Does KSA have american base where they hv placed its army?

Question

iran has threatened to attack all american army bases around it if it is attacked by usa. i heard there is one in bahrain. is there one in the eastern province?

Answer 1

There are rumors that there is a US army base in Saudi Arabia. But this is wrong. The US has an army base during the Desert War or what we call in Saudi the “Gulf War”. But the Americans moved their army few years after the war. During the war in Iraq, the US army ask the permission from the Saudi government to attack Iraq from the Saudi side, but King Abdullah refused this request. So, the American had to attack Iraq from Kiewit, Qatar and Bahrain.

So the answer is NO. There is no American army in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Answer 2

The US used to use Eastern province for their base, but they moved to a more discrete location out in the middle of nowhere in Saudi...
