How about that new Qatari air force base...in Idaho???

[Rebel5soul]

Hold it!!!!!

The "progressives" are bitching because the Qatari's are Muslim AND brown.

BIGOTED RACISTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Spot on.

This is SOP for the USAF and this base in particular.

IDK if it's still the case but Ft.Bragg had a whole detachment of Thai paratroopers there for some time, I know they did a lot of work with the USMC out at Pendleton too and were pretty widely respected. Numerous Euro-UN units rotating through Campbell and Benning, same thing.

Euro fighter Typhoons were taking off out of NAS Pensecola the other day, at least 3 flights of 2. Those weren't ours!!!

I can only assume MOST bases/posts that aren't of a totally sensitive nature have or have had and are open to some kind of exchange/integration/international compenent.

LOL....it's literally the only possible reason they're upset about it. What a bunch of racist.

During my active service days I trained a LOT of foreign troops. The ones I really liked working with were the Germans. They got a monthly beer allotment shipped in and they shared. The S. Koreans were there during the Winter and they buried their Kimchi pots in the hedges around their barracks.

The Luftwaffe has had a presence at Ft. Bliss since the 60’s at least, and probably earlier. That’ll make the crazed Killer Furry dems foul the bed!

Our Radicalized dem bedwetters on here don’t understand that this has been not only doctrine since ‘61 but by act of congress; The Foreign Assistance Act, signed into law by President JFK. A president whose ideas would be considered right wing by our Killer Furry standards.

They would flat out reject him as a modern democrat....they would call him a Nazi.

"Ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country" - Have you ever read a more fascistic MAGA quote??? That's straight up NAZI NATIONALIST EVIL!!!

I'm not even gonna take a side. Just wondering what everybody thinks?

Joe Biden thinks it’s a good idea.

The Qatar facility specifically has been in the works for several years; a 2022 announcement from Mountain Home Air Force Base, published while President Joe Biden was in office, provided the results of an environmental assessment looking at the “potential impacts associated with the beddown of a US-led Qatar Emiri Air Force F-15QA squadron” at the base.

The “beddown” is facilities for the training squadron’s operations, the US official said, providing space for the pilots to train, brief, do their scheduling, and more. The countries who send pilots as part of this program provide the US funds through foreign military sales to build the facilities, the official added, and the military hires community labor around the bases to build them out.

The final environmental impact report published in 2022 said it was for “the beddown of 12 F-15QA permanently assigned QEAF aircraft and associated equipment, use of the Mountain Home Air Force Base airfield and special use airspace and military training routes for training, use of defensive countermeasures and ordnance, approximately 300 additional QEAF and United States Air Force personnel, and the construction and modification of facilities and infrastructure needed to support the beddown.”

They're not bitching at all. They're pointing out something that would normally have maga fucks raising hell (loomer is literally losing her shit over it) to demonstrate that "of their guy does it, it's not a big deal"

Just as the lawfare which was considered bad behavior during the Biden years and now is acceptable to MAGA fucks.

A lie on both points.

(loomer is literally losing her shit over it) to demonstrate that "of their guy does it, it's not a big deal"

She's showing just how disingenuous and hypocritical the left is being.

And EVIL FASCISM to the people who were just chanting "NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW!!!" while they started the Lawfare War of 2020 LOL

It's only fascist when NOT democrats do it!!

Nope

She's showing just how disingenuous and hypocritical the left is being.

Of course

You seem upset.

Dems hate lawfare when they’re on the receiving end.

Wasn't Rubbery's post implying the airbase would come under Sharia law?

 

[DeluxAuto]

There's no "taking sides" here. The corrupt president was given a gift and this is how he is returning the favor. Nothing more than that.

Yes.

Define "lawfare."

It’s not a separate base, it’s a training facility constructed within an existing U.S. Air Force installation. The purpose is to accommodate Qatari Air Force personnel, who are U.S. allies and purchasers of American aircraft. They’ll receive instruction there on flight operations, maintenance procedures, and tactical employment of their F-15QA fighters. The training also ensures they can operate effectively in alignment with U.S. Air Force doctrine and joint mission standards. We do this with all of our allies who purchase our weapon systems.

BabyBoobs "thinks" an environmental report from 2022 is proof of…"something"???



Meanwhile:

DonOld sold fighter jets to the Qataris in 2017! and initiated the plan for the Qatari facility at Mountain Home AFB in that same year.



Also:

A fuckton has transpired since the "infamous 2022 environmental report" during President Biden’s administration (10/7, 2023 happened, and Qatars involvement with Hamas has been fully exposed, - not to mention DonOld’s 400 MILLION DOLLAR QATARI JET (gift / bribe) SCANDAL).



BabyBoobs has ZERO idea what President Biden (OR a President Harris) would have done / would do in the CURRENT situation with the CURRENT facts in evidence.



Also:

Search Assist

“President Biden has expressed frustration with Qatar for its support of Hamas, particularly in light of the ongoing conflict and the challenges in securing a hostage deal. His administration has faced difficulties in holding Qatar accountable for its ties to Hamas while trying to navigate the complex dynamics of the region”



President Biden was NOT a fan of the Qataris THEN, and he is undoubtedly less a fan of the Qataris NOW.



Bottom line:

The Qatari facility in the U.S. may very well have been cancelled if President Biden or Vice President Harris had won the 2024 election; full stop.

Laz the Spaz sure seems to be fixated on minors. "BabyBoobs???"

 

[icanhelp1]

Yes.

US bases have been used to train foreigners for decades. We even trained Iranian pilots on the F-14Ts at MIRAMAR.

Mountain Home air base will be a joint training facility.
What is the big fucking deal about this issue?
