The likely theory is that the IRGC had a bunch of compartmentalized "if you don't hear from me, hit XYZ" targets which included Iran's Sunni Gulf State enemies.Why tf did Iran bomb Arabia?
When the opening strike came and it was US and Israeli only, they acted on the standing compartmentalized order and not the overall assessment of the situation.
So the US and Israel worry about pro-Iran 'Shia' groups, the Iranians worry about anti-Iranian Sunni groups and the odd "I'm Shia but I'm also Arab and I hate Persians more than I hate Sunnis"Are both sides hitting Iraq just in case? Sucks to be them
Iraq is nominally neutral, politically slightly pro Iran but functionally a free-for-all.
