APACHE JUNCTION AZ (IFS) -- In Qatar, the United States Armed Services also shares space with the Turkish military. US Special Forces are under fire in Northern Syria from Turkey's invasion into the Kurds territory, all military installations -- falls just one word short of a full out DEFCON 3.
With a DEFCON 1 alert, all military personnel is issued weapons and ammunition, fully cocked and loaded. Vice President Mike Pence heading to Turkey to ask them to stand down and imposing sanctions that do no good against them, as they do very little trading with the United States. Pence's request is like putting a band-aid on a shotgun wound.
President Trump's decision to give a "green light" to Turkey to commit genocide against the Kurds, has caused all of the gains that were made in the past five (5) years to be completely undone, as 10,000 Isis prisoners have escaped and are back in the population and are regrouping.
The Qatar Government has interjected their concerns and has warned both sides that a military conflict on its soil will not be tolerated. However, if a battle does break out among these giants, it is very little that it could do to stop it.
At present, Turkey houses over fifty nuclear missiles from the United States and is considering removing them from Turkey. However, Turkey's military is making it very difficult to remove these units, as it has closed all roads and airspace to the United States military making it hard to extract the US Special Forces units in the Northern Syria area.
The political and military friendship between Qatar and Turkey dates back more than a century when Ottoman troops set foot on Qatari lands to protect them from the fierce claws of British colonization. Now 150 years later, Turkish troops are once again welcomed by the Qataris, who see them as a source of force for stability and security
It was around some 150 years ago, in the late 1860s and towards the early 1870s, that Qatar was engulfed by the notorious threat of British colonization. Once a piece of land came to the attention of the British at the time, that was it. The colonialists would do their very best to blend the prey into the pot of the great empire.
Shaikh Mohammed bin Thani had already been forced to pay tremendous amounts of money to Bahrain in 1868, and Qatar was being weakened day by day through the strategy of the British. According to historians, Shaikh Mohammed bin Thani repeatedly expressed the necessity of letting the Ottoman Empire dispatch troops to Qatar to prevent an intervention in his country.
