Good perspective, though he misses the point at the end. Qatar is a US contractor. When the US needs Islamic extremists to cause trouble somewhere, Qatar facilitates it for them.
<<< Let's take a look at Qatar from a cryptocolonial perspective. What makes Qatar famous? It is one of the wealthiest countries in the world, home to the Al-Jazeera media network, and a close military ally of the UK and the US, with a major joint Anglo-American military base located in the heart of the country.
Additionally, Qatar has been linked to Al-Qaeda, and is widely considered the main sponsor of radical Wahhabi Salafism worldwide. In the 1990s, Qatar supported Chechen terrorists and sheltered their leaders, and it has been funding ISIS and other radical Sunni groups in recent years. The most surprising aspect of this is that the UK and US, who operate a military base within this country and view it as a major ally, are pretending not to see their own 'enemies' right under their noses. Does any of this make sense? No, it does not.
Let's consider Qatar's recent history briefly. For most of the 20th century, it was a British protectorate, shaped and molded by the British. Despite the fact that they were allowed to become 'independent' in 1971, the British continued running the show.
Most of the prime ministers of Qatar were educated in the UK. Sheikh Hamad graduated from the British Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst in 1971. Abdullah bin Khalifa Al Thani, who succeeded him, was also a graduate of that same academy. Abdullah bin Nasser Al Thani graduated from Durham Military College in the UK, and Khalid bin Khalifa bin Abdul Aziz Al Thani studied in the USA for a change.
The current Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani received a full British education, starting with Sherborne School and then went to RMA Sandhurst.
Again, a country that was formed by the British and is a military platform for the United States is responsible for funding much of the terrorist activity in the world.
There's another similar country that was founded by the British and is the closest military ally of the United States. Its leaders were also educated in the UK and the US, and it fights against Hamas, an organization that is funded by Qatar and whose leader lives in Doha.
What if the UK and US have a vast network of crypto-colonies, and they use them to pit them against each other, while supporting both sides and profiting from the resulting chaos and bloodshed? Nah, that's crazy talk. >>>
