1990 Gulf War is actually an example of the Saudi Arabians asking for coalition troops to defend them.

Regarding 1990, nonetheless, prolonged U.S. presence in Saudi Arabia after the Gulf War became highly controversial though, fueling anti-American sentiment.
And the US left.
Also, if there's one thing that the House of Saud has made apparent, it's that they don't much care about what their subjects consider controversial.
