Saudi officials were angered by President Donald Trump’s surprise announcement that the U.S. would start guiding ships through the [Strait of Hormuz](https://www.nbcnews.com/nightly-news/video/iran-attacks-oil-tankers-in-strait-of-hormuz-262699077577), fearing the move could spur more Iranian attacks on Gulf allies and reignite the conflict, two U.S. officials said.
[NBC News reported this week](https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/trumps-abrupt-u-turn-plan-re-open-strait-hormuz-came-backlash-allies-rcna343845) that Washington launched the operation without notifying key Gulf allies first.
In response, the Kingdom informed the U.S. it would not allow the U.S. military to fly aircraft from Prince Sultan Airbase southeast of Riyadh or fly through Saudi airspace to support the effort, the officials said. Trump[ paused the operation ](https://www.nbcnews.com/world/iran/us-iran-war-trump-open-hormuz-attacks-ships-ceasefire-rcna343604)36 hours after it was started, and the airspace was reopened.
Is anyone of any competence in the White House anymore? Does no one know anything about how the world works? Is it all just vibes now?
This entire operation would have been successful had Trump spent a couple of months forming a coalition. 90% of the problems are due to this
Like not allowing the US to use their airspace kept them from being attacked before.
