The largest US flag you've ever seen flying at a car dealership is tiny compared to the Qatari flag that flies from the top of al-Jazeera's headquarters building in downtown Doha.

Officials believe that, at this point: the diplomat was angry at being caught smoking and taunted the FAMS. No explosives found on board.

We all know Tilton is desperately seeking a golden parachute, but why would UA have spent all of the recent time and money aligning themselves with CO if they were talking about a merger with US?

I'm calling BS on these rumors. :-:

Saudi-lite isn't strong enough, truthfully. They are miles ahead on Westernization. Coalition servicepeople can drink in Qatar. I wish I still had my beer ration card.

The censorship and heavy handed way of dealing with their population is more to which I was referring.
