Even Obama is praising the peace deal. Seeing as he won a Nobel Peace Prize for doing absolutely nothing, he is sticking his nose in Trump’s deal hoping something might rub off. Of course Obama doesn’t mention Trump. Lmao.

must scroll down a bit for Obama’s article. Thanks cnn.

I didn’t do it. I don’t agree with this at all. They should send them to Dearborn. No one has even mentioned that.

This will never happen. Too much opposition. A stupid thought though.

What is he thinking?  This is no distraction.  This is  near and present danger.  We have a person overseeing the  Department of War who uses open channels to discuss Top secret information when he doesn’t know who is on the line.  Now we are courting and opening our country to well known supporters of Security Threat Groups..  Mat I hope you are right..

 Why did he not bring the idea in front of the house and senate?

Food for thought.  He is Teflon Don for a reason.

Glad to see you read my “Food for Thought” thread. Puts things in perspective.

I did some research and came up with this Google search:

While foreign countries do not own independent military bases on U.S. soil, it is common for foreign military personnel to be hosted at U.S. bases for training and joint operations
. For example, the United States has signed agreements with allies such as Qatar, Germany, and Singapore that allow them to use facilities at U.S. bases. 
These joint military training arrangements serve several purposes:
  • Interoperability They help allied nations standardize equipment and tactics to work more effectively together during joint military operations.
  • Combined Training They provide opportunities for combined training exercises, especially for air forces, that enhance strategic cooperation and technical expertise.
  • Host-nation agreements Similar to how the U.S. military operates bases in other countries, foreign militaries often negotiate agreements to use facilities on U.S. soil. 
 
Recent examples
  • Qatar: An October 2025 agreement allows the Qatari Emiri Air Force to establish a facility at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho to train pilots for F-15 fighter jets that Qatar purchased from the U.S..
  • Germany: The German Air Force has trained pilots at Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico since 1996 and has maintained a permanent presence for training at Fort Bliss, Texas, since 1956.
  • Singapore: The Republic of Singapore's 428th Fighter Squadron has been hosted at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho since 2008.
  • NATO: The Euro-NATO Joint Jet Pilot Training (ENJJPT) program at Sheppard Air Force Base in Texas has trained pilots from various NATO member nations since 1981.
  • Others: Other U.S. bases host training for foreign military personnel, including at Luke Air Force Base in Arizona, which has welcomed pilots from countries like Italy, Belgium, and the Netherlands. 
 
Historical Context
While most foreign military presence today is limited to these training arrangements, there have been historical instances of foreign powers having a military foothold on what is now U.S. soil:
  • During the colonial era, European powers like Great Britain, France, and Spain all maintained military fortifications and troops in territories that later became part of the United States.
  • During World War II, many foreign military forces, particularly from allied nations, trained and operated on U.S. territory. The U.S. also housed numerous prisoner-of-war camps for enemy combatants.

It is a training facility - we have done it before with others,

Absolutely no place for it in our country. How in the world would this benefit us? Excluding the gifted jet. And doing before with others was probably a mistake as well.

Building a relationship with an ally in the middle east is not a bad thing. They built an air force base and let us use it. That would come in handy if we needed it due to a conflict. Also training their military would hopefully put less of our troops in harms way if something broke out in the middle east.  Lets face it, the middle east is a time bomb.

Doesn’t seem like a new concept.

We didn’t bring Iraq to the U.S. nor did we bring Afghanistan.  We went there to train there soldiers.  Qatar is a proven supporter of Muslim terrorist.  Hence, the reason for Israel bombing inside there territory.

Didn’t say I liked it, just seems we’ve done this type of thing before.

Did you complain then?

I’ll be honest with you, our open borders where we had no idea who was streaming into this country was much more concerning than a controlled scenario like this.

Like I said, not saying I agree with it, don’t know anything about it yet.

And I never feel attacked, lol.

@DCT

-1991 - Helped us in Gulf War

-1996 - Let us set up an airbase in their country (largest we have in the middle east)

-2001 - after 911 they were a key player in counterterrorism..... 

Why can't we set up a training base for them like we have done for other ally countries?

Us having training/military bases in the Arab region is a benefit to those countries. Having a Muslim base in our country is a mistake and has no benefit. To think we can trust any lslamic military on our soil is asinine. Trojan Horse?

For the same reasons we are currently deporting so many people out of the country as we speak.  I don’t know it may be just bad timing.  Mind you we currently have US soldiers patrolling our cities.
