I think there is going to be war in the gulf... all those shinny skyscrapers are going to turn to dust in Dubai, Doha, Oman, Bahrain... all the enemies who have been jealous of the gulfs wealth and gonna sit down and enjoy the show such as the NATO types, the Israelis., and if course the Indians

Unlikely.

 

[Saho]

I wonder which side will Trumpf take?

 

[Trango Towers]

Saudi and UAE rulers are filth.
there is no muslim unity. these people are selfish. house of saud iis in bed with Israel.
only time before they fall. when they do I will be smiling

It doesn't take much for the Arabs to fight one another.
The fault lines are very clear, the mistrust and animosity is what defines them now.
One thing is very clear that if any state supports terrorism or propagates terrorist ideology then it will be isolated by the global community.
The world is getting fed up of religious terrorism.

What a short-sighted move by the KSA et al, but that just shows the reactionary nature of these regimes. The problem is the gulf states are feeling emboldened by the hawkish Trump administration, and are acting this harshly to Qatar DESPITE Qatar denying make those statements about Israel and Iran.

The thing they dont realise is that Trump is not going to be here forever. In fact it is looking very much like he is going to be a one-term president judging by all the scandals and dip in opinion polls.
And heck Trump might even change course on Iran, much like Obama and to some extent even Bush.
Thats because they realised that you can not get regional stability by excluding/isolating one of the regions main powers. Trump may very well come to realise this late in his precidensy.
This is the problem with GCC, they are not playing the long game but instead put all their bets on Trump. A short term bet. That is why they today stand as loosers in Iraq, Syria, Yemen and Lebanon and will remain loosers in the long term future.

I now can understand why AlAhli team canceled the sponsorship deal with Qatar Airways, it is going to lose every dime it has during this rift.

Important lesson here for GCC boot lickers here in Pakistan, when it comes to achieving their objectives, the Gulf monarchs don't even give a damn about their own Arab brethren.

Just yesterday, you people were saying that qatar is our brother nothing will happen. Fake news. What is this?? And what rational is there to block civilian airlines. Even Pakistan and India doesn't do that.

It seems the list is not complete yet.

 

[IronHeart]

Saudi Arabia is accusing Qatar of supporting terrorism? Saudi Arabia is the largest manufacturing plant of jihadist in the world itself.

Yes they are our brothers, and you can see how both Saudis and Qataris reacted to the DECISION, no hostility between the people but some political differences and we believe this issue should be resolved ASAP. As you know it's better to place little economic sanction than firing missiles.

No, that won't happen. The U S,U.K, France, and even Asian coublike Japan have huge investments in these countries and for the former military bases. So any war here is out of the question.
I believe neutral countries like Kuwait shiuld meditate between both sides . We can also intervene to calm things down and prevent them from getting out of hand. There will certainly never be a war in this area, not anytime soon. Even if it means a change in regime in Qatar, then regional and western powers will make that happen than allowing the country to turn into another Syria. We have too much at stake there . So talk of any war is wishful thinking.
