| Bahrain blames Qatar for ‘military tensions’ in Persian Gulf crisis |
| 2017-06-27 |
| [Iran Press TV] Bahrain's foreign minister has accused Qatar ...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates... of creating a military escalation in the Persian Gulf region in the wake of a recent move by Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... and its allies to sever their diplomatic relations with Doha, and close their borders and airspace with the gas-rich kingdom. "The disagreement with Qatar is a political and security dispute, and has never been military," Sheikh Khalid bin Ahmed Al Khalifah wrote in a post published on his Twitter page on Monday. He added, "But the deployment of foreign troops with their armored vehicles is a military escalation for which Qatar will bear the consequences." "Certain regional powers are mistaken if they think that their intervention will resolve the problem," Sheikh Khalid said on Twitter. On Sunday, Turkish Foreign Ministry Spokesman Huseyin Muftuoglu stated that Turkish efforts to set up a military base in Qatar had nothing to do with the ongoing diplomatic crisis between Doha and other Arab countries. "The purpose of the deployment of the Turkish Armed Forces in Qatar is to contribute to the security of the region as well as to provide Qatar with support in military training. Our activities are not against any particular country," he said. |
