LIVE: Iran Broke the Gulf Shield— and Trump Broke an 80‑Year Promise | US Iran War | N18G

Iran’s 2026 retaliation has shattered the long‑standing US security guarantee in the Gulf — and why Iran attacked Gulf states instead of the United States. On Firstpost, Shubhangi Sharma examines the 80‑year petrodollar security architecture, where the US promised protection in exchange for Gulf oil priced in dollars, and how February 28, 2026 changed everything. Iran’s drone and missile strikes on the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Oman exposed the limits of American power, dented the petrodollar system, and pushed Gulf states to “diversify their security partners”, mainly China. Watch to understand the real cost of the war, the damage to US bases, the 2,000+ drones, the blocked Strait of Hormuz, and the quiet moment the Gulf stopped fully trusting the American shield.
