As you may or may have heard, Saudi Arabia's royal government rejected
U.S. request to use Saudi air bases for the purpose of launching aerial
sorties on Iraq.

However....

Despite Saudi's refusal, the U.S. is still going to mobilize still further
for war in Iraq.
They plan to use Qatar bases instead to launch aerial assaults in Iraqi
targets.
