    “Basing locations. Geographical limitations are a reality. If you cannot launch attacks from close by your options will be much more limited”

    Last I checked they have bases etc in UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iraq, Oman, Jordan, Syria, then the scourge of the earth slightly further away.

    Was it part of the agreement that the US were leaving Saudi? Or am I missing something?

    Does that actually make a difference when they’re stationed in every other country in every direction? Even Iraq?

    If there’s background agreements that the US will remove their presence in Saudi then they’ve actually achieved something. Likewise if this is a step closer to ending the war they’ve achieved something. If the US and 'israel" go back to blasting them with everything they’ve got then I’m not convinced this helps in any way.
