Qatar Builds Secret Air Base In Idaho, MAGA Suddenly Furious

In a move that sounds like the start of a bizarre buddy comedy, Qatar is setting up a new air force facility at Mountain Home Airbase, Idaho, to house its $12 billion fleet of 36 F-15 jets. This small desert nation can barely stretch its airspace for pilot training, so they aim to borrow some vast American skies – irony being, they're literally building from scratch on U.S. soil, a rarity even for close allies. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and his Qatari counterpart unveiled this during a Fri morning announcement that promptly sent Laura Loomer and fellow MAGA stars into outrage mode. The deal was quietly brewing since the Biden days and was supposed to debut in Trump's May Doha visit but contractors dragged their feet. Meanwhile, Singaporeans and dozens of other countries already train here, making Idaho the weirdest F-15 trafficker on the planet.

Qatar building its own air force base in Idaho because apparently flying fighter jets over flat desert isn’t challenging enough. Meanwhile, MAGA freaks out over secret 'foreign invasion' inside U.S. borders. Meanwhile in Reality: It’s just ‘Hey can we borrow your backyard?’

Turns out you can’t just pilot an F-15 over endless sand dunes and call it training. So Qatar’s building in Idaho where apparently U.S. airspace is the adult-sized playground. MAGA’s meltdown is the only thing that’s flat here.

Qatar’s $12 billion F-15 party just rented America for pilot practice. If you thought the Pentagon’s silence was suspicious, wait till MAGA tweets about 'foreign invaders building secret bases' 3000 miles away from Qatar.
