If you know one thing about Saudi Arabia/Qatari relations, then you would understand the two Arab nations don't technically get along. The strange part about this is that these joint drills between Turkey, Qatar, and the United States leaves Saudi Arabia out of the military drills. With this drill not involving Saudi Arabia but involving Qatar instead, is this a little hint that President Trump has a goal of ending the relationship between the United States and Saudi Arabia?
These joint drills with Qatar and Turkey make you wonder if Trump is pulling out of Saudi Arabia, because this drill is in the area of Saudi Arabia but they are not involved. Now this could mean nothing, but Saudi Arabia not involved in this drill is a possible hint of Trump's true intentions with Saudi Arabia.
