Vice President JD Vance discusses a potential $300 billion fund for Iran's reconstruction, contingent on Iran meeting nuclear obligations, with funding from Gulf states, not US taxpayers

‘That’s the sort of thing they could have access to, funded by the Gulf Coast Coalition, so long as they honour their end of the obligation.’

    I think it might be from the other angle - them being pushovers and collaborators with the US and Israel, doing nothing to prevent or even facilitating their power in the region. E.g. hosting US military bases, funding the US by buying weapons from them and investing in their capital markets, hosting Israeli intelligence (UAE) etc.
