Since the outbreak of the regional conflict, Iran and its aligned networks have targeted critical civilian infrastructure, energy networks, and commercial assets across the Middle East. Major non-military targets hit include;
Energy & Petrochemical Infrastructure: Iranian and proxy strikes (via drones and missiles) have severely impacted major oil refineries, liquid natural gas (LNG) plants, and export terminals in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Qatar. Debris and attacks also forced the shutdown of the Habshan gas complex and disrupted the Fujairah export terminal in the UAE. In Bahrain, strikes on the Sitra oil refinery caused disruptions leading to a declaration of force majeure.
Communications & Utility Hubs: Satellite imagery has documented severe damage to satellite communication sites, such as the long-range AN/FPS-132 early-warning radar in Qatar, and power plants at U.S. installations like Camp Buehring in Kuwait, which also provide broader civilian grid utility.
Maritime & Shipping Targets: Civilian commercial vessels, including foreign-flagged ships, have been repeatedly struck or harassed in the Red Sea, the Persian Gulf, and the Gulf of Oman, heavily disrupting regional supply chains.
Urban & Civilian Centers: Drone and ballistic missile barrages have penetrated civilian areas in both Israel and neighboring Gulf countries. In exchanges with Israel, both sides have repeatedly struck petrochemical plants, most notably targeting the Haifa petrochemical facilities.
You're going to need a whole list of excuses.

First Thing: Netanyahu orders Iran strikes despite Trump claiming ‘I call all the shots’
Direct exchange of fire between warring nations in apparent defiance of Trump was in response to an Israeli attack on Beirut, and breaks April’s ceasefire.
It's hard to claim you're calling the shots when Netanyahu isn't listening to thing you tell him.
Finally this morning a somewhat tenative agreement full of stipulations has at least temporarily stopped the exchange between Israel and Iran is beginning to surface.
What to know about the Iran war today:
Iran's military said Monday that it had halted operations following a dramatic exchange of fire with Israel that has tested an incredibly fragile truce between Tehran and Washington.
President Trump told Israel and Iran to "immediately stop 'shooting'" at each other and said both sides were seeking an "immediate ceasefire" after the weekend flare-up that began with Israeli airstrikes on Lebanon's capital Beirut.
Yemen's Houthi rebels said Monday they were banning Israeli vessels from the key shipping lanes of the Red Sea. The Iranian-backed group appears to be engaging more directly in the war, also announcing a missile attack on Israel.

I think that you really should stop using AI to form your arguments. It really doesn't understand what it is spitting out any better than you seem (not) to.
Category 2 only actually mentions military targets.
In category 4, the Haifa industrial bay is a big part of Israeli military logistics.
Which hotel they hit in Dubai? I'm mostly seeing stories of debris from intercepted drones hitting near hotels. As in, the hotels weren't actually the targets.
I agree they are targeting the energy sector/shipping, it seems likely in an attempt to get countries that rely on imports to put diplomatic pressure on us. A terrorist supporting government is going to do terrorist-y things. Messed up, but it will probably be effective. UN and NATO already wanted to negotiate, despite the fact Iran doesn't hold up their end of any negotiations. Now Iran and its proxies are essentially taking economic "hostages." Negotiating with bad faith quasi-terrorists doesn't strike me as a particularly good idea.
I still think the US and Israel are the most likely targets for an Iranian/Iranian backed terrorist group WMD attack. I haven't seen anything to suggest otherwise.
You mess with the "Bull," you get the horns. Fiercely Independent.
Do you even watch what's going on or just try to make excuses that every non military target they are striking somehow is a direct strike at "The U.S. or Israel". Because your entire premise is that we are the only two countries that Iran is a threat to.

Your assertion was incorrect. You can't address many places Iran struck on its neighbors as direct strikes against the U.S. or Israel. They are a threat to several nations in the region and everyone even attempting to be honest understands that.

What assertion? The one you're trying to twist into something that wasn't the original intent? None of these are WMD attacks.
I actually research the news instead of just devouring AI generated slop. Your video even notes the Marina hotel strike hadn't been confirmed. That's why I asked which hotel. It's hard to find details on that alleged strike. The other "hotels" mentioned weren't hit directly by drones/rockets, they just had debris land nearby. Details matter.
Yes, Iran is a threat to everyone they can reach. But, the WMD case seems to be more restricted to us and Israel. The US and Israel are the ones they want to wipe off the face of the earth. Don't go trying to present some BS premise with bad absolutist language as allegedly mine.
You mess with the "Bull," you get the horns. Fiercely Independent.
Iran has never launched a WMD attack and lacks a method to deploy such a weapon to the U.S. They've never launched one to Israel either and all you have is "But what if?"
That's not a legitimate cause for war.
Have you missed what you have been doing? You have been making excuses for every target they have hit in the region as a threat to U.S. and after that failed miserably you have decided to move in a different direction. Now you tell me not to present a BS premise?

