So basically the Russians ran an operation seeking to knock out the us base in Qatar and trump completely fell to it

Hell he took credit for it.

Only because he wants to strike a far better deal when he personally renegotiates a base deal with the Qataris; they'll probably have to end up paying for a wall surrounding southern Iran too.

You can't make this shit up.

[Razgovory]

This is surreal.

Amateur hour all around.

The EU should create the Order of the Golden Bauble, give him a big shiny medal and scepter, and see if that distracts him enough to get the US back to a reasonable position.

You are laughing but I seriously think something like that would work. Which is sad.

I really don't know if I should laugh or cry.

You remember how you read about bad emperors and kings messing up their empire for decades if not downright collapsing them? This is how the modern version of this looks like, folks.

That should be the title of Trumps biography.

Sadly, I don't think we can beat the Saudis and Russians in the gaudyness department.

If it's done through official channels they would still do something tasteful. Unless you get Berlusconi's people on it.

Qataris may no longer use the airports in Dubai and Abu Dhabi at all, which means they have now more limitations than even Israelis which can stay in the airport for transfers.

[The Larch]

Turkey just announced that they're fast-tracking a bill to deploy troops in a base they have in Qatar.

UAE threatens potential sympathizers with Qatar with up to 15 years in jail if they express such sympathy in any way, including social media.

[Valmy]

Wait so Turkey is protecting Qatar?

I guess right now I just need to wait to hear what the US military is going to do since our clown President will just tweet whatever he thinks makes him look good.
