Are these allegations true or not? or is it true that a Russian hacker is behind all of these?

http://editi[Suspicious link removed]/2017/06/06/politics/russian-hackers-planted-fake-news-qatar-crisis/index.html

Recently, a few members of the Qatari royal family were kidnapped by militants (allegedly linked to the Al Qaeda) in Iraq, while on a hunting trip. Despite the advice from the United States and the rest of the GCC, the Qataris paid a ransom of $1 billion to get these individuals released. This was probably the trigger behind the latest round of sanctions.

It is not the Qataris who are going to get affected by all this sanctions. Many hundreds of thousands of migrant workers from my country are working in this nation. They are facing a lot of difficulties as a result of the airspace ban and diplomatic crisis. Even some of my relatives are working there, in the construction sector.

Here in the Philippines, all flights to Qatar have been hold by our government due to it's present problem. I don't know with other countries.

The payment to the militants will go a long in killing a lot of innocent people and the people who told them not to pay the ransom, were they ready to help in any way to release the people who were kidnapped.

Qatar has been known for paying the ransom and bribery allegations connected to the FIFA world cup. i wouldnt be surprised if they are unconsciously funding this jihadist through this ransom payments and the dealings of corrupt government officials 

i was read the news that the cause why arabian countries decide to Sever diplomatic relations because they thought Qatar was support for several terroris attack in Arab and after this incident Qatar people starting to panic and Invaded the supermarket to buy Daily necessities and store them because they had worry Qatar would not get supply from outside their country 

It seems Iran is under attack by some terrorist group, there has been a suicide bombing incident near the Parliament, there has been reports of shooting outside the parliament house. I am waiting to see who will take responsibility for this attacks.

Serious question, has your local/regional/national news reported on anything like Russian interference in this matter, specifically, that a Russian fake news story was the cause for all this?

U.S. officials believe that Russian hackers planted a fake news story in Qatar's state news agency, contributing to tensions among key U.S. allies in the Gulf, CNN reported Tuesday, citing U.S. officials.

The FBI sent investigators to Doha recently to aid the Qatari government in probing the reported incident, officials told CNN.

U.S. officials said that intelligence indicated Russian hackers were behind the intrusion that Qatar's government reported two weeks ago, according to the network.

This is still kinda breaking news (everything takes foooorever nowadays with the current state of the news cycle), and I can't get enough consensus on this in my research to form a valid opinion.

Is this being discussed in your news, and how, if you care to elaborate? Thank you in advance for your time.

What happen to the Iranian accusations and now we are talking about Qatar. Instability in the middle east is not good for business but the whip must be crack on anyone funding ISIS. 

Saudis didn't buy those heavy guns for nothing. They are going to use them on Qatar. Qatar was funding (or being accused at least) Muslim Brotherhood which is a criminal organisation and responsible for the instability of Egypt. They have ties in many other countries and USA is about to declare them as a terrorist organisation. For being the number 1 supporter country of this movement, Qatar is fckd.

In the middle East is constantly occurring attacks. We have become accustomed to it. I do believe all Muslims are terrorists and therefore the more they fight between themselves the less attacks will be in Europe.

Yes. The amount involved was huge, and most of it would be used by the Al Qaeda to purchase new weapons and to commit more terrorist attacks against the civilians. No one knows what happened. The Americans claim that they could have got the hostages released. But the Qataris are claiming that the risk was too high.

Things are changing rapidly in Middle East, and Qatar ban create lot of problems for travellers around the world with connecting flights.

There were lots of connecting flights as well as I have heard some disturbing news that the food is getting scarce day by day. There are lots of migrants and people of other countries working in Qatar, I just pray that they all will be safe.

Its media's fault again. Why would Qatar support such foolishness when they knew these things will happen. But then the neighboring countries believed the media. Qatar is a peaceful country been there several times, they will survive all these.

Your second link has been cendored - add a space.

I think it's a total failure of the strategy of the emir lf qatar.

The guy believed he could played the united nations, in his ass! Wtf did he believed? And warned he was... youthful ignorance.

Resolution:

Step 1 ride to the desert for a nice coffee.

