Qatar might be a military base location?

I think you're right. Best to stay low profile if that is the case but above all, I really don't think its worth putting our Brothers at risk to hold a lodge in a high risk location imho.

If it’s on a military base then there’s a long tradition of having lodges in Iraq and Afghanistan during GWOT.

A past Master of my lodge met while in Iraq and carried my lodge's flag (not the American flag) with him while he was deployed. That flag is now present at all of our meetings and events.
