I was really hoping that the China brokered peace with Iran was a sign of things to come. I don’t know if it is shortsightedness or fear, but they should have distanced themselves from the US. Even if they try and drum up sectarianism against Iran no one wants to die fighting for the US and Israel.
It’s probably a combination of both. They are effectively under US occupation, and they also figured that they were too valuable for the US not to protect them. Now they’re realizing that they’re expendable, and that Americans can’t save them, but it’s too late.