2. Admit their is no shame to have tried to box in a way higher weight category.

3. Follow the older and way bigger caravan to safety.

4. Kick those turks

5. Save aljazeera independance, qatarairways, and the fields.

6. Kick those unwanted (hamas has maybe been elected democratically, hitler too, arrest those muslims borther hood behind the problems in egypt, and certainly in the west too.

Pride is a sign of weakness when it start to block the right move.

Medias fault? Really?

Qatar has been (along wish Saudis) major sponsor of global jihad. The current rift will provide time for Syrians and Iraqis to finally deal with Islamic State.

Who knows, this might slow down build up of islamist forces in Phillipines aswell. Jihad needs fighters and weapons, both cost a lot of money.

Latest news I read, there were a total of 9 countries already severing ties with Qatar. Lead by Saudi Arabia. I find this very disturbing to say the least, why is Middle East doing this to their neighbors? Does Saudi have proof that Qatar government of backing radical Islamist groups like the Muslim Brotherhood and ISIS? Does President Trump has a hand on this?

I know that this will really affect the citizens of Qatar and event though they are one of the richest countries, it still relies heavily on its neighbors for trade and The nation imports most of its food through its land border with Saudi, which is now closed. Even my country, the Philippines has already placed a travel ban on Qatar. This incident will have a global impact, specially to migrant workers.

 ;D

Simple, the Saudis understood (contrary to the russians) that this jihad or hijrah attempt at conquering the west will wake dark unstoppeable forces in the west once unleashed. That this technocracy of the united nations is just a big scam to make a little dollars and gain privileges for those running it. That all the obama team and his globalists friends bullshit of a one world gov is played by the us parriots, that china will never ever renonce its sovereignty without giving millenials long resistance. That Israel will not be defeated and that this stupid temple is theirs, they fucking build it.

The qatari young emir was tricked by the obamasters to believe in the take over by the united nations. SDR and co. Pathetic. Even more stupid is this link with the turkish fuckdolls...

I hoep the emir will be smart enough to not listen to the idiots telling him that with turkey or iranians support it will be okay... plesse those are traitors on the payroll of foreigners or blackmailed by the russians.

I find stupid to waste all that was achieved domestically for some stupid foreign policy.

All active shias are agents of iran whose goal is to subjugate and enslave sunni population. Again the obama team chose to be weak and let those idiots built nuke plants in the 21 century after fukushima and tchernobyl... just for some friends of putin make some dollars selling russian tech before leaving for london or miami, while iran may not be as sismic as japan, but still very shaky.

Nuke plants are not economically viable, otherwise one it would be possible to insure the industry. And two the full cycle is never accounted for (extraction of uranium, building, producing, disposing the waste and closing the buildings). And iran is super sunny...

I understand it's difficult to tell the emir that plan failed, specially for those advised it for so long.

Qatar (along Saudi Arabia) funds ISIS since the beginning. Perhaps Saudis sold out Qataris, when Trump demanded somebody be held responsible? Who knows. But your country will benefit immensely from it, Kemarit. Less money for jihadists in Phillipines and harder travel for them to get around.

Do it, don't be pussy, the others will be nice they have no interest in humiliations but the longer this charade is pursued the worst the outcome.

are clinton/obama funds in qatar?

Turkey is sending troops to back them up. Qatar has so many investments in Turkey and Turkey is simply protecting those investments. I don't understand though, are those investments really worth starting a World War? Nearly the whole world is united against Qatar except Iran. Even Russia don't support Qatar openly. (they are competitors in natural gas business)

There is no way that Turkey can actually gain something out of this. Insane.

erdogan wants to conquer makah... to become the sultan.

If i was there i would leave asap. Why take the chance for the dream of importance or what ever foreign policy independance or hubris.

Would you stay? And would you leave if it meant losing your job?

How Turkish troops can help Qatar. To fight with him no one is going. To win the diplomatic war is possible only through negotiations. In General, in recent years, Turkey allows itself too much. This can lead to very bad consequences.

