    We don’t even have an Israeli air force base.

    We have no foreign bases.

    If I’m wrong about that this is the first I’m hearing of it in the 30 years of whatever the fuck this not reality experience is.

      Singapore has had a contingent in Mountain Home since 2008. They train on F-15s.

      The Qatar deal is similar it just seems they are going to have their own facility unlike Singapore which is embedded with the 428th fighter squadron.

      It is my understanding that this isn’t the Qatar government building an airbase in Idaho but a facility inside a US base in Idaho.
