More Trump grift.

“an emailed statement to Newsweek, Al-Ansari stressed that “this will not be a Qatari air base.”

“Rather, Qatar has made an initial 10-year commitment to construct and maintain a dedicated facility within an existing US air base”

Qatari Air Force facility update: Official clarifies status and plans

Plans for the facility date back to 2017 when the U.S. agreed to train Qatari pilots to use new F-15 fighter jets.

PEDOPOTUS got a 400million$ bribe from a country that has harbored terrorists for years
Is that normal to you?
SecDef/WAR! is an idiot

Okay here's a thought. Idaho is full of right-wingers, militias, and magats.
Qatar building an air base in the state gives them a completely off-the-books way to get weapons and supplies into the U.S. unnoticed. Sleep well.

So far Qatar has given him a beater plane and the right to build a 5.5 billion dollar resort in their country so he gave them permission to learn how to fly our jets on our soil. Let's just hope they don't pick any of our buildings this time?

Has nothing at all to do with the Trump business dealings or Kushner's tie in with QIA who gave Affinity partners $1.5b in capital. No quid pro quo there. Something stinks, apart from Trump's diapers

They did Idaho because thats the state with the most cult members per capital.

Meaning magats are easily manipulated and they know it.

They'll kill their own children with smiles on their faces to appease the dictator,and they actually are by indoctrination into far-right gun culture.

Globally military from various countries are with feet on ground in other countries; in the event a situation arises they are closer to it time wise. But a training base by an outside country within soil of another country is not common. See N Korea, China, Russia airbases in USA? Not YET…

I don’t give TWO SHITS if you think it’s perfectly fine to have a Qatari air base in Idaho!! I DO NOT TRUST A SINGLE THING FROM THIS REGIME.

I'm just pointing out that those men were trained here and used their training to murder thousands. Those humans were of many races, religions, ethnicities. They were not from allie countries. It makes more sense to deliver the F-15s to Qatar and have us train them there.

Supposedly, its so Qatari pilots can be trained to fly jets we are selling them. All I can think about is the 9/11 hijackers who were trained how to pilot commercial jets on American soil. How short memories are.

This unwell man, who was President of the United States, is trying to rewrite history.

Nice try, Don. Biden wasn’t president on January 6, 2021. I would say even his own voters can’t be this gullible, but…
