Although the UAE and everyone else Iran has attacked may not have directly attacked Iran, they are hosting the American infrastructure making the attacks possible.

I can understand why Iran considers most gulf states complicit.

Here's a map of the 'complicit' nations the IRGC has been bombing:

That's: Syria, Lebanon, Cyprus, Azerbaijan, Iraq, Kuwait, Bahrain, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, and Oman.

There is no point for the IRGC to do this other than to create such chaos and fear that the world pressures America to relent.

And why do you believe the USA doesn’t have bases at these locations?

I believe Iran leadership are aware of geo politics much better than the American and even European.

They are experts at the new type of war fare, war with low cost kamikaze drones.
