing is the reactions and preparations behind the scenes by involved nations.
That's what's happening though. They are moving inexorably toward a position where they are confident that they can compete as soon as they perceive sufficient opportunity and justification. The trouble is, it's not just one capable party doing that. It's ALL of them. It would not surprise me in the least if God's timing above all of this is that they drastically weaken each other just before the New Kingdom takes power.