When Will Iran War End? Trump Says US Will Declare 'Total Victory' In Two Weeks
Trump's remarks came after renewed strikes between Iran and Israel threatened to derail peace negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
US President Donald Trump suggested that Washington will declare “total victory" over Iran in the next two weeks, after renewed strikes launched by Tehran and Israel threatened to derail peace negotiations on Monday.
Speaking at a tele-rally for South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham, Trump said both sides were negotiating despite yesterday’s missile attacks, and that Iran was willing to “give us everything", including curbs on its nuclear programme, CNN reported.
“I think we are winning that battle, but you’re really going to win it over the next two weeks when we declare total victory. It’ll be a total victory. It’ll happen very soon, and oil prices will come tumbling down," Trump said.
This is not the first time Trump has made promises about ending the war in a two-week period. The initial ceasefire between the US and Iran, struck on April 7, was initially supposed to last two weeks, but key differences still remain for a final agreement.
It’ll happen very soon, and oil prices will come tumbling down," Trump said.
Nothing will come tumbling down fast. If the Straits were open tomorrow and the war over with a peace deal in place ... it would take months and months and months for prices to come down to anywhere close to where it was before. 9+ months at a minimum. That's just based on logistics and moving tankers - not looking at a bigger picture of resupplying reserves or companies taking advantage of the situation for profit.

It's a complex topic with multiple issues. It's not something you can simplify to all or nothing like you keep trying to.
As far as putting pressure on us, they're seemingly willing to attack anyone within reach of their cheaper short range weapons.
As far as wanting countries not to exist, that seems to be mostly restricted to us and Israel. Certainly, Iran is not currently going out of their way to attack the EU. Maybe Britain is on the shortlist after the oil company situation back when, too, but I don't really see the same degree of hateful rhetoric directed their way.
We've gone over this before. I don't have a voice in my head that says things out loud. I can read just fine, though. Trying to sort out your tangled twisting and straight up misunderstood/misrepresented information can be a challenge.

Excuse me? It has been you all along who has been trying to simplify this as an "all or nothing" by trying to claim every target Iran has hit in the region was directly tied to the U.S. That's simply not true. Trying to act as if every target Iran has hit in the region was directly tied to U.S targets is false on every level.

When did Iran ever "Go out of their way to attack the EU"? Did you mean they are showing nothing at all which would indicate they are going after the EU?

1. No, you were the one trying to claim that military targets were civilian. I clarified on particular ones where it was more complicated than you made it look or where you were just flat out incorrect.
2. It was always my position. There were multiple separate positions that you keep conflating in your effort to disguise your distortions that I pointed out.
3. I never claimed they did. In fact, I said the opposite. That's what I was getting at, no indications that the EU home front is an imminent target. Which was one of my earlier reasons for why the EU might not want to get involved now if they don't have to.
4. Not ditto. You have claimed to have a voice in your head. And, your reading comprehension does not seem very good. I do believe you have trouble following and keeping track of your own written peregrinations, though.

