“the enduring alliance between the United States and the State of Qatar”. You can’t make up this stuff.

The US has had a strategic alliance with Qatar since at least 1996. This alliance has recently been elevated to a "Major Non-NATO Alliance" (MNNA)

Since 1996, Qatar has hosted (and largely built) our largest strategic military base in the Middle East (housing 10,000 service men and women). This base is a cornerstone of our posture in the Middle East.

The US military base in Qatar also holds the US CENTCOM headquarters.

When did Qatar become an enemy?

“When did Qatar become an enemy?”

Folks on several threads seem to dislike Qatar.

Ask them.
