Gulf Arabs Cut Ties to Qatar Over ‘Terrorism’
The governments of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the UAE, and Egypt issued an announcement over the weekend that they are cutting their diplomatic ties and discontinuing all land, sea and air travel to and from the tiny Gulf Emirate in protest of its support for “terrorism” as well as “flagrant violations” of international law. The move came following months of tensions between Qatar and its neighbors, as well as the US, over various forms of support it has given to the Moslem Brotherhood and its cozy relations with Iran.
