Yeah otherwise it's some serious taking others for stupid behavior on Saudi Arabia's part, making a non-aggression pact without expelling or at least making legal exceptions for foreign bases effectively grants those bases invulnerability. If Mexico hypothetically starting allowing to China to send over loads of troops and build tons of military bases, and then later China attacks the US from those bases, then the US would obviously view that as an act of war on Mexico's part.
