Image result for Qatar leader Tamim Well, it ain’t Iran’s truly honest elections which swayed the Amir of Qatar, Tameem bin Hamad `Aali Thaani, to switch loyalties to Iran. And, it wasn’t anything to do with the largest American military base in the region at Al-‘Udayd. In fact, the switch to Iran while hosting the U.S. would seem an unlikely coupling. But, not if you are a mini-state on the verge of self-destruction through a disadvantaged economic position. You see, folks, once the natural gas pipeline is completed from Iran, across Iraq, to Syria’s coast, Qatari gas will be so expensive that the country will float on its cash reserves for a couple of years and then, implode. No more Qatar. Hmmmm. The Iranians thought. What if we let the Qataris in on the deal? What if we share the natural gas pipeline? What if we can drive a wedge between Qatar and the rest of the Arabian trash on the Gulf? Wouldn’t that be British of us? And so, it has happened. Iran has agreed to give Qatar a share of its rights in the pipeline to Syria and Damascus has agreed as long as Qatar discontinues its support for Al-Qaeda, ISIS and all the other rat groups like Faylaq Al-Rahmaan. Soon, Qatar’s useless military officers will be withdrawn from MOK in Jordan. And, better yet, Qatar is now absolved from any further obligation to the so-called “Saudi coalition” in the very unpopular war in Yemen. The Saudis are enraged. How could Qatar support the Muslim Brotherhood, a group of Islamist fundamentalists who are deeply opposed to rule by primogenture or dynasticism? And, how could Qatar, a fellow rag-head nation hand its baton to Shi’I Iran, Saudi Arabia’s main enemy in the region? How, indeed? The Egyptians, so affronted by Qatar’s actions, accepted a check from Saudi Arabia in the billions in order to get it to pull its embassy out of Doha. Even the “government” in East Libya also departed. Will Saudi Arabia attack Qatar with the U.S. base right there? Hardly, unless the U.S. pulls its assets out which will cost Mr. Trump a pretty penny. And how can Saudi Arabia do anything about it when it has its own paws full in Yemen? Politics make strange bedfellows – the U.S. and Iran in a menage a trois fit for the history books. I can’t wait to hear Trump explain this one away. Don’t pay attention to the Washington stink tanks. They are deliberately hiding the facts from the pushover press. Pathetic. Let’s watch and see how long Saudi Arabia will take to act now that it’s enemy, Iran, is right on the border. ZAF Poster Comment: the Thylacine Agree, USA and Iran are not working together in this. It’s not really about some ransomes, either. It’s about gas. This comes from Russia. Putin sat down with the Khalifas a year or more ago, and sold them Gazprom shares. Brilliant move — he’s split the Gulf apes apart. THAT’S what this is about. Anonymous.... The Qataris should have some juicy details of the setting up of the whole terrorist process – including the creation, funding, training and arming processes. I wonder if the Zionist stooges will invade Qatar – to save us from terrorists, naturally – while in reality capturing such records and looting the gold from the Qatari central Bank (as seen in Libya). Their holdings are about 30 tons, worth some $2 billion. That alone might make it worthwhile for some covetous folks. >p> Sicel Joe.... I think Qatar did the math and saw where the money will lay in the very near future, surely not with the Anglo-Zionist Alliance who are on the verge of a world-wide eclipse. The future is with the growing alliances between Russia-Iran, (Eurasian axis) and to an extent China and India. This really was a move of self-preservation if you ask me. Anyone who follows the dying decrepit Zionist-inspired Anglosphere will share their fate. I will also point out that in 2016, Qatar awarded Italy (the least Zionist country in the EU and most pro-Russian) an enormous $5 billion bid to build it a mini navy. The sleazy French under Hollande were boling mad to see their “oltrè Alpe” cousins swipe the contract from under their feet. This was an affront to the Zio stooge and super-cuck (gran cornuto!!!!) Hollande. Just to note, Italy is also in segret negotiatians to provide Iran with super-modern frigates (FREMM?), even the Yids at Debka have reported it. Kuwait will be the next to break ranks! Place your bets! Mike-Florida... Supporting Ziad’s wonderful opening regarding Qatar > “Bahrain, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia severed all ties with Qatar. All sea- and airspace have been closed for Qatari traffic and the land-routes severed. All Qataris will have to leave those countries within 14 days. Qatari diplomats were given just 48 hours. The immediate consequences are huge. Some 37 million passengers cross through Doha each year. But Qatar Airways now has to fly through Iranian, Iraqi and Turkish airspace to reach Europe. (If the situation persists the UAE owned Emirates Airways will likely order a huge bunch of new planes.) Half of the food in Qatar comes via Saudi Arabia through Qatar’s only land border. 