If the denied access prevents the U.S. from making the Middle Eastern situation into World War III, more power to the Persian Gulf powers. From Ilya Tsukanov at sputnikglobe.com:
Going back to the Gulf War in 1991, the US has depended on regional allies for large-scale military operations across the Middle East. Now, as tensions between Israel and Iran rise and the US-led unipolar world order comes under strain, America’s traditional partners are apparently refusing to walk in lock step with Washington.
Persian Gulf countries have reportedly told the United States not to launch any attacks against Iran from their territory or airspace amid seething regional tensions.
Sources, including a senior US official told the Middle East Eye that Gulf monarchies have been “working overtime” on the diplomatic track “to shut down avenues that could link them to a US reprisal against Tehran or its proxies from bases inside their kingdoms.”
The countries include regional heavyweights Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, and Kuwait, with their leaderships reportedly “raising questions” on the details of US basing agreements, and taking steps to prevent the use of their Iran-adjacent bases against the Islamic Republic.
NATO member Turkiye has also reportedly barred the US from using its airspace for strikes against Iran, but Sputnik has not been able to independently verify this information.
These things happen in a bridge too far stealy biggs coop de tah and you have an elderly Forrest Gump in the role of Dear Leader.
This profoundly sick (h/t-Aldous) society probably gets a kick out of the elder abuse.
Good good, stand up to Hegemony Cricket as there as been enough KIA for one decade.
