Qatar and US weapons sale

Okay, if Qatar is associated with the Muslim brotherhood and has terror ties, why is the US selling them 11 Billion in weapons?

They are buying Patriot missiles and other items. Why do we also maintain a base in Qatar? Can't we find a gulf country without terror ties? But every time the US sells weapons to terror-linked states, the weapons end up being used against us or our allies. Though this may make cents, it doesn't make sense.
