Qatar isn't building a base. We're constructing space for them on an existing base in Idaho to train F-15 pilots. This is normal. Pensacola Naval Air Station trains allied pilots from all over the world. I've seen them IRL.
I think it's adorable that you think reality matters.
Laura Loomer has already condemned to action, and I'm pretty sure she's not the sort to let facts get in her way.
But thanks for clarifying the situation for those of us who can handle facts.
I cannot parse that mess of a comment. In case you change it:
She condemned to [sic] action, she's a liar, she's telling the truth on this one. ?
No idea what that fruitcake has to do with any of this. Can you point to a non-factual anything in my comment? Cut out any bit you like. Show me where the lie touched you. Don't insinuate anything! Reply to the words I stated.
I think dagwood there is agreeing with you, but saying that you present the facts as though the propagandists might correct the narrative if they understood. Dagwood thinks that’s naiive, and trots out Loomer as an example of the bullshit at work.
How’d I do?
That's exactly what I meant.
Whew! Took my dumbass a minute, and an explanation to parse that. Still a little confused.
OP made a false statement which I corrected. No, facts don't matter in the wider world, but they mostly do around here. I mean, this place isn't exactly FaceBook.
Read SreudianFlip's comment. They explain things nicely
I'll point out that I got some upvotes, so there are people who understood what I wrote.
On the other hand, you're the only one who is complaining about ambiguity.
I’m sure the very public and blatant bribery and corruption had nothing to do with this. Stop justifying the actions of the most corrupt administration in history. Please
Well, yeah, giving Trump a crappy plane that will cost more to bring up to snuff than it's worth was obvious bribery. So, what's the exact issue with training these particular allies on an American base? As I stated, this is normal.
Ikr, both country loves slavery. Nothing should be stopping these salvers dictators from becoming best buddies. Maybe next you can bring some Taliban over to train them, you already train with IDF, what's another authoritarian state funding extremists, am I right?
My point stands, on paper we are allies, said paper signed by Biden.
And the Taliban/terrorist angle is silly, and borderline racist. I'm no fan of any Muslim nation, but I asked for issues, not speculative fiction.
I didn’t know f-15s were still in service—I thought it was f-35s?
