As an integral part of the Western security order and a strategic partner of the United States, the Qatari security establishment would like me to pass on an inquiry into the purchase of massive quantities of American-made assets to facilitate the ongoing Qatari re-armament. Normally we would be looking at private partners for discussion first, but amongst what we seek to acquire include sensitive assets. For example, we're looking into the acquisition of Lockheed Martin's F-35 Lightning fighter jet, in addition to the MV-22 Osprey, additional C-130J Hercules and even flying radar and tanker platforms. We're also looking to bolster our humanitarian capabilities by purchasing a Lewis B. Puller-class Expeditionary Dock vessel. All in all, we're looking at a sum in the double digit billions that will sure to make your supporters in the military industrial complex happy. We would like to hear your thoughts on this proposal.
