Peloni: This is an important context to the massive arms sale to Qatar.

It is absolutely not accidental that President Trump delivers a speech at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, the USA’s largest military base in the middle east, with a backdrop of an MQ-9B Reaper Drone on stage.
Hours earlier President Trump signed a deal for Qatar to purchase new MQ-9B drones. The U.S. gave initial approval for that purchase in March. However, not a single pundit or military expert can explain exactly why the nation state of Qatar would need Reaper Drones. The USA operates the base providing support and protection for Qatar and the region (Qatar pays for it). Qatar is not in conflict with any other nation state; they are not at war, and they do not conduct military engagements. So, why does Qatar need the drones?
The unfortunate Occam’s Razor answer is that Qatar doesn’t technically use the drones, instead what the drone delivery represents is a carveout to supply the CIA with military-grade hardware for use in alternate engagements; likely engagements that are never technically ‘on the record.’ President Trump is ¹equipping the CIA.
¹There is factual and documented evidence of how these transactions take place. Indeed, the entire Benghazi, Libya, boondoggle around the unofficial “consulate” office of former Ambassador Chris Stephens, the CIA Annext located nearby and all of the activity therein, was directly and specifically an effort by the CIA under the guise of the State Dept., to retrieve surface to air missiles given to al-Qaeda (AQIM) in Libya that were being used to shoot at U.S. military helicopters in the region. The Benghazi ‘coverup’ was all about hiding this reality from the American people.
The State Dept (CIA) used Qatar as a carveout to purchase shoulder-fired missiles, that were then distributed by the CIA to “the Libyan rebels” (Leon Panetta and Hillary Clinton operation). However, those same CIA missiles were later used against American troops. The CIA was repurchasing those weapons to get them out of the hands of al-Qaeda, that’s what the Annex was for. AQIM didn’t like it, so they attacked both the consulate and the annex. That was the reason for the Benghazi coverup operation {GO DEEP}.
The drones will not be used by the nation of Qatar, nor do they have the support systems, targeting, satellite communications etc. to use them. No, these drones will be launched and operated by USA elements, specifically the CIA – not the Qataris.
So, when the question is asked, who exactly is the Qatar purchase of MQ-9B Reaper Drones intended to benefit, the unfortunate answer is our superseding fourth branch of government; in whatever capacity they alone deem worthy.
