excerpt-
Revenue from the oil sales is currently being held in bank accounts controlled by the US government, as indicated in Friday’s order, according to the administration official. The main account, according to a second senior administration official, is located in Qatar.
The second official described Qatar as a neutral location where money can flow freely with US approval and without risk of seizure. Trump’s order noted that at least some of the revenue would be held in US Treasury accounts.

Shows how we trust Arabs more than Europeans.
Maybe, but why not us banks? Seems weird.
I thought Qatar was tight with the anti-Israel crowd.
Shows how we control Qatar.
U.S. banks would be subject to the vagaries of activist judges.
US banks are run by anti-fossil fuel liberals.
Non sequitur.
The fact in Qatar is that there is not homogenization. For reasons I don’t understand, there are at least two strong factions.
My guess is that there are old men who support the radicals and younger men who seek modernization
I think it may very well be just the opposite.
Qatar & Saudis have been pressuring Trump into not attacking Iran. They won’t cooperate in letting our military in their countries do anything against Iran.

“As Iran slaughters thousands of mostly young people seeking freedom, Qatar % Saudi Arabia are reportedly lobbying POTUS not to hit Iran. So much for our new friends.”
> Trump’s order noted that at least some of the revenue would be held in US Treasury accounts.
Qatar has been Brit and US intel infested for decades.
So, the money in Qatar belongs to Trump? He alone has control of it? All US money should go thru the US Treasury..
If the money in Qatar is US money, it is also subject to courts.
That makes sense. I know that other Gulf Arabs are moderate—especially from UAE and Saudi Arabia (MBS).
Why not use the money to refill the Strategic Oil Reserve that Biden sold to China?
Maybe US banks have systems in place to prevent banking with the country. So they had to go through an intermediary that was not restricting banking.
Qatar funds the Islamization of our universities. They export the worst of Islam.
