Al Udeid Air Base is deserted and no one there was totally evacuated.

USA did remove most assets already from many basis, but not KSA.

Iran will not attack KSA and no reason to attack Qatar. It'll be disrespectful to attack Iraq but Iraq did nothing to stop Israeli jets from using its airspace... Syria will be fun to attack but too close to Israel so Israel might intercept.

His tweets about oil aee clear

He knows Iran is going to attack...he isn't tweeting nor has directed an attack preemptively.

Is the U.S ready to absorb the Iranian symbolic retaliation?

Iran is well past the point of "saving face" or establishing deterrence. Its leaders must surely realise that they are already in a difficult war with a dangerous and reckless adversary.

Retaliating against the US at this point serves no strategic purpose.

It is a huge gambit.

'We neither initiated this war nor wanted it, but we will never leave any aggression against Iran unanswered.

God is our protector.'

U.S. officials tell the Wall Street Journal that Iran is positioning missile launchers for a potential attack on American forces in the Middle East, in retaliation for the recent U.S. strikes on three nuclear sites.

A Western diplomat told Reuters there has been a credible Iranian threat against the US-run Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar since noon on Monday.

Good luck inshallah...may you make them regret the aggression on the great nation of Iran

If Al Udeid airbase in Qatar is the target that Iran has chosen, it seems that they are signalling an intent to deescalate with the US. Al Udeid was very publicly emptied over the last week or so. On June 5 there were approx 40 aircraft at the base, this morning, there is 1

We'll likely see a US response to the attack to get the last word in but it seems that (for now), the US' active role in this war is winding down.
