UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Bahrain Cut Diplomatic Ties With Qatar…
The Conservative Tree House ^ | June 5, 2017 | Sundance

Posted on 06/05/2017 6:10:16 PM PDT by HarleyLady27

There’s a history needed for context here. But first, here’s the latest developments in order of their occurrence.

♦ 6:00am Bahrain’s Foreign Affairs Ministry issued a statement early Monday saying it would withdraw its diplomatic mission from the Qatari capital of Doha within 48 hours and that all Qatari diplomats should leave Bahrain within the same period.

The ministry’s statement said Qatari citizens needed to leave Bahrain within two weeks and that air and sea traffic between the two countries would be halted. It wasn’t immediately clear how that would affect Qatar Airways, one of the region’s major long-haul carriers.

Bahrain blamed Qatar’s “media incitement, support for armed terrorist activities and funding linked to Iranian groups to carry out sabotage and spreading chaos in Bahrain” for its decision.

(snip)

Here’s some historic background for possible context on the latest developments: ◾Qatar was the intermediary used by President Obama for covert arms and monetary transfers by the Obama CIA and Obama/Clinton State Department respectively. ◾Qatar was also the chosen home for detainees when President Obama released the GITMO terrorists. ◾Most importantly however, is the relationship between Qatar and the Muslim Brotherhood. When Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi named the Muslim Brotherhood a terror organization, their leadership fled to safe harbor in Qatar.

Wow! Muslims issuing travel bans on Muslims. Go figure! /s/

Just goes to prove how ignorant our court system is!

There is also the Orthodox subplot in this mix: A mission/parish in Qatar being served by a Priest of the Patriarchate of Jerusalem has led to the Patriarchate of Antioch suspending communion with Jerusalem. The Patriarchate of Moscow joined Antioch in boycotting the “Council” held in Crete last June.

Could Qatar’s estrangement from the Arab world in part be caused by its permitting an Orthrodox presence in the Arabian peninsula?

So what we have is, Muslims are implementing a Muslim travel ban to fight the Muslim Brotherhood, but in the USA we can’t enact a similar travel ban for seven countries with no vetting for Muslim terrorists.

Because of Democrats.

Remember at the mid east conference, Trump said “everyone will sign the accord.” evidently some didn’t.

I think this might be big.

Maybe, I have underestimated Trump....

The last decade or so, Qatar has started rivalling Saudi in terror funding.

So if Trump get the Saudis to stop, then stopping Qatar by force....

It will be very very big.

Qatar was always used by Clinton, Zero and others...the only reason Zero wanted the President of Turkey to remain in power was to help take out the Kurds who are fighting with us against ISIS...

No telling what John McCain has done to the region, he's always over there somewhere with his ISIS buddies doing heaven knows what...

And the fast and furious was a set up to get guns through Venezuela into Syria to arm ISIS and others to fight against us...Ambassador Chris Steven found out about it and that's why he and 3 others were killed...

The Patriarchates of Moscow, Antioch, and Serbia saved us from that globalist-driven robber “Council”!!!! (The Serbian Church was forced to attend but they refused to ratify the “ecumenist” documents that came out of that “Council”!)

Thus we avoided the fate of the Roman Catholic Church under Bergoglio!!!!

By the way, June 1 is the day to remember St. Justin Popovic of Celije, the chief theologian in modern times of Serbian anti-ecumenism!!! St. Justin is listed in the calendars of the Serbian, Russian, and Antiochian Churches, but NOT the OCA!!!! This is despite the OCA website often referring to “Justin Popovich’s” writings! There are still too many ecumenists and closet Uniates in the cabal that runs much of the OCA.

St. Justin of Celije, pray to God for us!!!!

June 1; the Commemoration of two Justins: The Martyr at Rome of AD 67 and Justin Popovic of Celije.

Nice.

We can both remember how November 11 used to be for us the commemoration of two Martins.

I doubt that. There are a few churches around including a very beautiful Orthodox church in Sharjah, UAE, a a church cluster in Muscat Oman that includes Catholic and Protestant churches. Don't think that is the reason.

I don’t think Qatar was there I am pretty sure they were. They have a certain way they fold their "hat" thingy and I noticed it in the group.

I don’t remember hearing anything about them being there, but they could have been, if they think that President Trump is playing around, I think they should think again...

People just don’t understand just how smart this President is...it’s about time people find out...

The other countries who finance and support terrorism say about Qatar: “Look squirrel!”

So this ‘safe space’ is not a
‘safe space’ other than the sign?
It’s all Greek to me. Would prefer it stay
that way.
