Our "allies" the Saudis just said NO to US troops or US airbases for any Iraqi intervertion.

JIDDAH, Saudi Arabia (AP) Saudi Arabia has made clear to Washington publicly and privately that the U.S. military will not be allowed to use the kingdom's soil in any way for an attack on Iraq, Foreign Minister Prince Saud said Wednesday...
Saudi Arabia invited U.S. troops for the 1991 Gulf War to help defend the oil-rich nation against Iraqi forces.
