Imagine if you knew what you were talking about. We have had agreements with Qatar to do this for years. They just moved it around.

We train foreign military pilots on USAF bases. We have done this forever. There are whole sides of bases on the training bases that are all foreigners from all over the world. This is not new.

It's not a foreign base they are hosting allied pilots. Tons of ally pilits train here. The Prince of Wales even trained in the US. This isn't uncommon.
This isn't a Qatari owned base on US soil.

Did you read the article? They're coming here for training on the jets that they buy from us.

Wonder if the citizens of Qatar ever ask why the US has had a base in their country for decades.

When I was at Sheppard in tech school we would go for dinner over to the chow hall for the foreign pilots because it was so much nicer.

you are a freaking idiot. Post less.
They are not building a foreign military base here. Did you read any news on it or just watch a TikTok short?
They are building a training facility at Mountain Home AFB to train Qatar pilots in the F-15.
You probably don't know that there is already a Singapore training facility on the same base.
I also know that you have never served as this is common on military bases. Maxwell AFB in Montgomery has a whole college level school to train foreign military officers.

Did you know the LARGEST US base in The middle east is in Qatar? What if they expelled our troops? Come on man. Think. 15 unarmed jets in the US vs THE LARGEST BASE IN THE MIDDLE EAST. Your entire thread is based on lack of knowledge.

I mean it is anti-american and there is no reason for a foreign entity to have a military presence in america
By that logic we should not have a presence in foreign countries.
You are an idiot, until you get out of your mom's basement, lose the weight and go enlist don't talk about the military as you know nothing about it.

Yeah these guys freaking about this have no clue.

They had a whole bunch of French navy training in Belle Chasse a few months back I drank with some of their sailors. Not just air force l.
But again. We have 750 foreign bases and 0 bases in the US for other nations.

Yea, the one at Sheppard had pilots from all over Asia, The ME and Europe. Their chow hall was huge and like a nice restaurant. The food was awesome there.

giving the foreign entity a base?
Well the way the article reads out is they will be hosted at our own base. Not be given a full sovereign base.
I could be wrong, but most likely you are wrong.
Posted on 10/10/25 at 2:13 pm to Jbird
Yep, you know exactly the chow hall I'm talking about.
Posted on 10/10/25 at 2:14 pm to MikkUGA
German chow halls are excellent as well btw

You haven't said anything of substance.
You misread an article and started bitching.
