Qatar And Qatar's Al Jazeera Intolerance

 Qatar and its Al Jazeera media empire are cushioned by massive oil and gas wealth from the intolerance and religious fundamentalism they propagate. In poverty stricken nations like Afghanistan, the intolerance and rigid fundamentalism that Qatar disseminates is pure poison. When religious intolerance and rigidity combines with poverty - with no cushioning from their adverse affects by wealth- women, girls, religious minorities and others are trapped in a nightmare.

The Qataris live in luxury. They rely on often exploited workers from other poorer countries where many have few to no rights. Many are the workers that have been killed in work related accidents to build the Qatari illusion of paradise. How these workers live and work has been kept hidden.

Qatar spends billions to keep the conflict with Israel alive, violent and inflamed. The peacemakers and realists that recognize that Israeli Jew and Palestinian Arab must come to terms with one another on a small piece of land are drowned out. Hamas leaders live like kings in Qatar, themselves cushioned with enormous wealth while ordinary Jew and Arab suffer.

Blessed are the peacemakers continues to be disregarded in a world consumed with hate, intolerance and violence.

While oceans are dying, the planet heats up, biodiversity collapses, plastics and poisons are everywhere, the enormous temporary wealth that oil and gas provides continues to not be used to create a safer, kinder, healthier world.

 

Qatar does everything it can to keep the Palestinian Arab conflict with Israel inflamed.
