Let’s first establish that Qatar is not building a new base in the US. They are funding an expansion of an existing US facility used to train F-15 pilots. And second, Qatar isn’t interested in those Idaho potatoes, they’re looking for something a bit more nuanced.

Qatar and the US don’t see eye-to-eye on most things, but both countries are willing to overlook those differences in favor of what they could gain from the relationship. The US maintains basing rights in Qatar for CENTCOM. Qatar gets some sweet and tasty leverage.

Washington, once again, finds itself in a political and ethical gray zone with another misaligned country in the Middle East.
