First of all, what are the consequences for qatar . Its a tiny country which now finds itself literally cut off from its neighbors.

Its is ramadan and, though is a time of fasting during the day for muslims, it is a time for considerable celebration.

In that part of the world, family ties tend to go across a number of countries. This is difficult to be imposed on qatar, probably intentionally chosen by the saudis. Laura how much truth is there to these allegations that qatar supports terrorism . William it depends on how you define terrorism. The key thing that the qataris will, asy of, if you far as the saudis and egyptians, is that they have long been supporters of the muslim brotherhood. Al jazeera, a qatariowned International News channel, has always given prominent support to, or i should say airtime to muslim brothers and opponents in a variety of countries around the region.

Are trying toudis take maximum advantage of this early on in hopes that the americans will at least acquiesce. Last morek this will than a few months or most.