600-800 trucks per day can no longer pass. The 19 flights per day between Doha and Dubai are called off. Oil prices rose some 1.6% and the Qatari stock exchange tanked. The Saudis accuse Qatar of supporting terrorists. That is like Britain accusing the U.S. of imperialism, or the mafia cutting ties with the mob over gangsterism. As Joe Biden remarked (vid) when still Vice President, both Wahhabi countries, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, have been funding and fueling terrorism in Syria, Iraq and elsewhere. But the Saudi view is that the more “liberal” Qatar is simply supporting the “wrong” kind of terrorists.” http://www.moonofalabama.org/2017/06/the-gcc-states-led-by-saudi-arabia-will-collapse-into-oblivion.html#more This article provides some impact info on this GCC split-up issue; regarding the author’s ‘reasons’, its my view Ziad’s opening post pointing to special deal between Iran & Qatar as the reason is more right on. Time will show – real soon. Be interesting to see if this takes some badly needed pressure off Yemen, and also dries up some of the paycheck funding of bad guys in Syria. And, hopefully makes the opening of the Damascus to Baghdad highway even more assured. Ain’t Ziad’s insight amazing? Mike.28 “The U.S. military has huge interests in Qatar and other Gulf countries. Al-Udeid in Qatar is the biggest U.S. airbase in the Middle East. It is also the forward headquarter of the U.S. Central Command with some 10,000 U.S. soldiers and leads the fight against ISIS. The U.S. Navy fifth fleet is hosted in nearby Bahrain which has now declared a cold war with Qatar. Any spat or difficulty between the Gulf countries hinders U.S. military operations.” Mike-Florida... “The first statement by the Qatar Liberation Council: The family of Ahmed Al-Thani (X-rulers of Qatar ) will rule – they have ousted the Emir of Qatar from their abode in the UAE” – sounds much like traditional regime change approach – perhaps easier considering Qatar basically already an ‘occupied’ nation, considering presence of US forces, with just 2 million population land-locked to SA. Wondering when and how Al-Thani ruled before, beholden to ? Mike. anti_republocrat... As I’ve said, Qatar is being thrown under the bus to distract from KSA’s and CIA’s role in sponsoring terrorism.

It's a high stakes gamble for Qatar, but pitching in with Iran in the Isalmic Republic's pipeline project is a good business fit for this little sheikdom. Riyadh may find it too chancey to actually invade Qatar what with the heavy Centcom presence there. If Turkey throws in with Qatar and Iran, they're going to have to redraw those pipeline maps, and it's going to get real interesting all across the region. Moar tensions within Nato. Ulcers for Centcom, etc. etc. Italy's building Iran a new Navy BTW. And ain't that a bitch. It's getting to be quite a little snarl over there as if things weren't CF'd there already. Let's see if Trump kin sort this out. Time for another little sword dance. Was it Washington or Jefferson that warned us against entangling alliances? I think it was both. ifpnews.com: Saudi Arabia and its allies expect Qatar, as one of the richest countries in the region, to express support for their high adventures. But Qatar’s economic interest lies in preserving the status quo and this is not acceptable for Saudi Arabia. ifpnews.com/exclusive/inventing-enemies-saudi-arabias-trick- survival/ Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded. - James Madison

Saudi Arabia has already imposed marine blockade on Qatar. This is a ridiculous decision because it is pushing Qatar towards Iran. Qatar has the longest sea border with Iran. On the other hand, Qatar’s largest source of income is located in joint gas fields with Iran. It goes without saying that Qatar needs friendly ties with Iran to take advantage of the resources. This comes as Saudi Arabia expects the country to cut ties with Iran and adopt a hostile and even warmongering stance towards the Islamic Republic.
