Could it be Iraq? Or as some have suggested... is there another country in mind?

Right now, almost all the command and control facilities of U.S. Central Command are now located in Qatar, Kuwait, and other Gulf countries instead of Saudi Arabia. Don't forget we still have bases in Turkey as well (and the latter is a NATO country).
