Oh no. Why do Republicans - Bushes, Trump, Vance - love Arabs so much? I don’t get it.
Have they lost their rocker???
Chobani needs a fighter squadron?
There’s a criminal investigation in Israel right now called “Qatargate” it’s about Qatari money going to aides of Benjamin Netanyahu.
The big unanswered question was Bibi on the take too?
Qatar’s money talks to everyone and it supports Turkey and Erdogan too.
. The truth is that Qatar follows the Saudi's lead and is a Saudi proxy in the Middle East so if Trump seals the deal with the Saudis then Qatar follows. On a practical note, the US is making a major purchase of F-15s that are basically an enhanced version the Qatar variant of the F-15.
I get the impression that Trump and Hegseth are setting this up to get Qatar to underwrite the costs of the USAF transitioning into the new Silent Eagle
Smart move, actually given our massive budget constraints combined with our need to re invest in B-21, F47 and the collaborative drone programs.
. .
Yeah, no.
What’s wrong with Arabs?
Are you racist?
We do this for other countries. The Germans conduct much of their flying training is in New Mexico. Singapore conducts a lot of training out of Guam.
None of these countries have large areas where pilots can train hard and fully work thier capabilities. We have the room, and we get reimbursed for portions of the costs.
All three countries host U.S. bases and pay significant portions of their upkeep.
Having performed contract work up there in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s, I expect it will be a complete cultural shock to those young men. An extremely cold climate, especially when the north wind blows, and a town with many LDS church members. But unless liquor laws have been liberalized, only beer and wine at grocery stores and the hard stuff at state liquor control stores. City activities are in Boise just under an hour’s drive to the west.
A: Follow the money
It’s all grift and corruption and feathering one’s own private nest with this crowd
Actually, I’m here briefly to check in on FR and watch all of the silence or lukewarm opposition from FReepers to such an outrage whereas 15 or 20 years ago this would’ve been a 400 post FR thread with extreme outrage over this violation of our national sovereignty.
(And it is •••• I •••• who have changed??! )
Congressional hearings and bipartisan approval needed!
There shouldn’t even BE a “Qatari Air Force.”
Sounds like a take on the ENJJPT (Euro-NATO Joint Jet Pilot Training) program at Sheppard AFB, falls under the Foreign Military Sales program.
Trump’s building a golf course in Qatar.
He accepted a $400M luxury jet as a gift from Qatar.
His son-in-law got a $1.5B investment from Qatar and other Middle Eastern countries.
His top officials like Kash Patel and Pam Bondi worked for Qatar (registered foreign agents, FARA)
And now this.
Follow the money.
“The thing about money, Bud, is it makes you do things you don’t wanna do “… Hal Holbrooke as Charlie Sheen’s Wall Street boss in “Wall Street”
China probably owns land close to this Idaho base so they can spy for their jihadi allies.
So that Qatar can annihilate Israel?
INSANE!
That’s funny.
Twin Falls as an Arab outpost.
Don’t tell the Mormons.
Islam is a war plan
Yup.
The Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar is the largest US military base in the Middle East.
It would seem like a pretty snotty thing to do to not allow Qataris to train here in the US.
