Qatar row: Saudi and Egypt among countries to cut Doha links

How doesn't it? Explain that out for us.

 

I never denied anything about Gaza in 2014.

There are LOTS of stupid people who don't know anything about the Saudis or their history or their leadership. Their ignorance doesn't change the facts.

I said QATAR not Iran can't play footsie with all those terror groups. Can't you read? Its damned foolish to trash the best friend the US has ever had in the ME.. and one of the very few that was NEVER a colony.

Do you understand how that changes the game?

 

It goes way back ..The Saudis don't like Nasserism, Baathism, the Muslim Brotherhood or the Soviets.. and they were never a French or British colony.. which makes them very different and far less Nationalistic ..

Its what makes KSA different from Syria, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Afghanistan.

 

Yet this issue over Qatar is about their alleged ties/or support with Iran. And or supporting those with ties to Iran.

Hence what I said. Its still connected to the Shia and Sunni.

 

Qatar is Sunni.

Iran is Shia.

 

That's right. Iran is Shia and Iran supports several terror groups, but Qatar supports ISIS, Libyan militias, AQ and the Taliban. That's a problem for KSA, Kuwait, the UAE and Bahrain.

 

Saudi royalty want Al-Jazeera shut down, among other things:

Don't forget that Qatar supports Hezbollah too. That is also a problem for the Saud.

 

They've cut Qatar off. I seriously doubt KSA would invade.

 

That's right.. KSA wants a peaceful solution in Palestine.. and they think Hezbollah is an obstacle.

 

So like I said......lets blame the Shia and the Sunni. That's where the blame belongs. Not on any others.

 

Eastern Libyan militias were first Al Qaeda and then pledged allegiance to ISIS.

This photo is showing Americans awarding their leader:

So Marge, you once again make no sense by trying to make evil out of Qatar due to their support to eastern Libyan terrorists because UNITED STATES is the MAIN SPONSOR of them. Keep crying...

 

On the plus side, since it isn't winter, most of us won't be affected by this natural gas trade war.

 

I support your condemnation. And it is nice that you use a picture of your wife as your avatar.

 

Why? free country.

 

Qatar also hosts the US biggest militairy base in the middle east with 11.000 American troops.
If Trump doesnt sort this out, they just might end this cooperation because the friendship is not working out.

 

They also host Central Command.

Trump invited the Qataris to the WH.....to help work things out.

 

A fuller account on what is going on.

This isn't about threatening Qatar's sovereignty.. Its about terrorists that Qatar hosts and supports.

 

That's the saudi's excuse.

You keep calling the Muslim Brotherhood 'terrorists'. However this was just the excuse of autocratic Sisi for his coup which of course the Saud's were extremely supportive of seeing it get rid of democracy from Egypt.

Here however is a description of the situation historically of the MB in Egypt

https://www.lrb.co.uk/v35/n17/hugh-roberts/the-revolution-that-wasnt

Did you never hear everyone going on about how Hamas went against the MB for being involved in terrorism - or parts of them did and I think it is some time since they have.

and yes Qatar like the Sauds gives money to terrorists fighting in Syria - something the US has to some extent also been involved in - that and at times turning a blind eye.

 

8 countries are opposing Qatar in this matter.. and Libya's Eastern militias say Qatar was funding them from Feb 2011. The Saudis don't support terrorism because its a waste of money and gets people killed.

Mubarak was extremely corrupt. He owned a piece of every successful venture in Egypt. There is a reason when people risk everything to revolt.Most Egyptians live on a dollar a day and literacy if shockingly low. So many Egyptians work abroad to earn a living.

 

It is people following the Saud's. Seems as you can see from the article I left that Qatar has more support than originally thought. Just been listening to Max Blumenthal discussing this on The Real News and the Saud's do still finance some of the groups. Previously they did support those who turned into ISIS - they are the people who funded the original Al Qaeda. They treat their own citizens not desperately differently. Who on earth are they to talk? They are angry with Qatar because it is not going by their demands re Iran. Now our election results are about to start!!

 

Do you remember the attack on the Grand Mosque and the bombing of Khobar Towers. Max Blumenthal has no sources. He's just selling ink.

 

The other Arab states are far more annoyed with Al Jazeera, the Arab version. I heard that has a lot of fox news kind of themed reality. But you know... freedom of speech. And than there is the thing of the MB, who is also in the US. So Trump cant say something about that one either. There is also this thing with Iran. But the US also does trade with Iran... they sold them 16.6 billions dollars worth of boeings. So you know....

And Qatar bombs ISIS in Jemen.
So... you know.
