Saudi, UAE, Bahrain, and Egypt completely cut off Qatar, even denying them landing rights and usage of airspace. Gave Qataris 2 weeks to get out of their countries and are closing down the border.

They accuse Qatar of supporting Iran and Muslim Brotherhood (true) and supporting Hamas (maybe).

Puts us in a weird spot given our 5th Fleet is stationed in Qatar....
 
i wish we werent so reliant on oil and we could just ignore that part of the world entirely.

Well if Saudi, UAE, Bahrain, and Egypt, then America should probably do it! That is what you're referring to with Trumps unConstitutional Travel ban...

Your agenda has caused you to abandon thinking for yourself.

We have as much oil as any other country. It's the military industrial complex that has forced us in dependence and conflict.
 
World Cup 2022, looking better and better....

It was insane and stupid to ever grant them the WC.

Just wait until the drunk maniac soccer fans clash with the religious norms and customs that you're expected to abide by when there.

Im sure gay soccer fans will be welcomed with open arms.*
 
This is going to cause chaos with air travel. Doha is a massive hub for flights into the region, but now they can't get from there to where they're going in these countries. Same goes for people flying into Dubai or Riyadh trying to go onto Doha.
 
We obviously need to sell them more arms...or bomb them.

Good start, I would love to see countries like the UAE and Saudi Arabia relax their anti Jewish travel issues.
 
Qatar, in the Sunni Arab world, is the equivalent of France, in NATO.

Only where France goes against the US to get 3rd party belligerents to approach them, Qatar goes against Saudia Arabia to get the Shites to talk to them.
