If this is your concern you need to be rallying about ICE and mass deportation on a scale unfathomable to most, reinvoke citizenship, etc.

There is real concern about this. Not whatever this air exercise with the Qataris I guarantee they do this all the time together on our air base there

Its a barracks and they will likely have classes there too. They won't even have armed jets. You are being a moron. We have trained foreign troops on our soil since the Spanish American War era.

Let's just say that I have not forgotten the story of the Trojan horse. Besides, it's too early to say with 100% certainty that Iran is down and out.



You know we're military allies with Germany and Japan?

You guys are terribly blind. Qatar is no friend of ours. Qatar has not changed its ways. On this move I cannot support it and it will backfire on our president.

Dude you are aware there’s nuclear subs all around the world at all times yes? It’s not impossible one could hit pretty far into the US if it was so inclined by Russia or China (I’m not sold on how good their tech is since they’re a lot more secretive about theirs than we are.) Also there’s likely some type of cartel infrastructure or operation in and around wherever you live.

My point is there are way larger things to melt down about than a few foreign armed fighter jets training with us on our soil.

In April the Trump Org announced a deal to build a golf course in Qatar, then they donated a jet to his library. Now they’re building a military base here.


They aren’t building a military base, dummy. They are being trained. Like we do for dozens of nations for decades. Stop being such a gullible moron.

Wait, have you been acting like an idiot this whole time then are trying to jab at me?
Yes planes are trained unarmed and when they are armed and on the range its under strict protocols.
So yes the 15 jets won't be armed. No need for the stupid emoji you've already proven to be an idiot in this thread.

That's 'dudette' to you!

The whole point is that this arrangement was not clearly presented in the sources available to me and the wording made it sound like Qatar had just bought themselves a base in the US. Given that nothing surprises me anymore, I was alarmed!

It's for training for all the F15's we sold them. It's common and has been for a very long time. It's not just airforce either we've been running Malaysians through Seal Training for a long arse time for one. Not to mention NATO stuff.

Wait until they find out Germany and Japan have soldiers in the US training. Oh no our enemies on our soil.

Well, let's just say, you HAVE forgotten how to think critically.

The facility to be built at Mountain Home AFB will host a contingent of Qatari F-15s.

Qatar has a total of 36 fricking F-15s in their entire AF.

Mountain Home AFB is home to about 60 US F-15s.

Nevermind the US has over 1,000 fighter aircraft based in CONUS bases alone.

What kind of Trojan horsing around do you think is even remotely possible when the Qatar aircraft will NOT have live fire capabilities?

As long as they are kept at arms' length and closely watched, especially on our territory.
