The United States' allies in the Middle East are standing by the White House, despite Iran's retaliatory attacks following the U.S. and Israel's killing of Iran's Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and top officials. Iran has targeted neighboring Gulf states, including Qatar, where the largest U.K. military base is located.
