International Qatari air base in Idaho?

Any angle on what the compensation is? Just a truckload of dinars?
In May 2025, during a summit with the U.S., Qatar made several major financial commitments, including:
  • A $500 billion investment pledge over the next 10 years, focused on strategic sectors like artificial intelligence, energy, and infrastructure.
  • $243.5 billion in immediate deals, such as a $96 billion purchase by Qatar Airways for Boeing aircraft and GE Aerospace engines.
  • A $1.2 trillion "economic exchange" over the next decade, a broader and less specific figure that includes both investments and trade.

That would do it.
 
Training their fighters? We have a large base in Qatar. Why can't we train them there? I see no reason for them to be on American soil.
It looks like they don't have the airspace for training (size of Connecticut). Apparently we also train Singapore pilots here already as well.

Honestly, I don't see the harm with this. If they are going to be a strong ally in the region I see it as a good thing. More swinging dicks so we can throw our weight around.
 
Me neither. Its a training facility so they can train on the F-15. But why not send our guys there to train them?
We've been training foreign military on bases on our soil forever.

Hell there was an active shooter on either an AF or NAB family by a foreign student a few years back.

I've personally trained probably over 100 folks from different allied countries coast guards/navies/marine patrols when I was at a training command
 
What's funny is you guys are ok with the USA having military air bases everywhere in the world, including Qatar. Can't make this shit up lol.
 
What's with MTG? I don't know much about her, other than she got dicked by her gym trainer. Thought she was a maga Trump loyalist to the core. What happened?
She's a weirdo who thinks Jewish space lasers are out to get us but she's really gone rogue on the Epstein debacle and healthcare with the GOP shutdown. I'll never be her fan but she's at least not towing the line like the majority of the fingers in their ears mob.

Very cool stuff brotha. Yeah after reading that Qatar doesnt have the airspace for training and we do the same for Singapore here I'm more open to the idea. What type of training did you provide? Pilot?

Too late... we are gifting her to you guys haha

She is going rogue because Trump refused to back her for a Senate run. She realized she was not going to go forward riding the Trump train so she is repositioning herself.

Shes out there for sure. Shes like our Maxine Waters. She has been pushing the palestinian issue and beating the drums including trying to get funding pulled from Israel though. So shes come around on some things.

This made me look up Maxine Waters. Her father's name was Remus. You don't hear that one much anymore.

Only heard it associated with Rome and Uncle Remus from Song of the South. That is an odd name.

Whoa, didn't know that. I know he didn't years ago but after her Jan 6th sucking up he endorsed her. Red seats have been turning blue recently so who knows, lol.

Not that hard to figure out why one would be weird and not the other.

It would be like Venezuela setting up military bases inside of China.

Use your brain, son!
 
Afro think tank vs It's Pat. Wild times indeed.


He was mostly lolinh about idahos reaction amd the second part is a CNN segment but thanks for posting.

That said, she glosses over the multiple business dealings woth Trump, Kushner, and one of hia (Trump's) sons and interchanges "base" and "facility" at the end after making it a point to distinguish the two. She also says the experts don't wanna go over there to train them but we already have a base there long with dozens of other countries; hundreds of bases. We have military personnel all over the globe including a base in Qatar so that makes no sense. Regardless, I'll look into it more
