NBC report: President Donald Trump's decision to cancel his plan to assist ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz was made after Saudi Arabia suspended the American military's ability to use its bases and airspace for the operation.

According to the report, Trump surprised the Gulf allies by announcing "Project Freedom" on social media on Sunday afternoon, which sparked anger among the leadership in Saudi Arabia. In response, the kingdom informed the United States that it would not allow the American military to operate aircraft from Prince Sultan Air Base southeast of Riyadh or to fly through Saudi airspace to support the operation. A phone call between the country leaders also did not help.

Diplomacy is no achieved on social media

Wars are not won on social media

President Trump will issue a threat against Iran and subsequently tweet that, at the request of Pakistan, he has extended it. This represents a regrettable repetition.

Where are those who claimed that Israel dictated the terms? Why are they not referencing Pakistan?

President Trump about Iran:
We are negotiating with the Iranians.

Today we took three of our destroyers and passed them through major obstacles and severely defeated them. The destroyers were unharmed.

People were unharmed but they were shooting at us and we responded to them, and our firepower was much stronger than theirs and we severely defeated them. They sank many small boats.

President Trump on Iran:
We will not allow them to have nuclear weapons.

There is no chance, and they know it and have agreed to it.

Let's see if they are willing to sign it or not.

Marco Rubio on Iran:

The Islamic Republic now claims ownership — that it has the right to control an international waterway. They claim the right to control it. What is the world supposed to do about this? Will the world accept that the Islamic Republic now controls an international waterway?

Because if the world is ready to accept this, then be prepared because about 10 other countries will also start doing the same on international waterways near their own countries.

This is an unacceptable issue that they are trying to normalize.
