no
many of the leading arab leaders have ASKED the us to ATTACK iran.
there is a difference between the two.
the fact that they don't like each other isn't new (its the middle east, nobody likes anyone)
the fact that its now public information that they made attempts to attack Iran via a third party - is likely to cause problems in the future.
exposing this fact publicly might well lead to an escalation in the future.
especially if Iran does turn nuclear some day.

diplomacy in the middle east requires tact, balance, and double talk.
and these documents fly in the face of all that.