This is a very good read. I have speculated for a while now that this war has empowered Iran and highlighted their one bit of overwhelming leverage - just by surviving, they can shut the Straits. Their tolerance for suffering is far greater than Trump's/the USAs
Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu believed that victory over Iran would reshape the Middle East.
The region is being reshaped. But not in the way they expected. The Islamic Republic of Iran has not been defeated. The risk now is of a long, attritional permacrisis that will lurch in and out of outright conflict.
The Iranian regime has proved to be a much harder nut to crack than Trump and Netanyahu had assumed. Their judgement was wrong, and they have lost control of the consequences.
The latest of those is Iran's downing of the US Apache helicopter. It is another reminder that Iran's rulers can still hurt the Americans and will not budge in their determination to come out of this war on top. For them, victory equals survival and enhanced deterrence, in the shape of acknowledgement of their control of the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most strategic waterways.
The president and his generals will try to calibrate their response to the loss of the helicopter, to show just as emphatically that they cannot be pushed around, but at the same time to preserve the sluggish and so far unproductive diplomatic process. The Apache's crew survived. Had they been killed, a much harsher response would have been likely.
Trump has been banking on a deal with Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and agree the terms of much longer-term talks over the big issues, starting with Iran's stockpile of enriched uranium and its wider nuclear plans.
The war is unpopular in America and he wants a way out he can present as a victory. It is proving to be a tough challenge.
Trump and Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyau are learning an old lesson.
Ever since humans discovered the art and curse of war, leaders have found out that it is easier to start a war than to end one with a clear victory.
When they led their countries to war with Iran on the last day of February, both issued video statements, choosing words that reflected an assumption that a moment of historical change was coming. The regime that had ruled Iran since the Shah was overthrown in 1979 was on the way out.
In the small hours of the morning at Mar-a-Lago, his Florida resort, Trump, picked up on the promise he had made to Iranian opponents of the regime in January that "help is on its way."
"To the great proud people of Iran, I say tonight that the hour of your freedom is at hand. Stay sheltered. Don't leave your home. It's very dangerous outside. Bombs will be dropping everywhere. When we are finished, take over your government. It will be yours to take. This will be probably your only chance for generations."
The next morning, Netanyahu stood in the sunlight on the roof of the Kyria, Israel's high rise defence ministry in central Tel Aviv, to record his address. Like Trump, he spoke as if victory was certain.
"This coalition of forces allows us to do what I have yearned to do for 40 years: smite the terror regime hip and thigh. This is what I promised – and this is what we shall do."
Throughout his political life, Netanyahu has argued that the real threat to Israel comes from Iran, not from the Palestinians or his country's Arab neighbours. He had tried and failed to get other American presidents to join him in attacking Iran. Trump was different.
For more than two years, since Hamas attacked Israel on 7 October 2023, Netanyahu had told Israelis that the power of their military, backed by America, would vanquish their enemies and usher in a richer and safer future. Force, not diplomacy, was the answer.
Netanyahu had the air of a man whose moment had come. In contrast, when he faced the cameras after Trump told him to cancel his plans to attack Beirut on Monday, the leading Israeli newspaper columnist Ben Caspit said he looked like a deflated balloon.
Caspit is one of the prime minister's most vociferous critics. But it is clear that Netanyahu's strategy of using force to bend the region to his will has failed.
Trump expected a quick victory. He had watched with delight as the US military abducted the president of Venezuela and his wife, sent them to a jail in New York and installed a compliant successor in Caracas. Textbook regime change, he believed, way better than the forever wars fought by his predecessors in Iraq and Afghanistan. Iran would be next on the list.
Both men must be wondering what went wrong. The United States has the world's most powerful military. Israel is the superpower of the Middle East.
Trump and Netanyahu saw a regime in Tehran reeling from economic crisis caused by sanctions, mismanagement and corruption. Israel had delivered hammer blows to its allies, Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon. Its other key ally, Bashar al Assad had been deposed as president of Syria and fled to Moscow. In January the regime crushed huge demonstrations against it by killing thousands of Iranian citizens.
They underestimated the resilience, ruthlessness and guile of the Islamic regime. They believed that killing its supreme leader and his closest lieutenants would cause the regime to collapse from within.
They overestimated the efficacy of military force against a regime that had faced repeated threats for almost 50 years, had engineered itself to survive an attack and had thought hard about a conception of national security backed up by its religious and ideological convictions.
The Gulf oil states, allies of the US, and in the case of the UAE and Bahrain of Israel too, have suffered hammer blows. It is not simply lost revenue from petrochemicals and their byproducts, like fertiliser. They have built their futures around creating an oasis of stability and multi-billion-dollar business in the Gulf. Potential investors, and tourists, see the war turning that vision into a mirage.
The Iranian regime believes its survival and the ease with which it put a chokehold on the world economy by closing the Strait of Hormuz and attacking its Gulf Arab neighbours can be translated into long-term deterrence against the US and Israel.
The men who have replaced the old guard of Iranian leaders killed by Israel and the US are just as ideological as their predecessors but much more willing to take risks in what they see as an existential struggle. They believe that words alone will not stop more attacks in the future from the US or Israel. Instead, they want to demonstrate that more attacks on Iran will lead to painful consequences.
A key part of its strategy is linking the war in Lebanon with the war in the Gulf. The regime's message to Trump is that he cannot hope for any kind of deal if Israel continues to bomb Lebanon and to try to destroy Hezbollah, the militia and political movement that it has nurtured since the 1980s as its forward defence against Israel.
By curbing Israel's plans to attack Beirut, on the grounds that a deal was near (a claim he has made before, erroneously), Trump has shown implicitly that he accepts the link between what happens in Lebanon and what happens in the Gulf.
On Monday, Netanyahu said he would not accept the linkage. It was he said, "intolerable and completely unacceptable." His problem is that Trump will put his interests and desire to end the war ahead of Netanyahu's determination for it to continue until he can declare the Islamic regime in Tehran has been crippled.
Netanyahu cancelled a planned attack on Beirut, but since then Israel's military, the IDF, has continued to hit southern Lebanon very hard.
When the Strait of Hormuz was closed in March, there were dire warnings of global economic consequences if it was still closed by June.
Not only does the vital waterway that was open until the US and Israel attacked Iran remain closed. Without remarkable diplomatic breakthroughs, it is hard to see it reopening any time soon.

May 27, 2026 War talks: US President Donald Trump said he won’t be rushed into a deal, warning that Iran’s efforts to outlast him won’t work because he doesn’t “care about the midterms.” The White House dismissed Iranian state media reports that a memorandum of understanding being negotiated would lift the US blockade of Iranian ports in exchange for the reopening of the strait.
Trump: 'Iran has taken too long to negotiate a deal, now it will pay a price'
US president Donald Trump said Iran has “taken too long to negotiate a deal” and that it will “have to pay the price” as a result.
He did not clarify what action he intended to take, but the US military has been striking Iranian targets, including air defences and radar sites, near the Gulf. It is also not clear what this means for the ongoing diplomatic efforts to end the war, with Trump previously insisting that a deal could be reached.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump said:
Iran’s Military is a complete and total mess. Much of it, like their Navy and Air Force, doesn’t even exist anymore - They have been completely defeated. Iran is all talk and no action. The Bully of the Middle East is DEAD!!! They’ve taken too long to negotiate a deal that would have been great for them, now they will have to pay the price!!!
