#2 A Target for the extremist comes to mind.

Arabs and religious tolerance dont go together!

In their logic the "true religion" can be worldwide but the false religions cant!!!

#4 I understand that Qatar is one of the most progressive of Gulf nations. This definitely seems like a positive step, and I give them credit for it.

#5 Bahrain is the most progressive Arab state, but the Emir Hamad of Qatar is making sure his country is moving along the path of development. He took over the country in a bloodless coup in 1995, has built one of the most impressive air force bases in the world - complete with NATO standard NBC protection and aircraft bunkers, and hosts the US CENTCOM in-country on that base.
He also declared that women can vote in any of the local elections that are now permitted - without getting permission from any of the local mullahs. Troublesome mullahs tend to have "accidents" in Qatar.

#10 If Qatar keeps up like this, it just might remove them from the targeting list. Bravo.
