Qatar: the best friend of... yeah, you got it

Somebody told me this morning that Qatar intends to get rid of Hamas presence on its territory. Wow, says I to myself, Hamas is getting even on their best friend's nerves, it looks like. Then I got to the intertubes.

A senior Fatah official claimed in a conversation with the Al-Hayat newspaper that Qatar recently threatened Hamas' political bureau chief Khaled Mashal that it would expel him if Hamas accepts the Egyptian ceasefire truce deal in its current format.
Now I see it. Now you can see the ugly truth too.

As they keep telling us, in the recent Israel vs Hamas dust-up the outside participants aligned in two distinct camps: Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan in one camp, against Hamas, and Qatar, Iran and Turkey (a NATO member, by the way) - on Hamas' side.

So they keep telling us, but they also keep forgetting one player with considerable, but somewhat waning influence in our parts - I mean the US of A.

Let me see, where should US be in that layout?

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Go figure...

Keep stirring the pot seems to be B. Hussein's method, if you can call it a method. When he isn't sucking up to the Jihadis. Oh, wait, he's sucking up here, too.

I still haven't found 12 minutes to watch this, probably because the prospect of wading hip-deep through the sewage of lies is not appealing.

I really don't know. If the State Dept will keep to its policy, Jerusalem may yet call upon Kremlin for help, who knows. I wouldn't be totally surprised.

Well, this clip is heavily reprocessed, so it is not all that bad, you shall see ;-)
