This gets more bizarre every day.

They are building a training facility (classrooms, admin buildings and hangers) at Mountain Home AFB to train pilots on the F15s we are selling them. It’ll be similar to the training facility built for the Singapore AF at Mountain Home when we sold them their F15s.

Glad we're getting the real story. I wonder if wingnuts ever self-correct on the web forums and twitter-type places they visit, or do false interpretations always get spread and allowed to stand unchallenged when they reflect badly on the left, no matter how ludicrous?

My guess would be typically the latter.

That's why I love DU....balance always get restored.

Icing on the crap cake, is it will take $1B to retrofit the flying gilded paper tiger.

Traitors are running the government. Anything that makes that more clear is a net positive.

They are building a facility on a base which several other countries already have at different US installations around the country It is part of a deal, negotiated by President Biden, not some quid pro quo.

In any case, what does it matter? Are we concerned a few Qatari pilots are going to take over Idaho?

And we're allowing them to build an airport inside our borders?

It must be true that money can buy this Administration.

How did the media screw that up?

It's just for training their pilots to fly the planes we sold to them. Except I'm sure Trump and other corrupt administration officials will be making a bunch of money from it. Bribes, kickbacks, and if course the golden jet Trump already got.

Flaunting ownership of exclusive military air bases in the US?

Mansions in Beverly Hills and department stores in London are so pedestrian in the 21st century!

Let's let the MAGATs have their own freakout by themselves, shall we?
And not misstate the facts... they can do that without our help.

action if it happens.

Merchants of Death and Oil, which amount to the same thing.
