Trump to fly to Ireland on Qatari gift plane

Trump to use $400M Qatari gift plane for international trips despite security concerns

The decision comes after Trump said in July that the plane would be taken out of service and ‘maxed out’ with additional security upgrades

President Donald Trump plans to fly to Ireland next week on the Boeing 747 donated by Qatar, despite concerns over its security and unfinished upgrades, a senior White House official told The Independent.

The trip, set for September 12 and 13, will mark Trump’s first international journey on the Qatari jet since U.S. officials secretly moved him to another plane while departing July’s NATO summit in Turkey after intelligence indicated a potential Iranian threat.

“We don’t comment on specific upgrades or modifications to Air Force One,” a senior administration official told The Independent. “We maintain a consistent posture that ensures a safe, secure, and reliable capability for the President of the United States and routinely evolve the capability as required to maintain that posture.”

The jet has undergone hundreds of millions of dollars in modifications, including upgrades to its security and communications systems. But security experts raised questions to The New York Times over whether it has all the advanced defensive capabilities of the older presidential aircraft, which are equipped to protect the president from threats including missiles.

New Air Force One gift from Qatar

New Air Force One arrives to serve White House resident

'This is considered the world's most luxurious plane'

A Boeing 747-8 has arrived to serve as Air Force One for the resident of the White House.

The $400 million luxury jet is a gift from the Qatari government last year, and underwent renovations to provide the services a president might need.

President Donald Trump was on hand at Joint Base Andrews, the military base that has served as a president's airport, and said, "There will never be one like this. This is very unique. This is considered the world's most luxurious plane. When it was built, it was built at a level that will probably never be seen again."

The Air Force confirmed the jet aircraft, larger than previous units that served as Air Force One, soon will be embarking on "commissioning flights," its "final exam" before it can be used to transport the president.

"Fresh from receiving its new red, white, and blue livery and the final government modifications, the aircraft has entered service to provide critical, secure continuity for the commander in chief," the Air Force said

Netanyahu determined to Eradicate Hamas

Israel sent a message: Hamas leaders are never safe...anywhere

When rockets rain across your homeland, and terrorists parade through your streets unpunished—even in foreign capitals—that’s when a decisive response becomes not just necessary but imperative.

On September 9, Israel shattered a sense of security for Hamas’s high command in Doha, delivering a bold, extraterritorial strike on leadership sites inside Qatar. The message was clear: the architects of the October 7, 2023, genocidal assault on innocent Israelis has no sanctuary—no matter where they hide.

Israel’s military conducted what officials described as a “precise strike” targeting senior Hamas leaders in Doha, Qatar, notably Khalil al-Hayya and Zaher Jabarin, deeply involved in ceasefire negotiations.

“The IDF and ISA [Shin Bet] conducted a precise strike targeting the senior leadership of the Hamas terrorist organization,” a statement confirmed to Fox News Digital. “Israel initiated it, Israel conducted it, and Israel takes full responsibility,” declared Prime Minister Netanyahu’s office.

Hamas remains an embedded insurgency in Gaza. Analysts estimate around 20,000 fighters remain operational, with recruitment sustained through family and clan networks despite heavy losses.

Hamas would not survive this long without Tehran. Iran’s funding—estimated in the hundreds of millions annually—arms, trains, and sustains Hamas’s military and political infrastructure. Qatar, while playing mediator, is also a longstanding home to Hamas’s Political Bureau, with upwards of $1.8 billion transferred to Hamas over the years.

Israel carried out an attack against the Hamas leadership in Doha

Israeli strike targets Hamas leadership as explosions reported in Qatar

Israel's military targeted senior Hamas leadership in Qatar with an airstrike on Tuesday.

"The IDF and ISA [Shin Bet] conducted a precise strike targeting the senior leadership of the Hamas terrorist organization," the Israel Defense Forces said in a statement.

Khalil al-Hayya and Zaher Jabarin were the two targets of the Israeli strikes, Fox News Chief Foreign Correspondent Trey Yingst said Tuesday, citing initial reports.

"For years, these members of the Hamas leadership have led the terrorist organization's operations, are directly responsible for the brutal October 7 massacre, and have been orchestrating and managing the war against the State of Israel.

Prior to the strike, measures were taken in order to mitigate harm to civilians, including the use of precise munitions and additional intelligence," the IDF added.

President Trump's Mid-East trip

How Trump stunned the world as he flipped America's Middle East policy on its head

Moments after President Donald Trump was escorted to Air Force One by United Arab Emirates President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the president popped his head into the press cabin.

He had just walked up to the plane on a baby blue red carpet - a final pop of pomp after his showy nearly four-day sweep through the Middle East.

The 78-year-old president visited a trio of countries in just three and a half days, with a schedule that stretched late into the evening with opulent state dinners every night.

He had referred to the whirlwind trip as an 'endurance test' and repeated that sentiment to the press.

'You have great stamina, also. We all have stamina. You needed it. That was a test. I think they were giving us a test,' Trump said with a laugh, commending his hosts in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.

Qatar has been an enemy of this country for years. How can American universities allow their faculty to justify terrorism? Because many of them are funded – bought – by Qatar, a country with a vested interest in spreading extremist ideology.

I don' trust Steve Witkoff's opinion on Qatar or President Trump's. They both have been manipulated by Qatar, in my opinion. Time will tell.

Trump Becomes First U.S. President to Officially Visit Qatar

President Trump received royal treatment in Qatar

President Donald Trump became the first U.S. president to officially visit Qatar on Wednesday, and he received a grand reception suited to the historic occasion.

Qatari F-15s met Air Force One in the sky and escorted it to Doha. The emir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, greeted Trump on the tarmac when he arrived in the capital. The pomp continued as Trump’s motorcade traveled to the Amiri Diwan.

During Trump and al-Thani’s official meeting, Trump underscored their previous meeting in 2019 at the White House and emphasized Qatar’s involvement in working to bring peace between Russia and Ukraine.

Huge deal signed with Qatar

Trump announced more than $243.5 billion in economic deals between the United States and Qatar

including a $96 billion agreement for Boeing to sell up to 210 jets to Qatar Airways

The White House stated that the agreement with Qatar is projected to generate at least $1.2 trillion in economic exchange between both countries.

The deal was signed amid Trump’s four-day trip to the Middle East. The president was joined by Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg and Qatari Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani for the signing ceremony in Doha.

Trump had signed multiple agreements with Saudi Arabia the day prior.

Ortberg signed the deal with Qatar Airways CEO Badr Mohammed Al-Meer while standing next to Trump and Tamim. The president said Ortberg told him that it’s “the largest order of jets in the history of Boeing.”

The Biden Crime Family in bed with terrorists

Joe Biden’s Brother Jim Biden Was in Business With Qatari Officials Using Joe Biden’s Influence

It appears that they scammed Americore Health LLC

News surfaced on Sunday revealing that Jim Biden, brother of Joe Biden, leveraged his connection to the ex-Vice President to engage in business with the terrorist-backing regime of Qatar and overseas investors to fund Americore Health LLC.

During the House Oversight Committee’s probe into the Biden family’s alleged corruption, it was found that a $200,000 payment was made directly to Joe Biden, under the guise of a “loan repayment.”

No IRS filings or loan agreements were available to prove this claim.

In 2018, Jim Biden received $600,000 in ‘loans’ from Americore Health LLC, a failing/bankrupt rural hospital operator.

According to bankruptcy documents, Jim Biden received the loans “based upon representations that his last name Biden could open doors and that he could obtain a large investment from the Middle East based on his political connections.”
