My comments : I think there is going to be regime change in Qatar. The US has 11,000 military personnel in al Udeid airbase. They need Qatar. But they do not need the ruling family. Recall that Saudi embargo against Qatar? That really backfired. Or has it? It may have been a smokescreen. The Qatar ruling mafia's days are numbered.
