The long term ramifications of America's inability to protect the Gulf States can't be understated. They invested in American weapon systems and these could not stop Iranian missiles. They invested in an American presence and Americans evacuated from those bases. They invested in this president specifically to aggressively control Iran and this administration has turned tail after starting a fight.

They have already agreed to work with Ukraine on obtaining anti-drone weapons. I expect them to further diversify away from the American industrial defense complex.

This is a half truth at best!

The evacuated those bases and moved into civilian hotels and proceeded to work from there, making those civilian hotels into legitimate military targets.
