What's in it for America?  What are we getting from these Hamas lovers?

Once a muslim sets foot on a piece of territory, they consider it theirs forever. So now we are carving out a piece of the US for muslims to do as they chose - the base will echo with prayer calls all day long. While Hegseth says no more DEI, this stupid, idiotic move certainly smacks of it big time, over the top DEI.

More chants of death to Jews, more mosques, more loud speaker calls to prayer. This way the Qutter-snipes can protect muslim enclaves around the country from the air.

Just a stones throw from Malmstrom AFB and strategic forces in the area.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

We are NOT building a Qatari military base in Idaho. We’re going to train their pilots. Period. We’ve been doing it for decades. I went to USAF pilot training and we had Saudis and Iranians flying with us

Training pilots?  What could possibly go wrong?  9-11 ring a bell?

Big difference between training allied (ostensibly) fighter pilots and flying large commercial jets. Jus'
 sayin'. And we have worked with air forces worldwide we expect to be flying with in the event of hostilities.

This is all about the protection of the Emir of Qatar, his family and close associates.

More like what happened in Pensacola when some poor Muzzie trainee got all butthurt because our guys gave him the call sign "Porn Stash".