It's really a saddened chapter for Qatar, they are a raising and progressive economy​ in the current world, but they are in a trap, this crisis is totally created by the US alliance, they have created a fake crisis, they basically want to a disorder Qatar by banning some diplomatic and economic strike.. it's getting worsening for the humanity, but no human organization can't raise their voice...
This is very unfortunate...

Probably all the middle East countries involved in financing terrorism. Qatar is no exception. I'm sure that the reason lies elsewhere. Most likely it's somebody's provocation. May be there is an attack on OPEC to destroy the unity and reduce the price of oil, and maybe Vice versa to create a hotbed of tension and to raise prices.

Most of the GCC nations are involved in terror financing, either directly or indirectly. But in the recent times, Qatar has emerged as the leader in this. Up until 2015, the Qataris were accused of propping up the ISIS in Syria and Iraq. They crossed the red line, and Trump retaliated by making use of the infighting between Qatar and KSA.

I think it's just stupid that they'd go to Iraq for a hunting trip considering the situation there. As for the ransom, well these are royalties, it's not like anyone can stop them from paying that ransom.


Every single one of them has been accused of funding terrorism as well as other Muslim groups. And not just Gulf states. Libya under Gaddafi funded Muslim secessionists here in the Philippines through Malaysia.

Some are claiming though that Qatar was singled out because of being chummy with Iran, which curiously got a terrorist bombing shortly after Qatar got slapped. I believe the attack was on the Khomenei Shrine.

The Arabs are obsessed with the aphrodisiac properties of the Houbara bustard. They believe that its meat is better than viagra or cialis. In the Arabian peninsula, this bird is extinct. The remaining populations can be found in countries such as Pakistan and Iraq. That is the reason why they make constant hunting trips to these countries.

As far as I concern in regarding the Qatar's diplomatic crisis. Knowing that I have relatives working in Qatar, This give us a feeling of fear especially for there safety. But, looking at it there're a no facts that supports the claims of other countries that they support any or relevant activities of a terrorist group such as ISIS, Al Queda and many more. This accusation *as I see* is an attack in directly to affect Qatar's economy. As we can see Qatar's economic growth from past and present year increases for almost 1,156% compares to other countries. Attacking Qatar's diplomatic affair with other countries has an huge effect in terms of their economy. Since Qatar's main source of income is Trading especially in line of Oil and Gas sector.

In cutting of the ties, Qatar's relationship to it's long time clients would be endangered. Having a bad reputation towards other will make a huge effect onto there economy. As I can see, Since Saudi is also supplying Oil and Gas. They're making claims that could give the an advantage to take over the market. Since Oil and Gas market are solely rotating on this two countries *Having a bigger percentage in terms of trading in the black market* *this is just my point view hoping not to receive any bad response*. But in the end, We have no right to say that Saudi and other countries are just attacking Qatar economically so that they could control the market. As we still don't have the hard facts about it. I'm just hoping that this crisis will be settled as soon as possible.

this is totally ridiculous, financing terrorism is not an issue, it is very clear that western think tankers always try to make a conflict among the Arabian countries, this is the process of taking possession of natural nad mineral resources. unfortunately, Saudi Arabia is the main culprit to make implement this plan...

It seems like Qatar was trying to improve its relations with Iran, and Saudi Arabia and the other Arab nations were opposed to it. This may be the real reason behind the sanctions. And regarding support for terrorism, Saudi Arabia is the main culprit. The Saudis accusing the Qataris of sponsoring terrorism is like pot calling kettle black.

For me all Muslim countries are involved in the financing of terrorism. Just each of them is funding your group. Diplomatic crisis in Qatar is nothing more than a struggle for spheres of influence, though of course the payment of one billion dollars to terrorists is very bad.

Ugh! After finding out the real reason they went there, I'm even less sympathetic now. The ransom payment should have gone bad that they'd end up being killed by the terrorist or during a crossfire. It's as despicable as the Chinese and their rhino horns and tiger penises and gall.

I know these Arab royalties are into really weird things but this is the height of stupidity, going after folk "medicine" despite the security situation there. They wouldn't have spent that much had they just bought cialis, haha.  ;D

the history of russian hacker seems a big bullshit......

On Near east there will always be such " games". Moslems, without offenses, people very difficult, with understanding of the world and what be going on around.
