So no evidence at all, just a hunch. Roger.

Let me get this straight - you're positing that Qataris might think (with some reason) Australians to be hypocritical in expressing outrage at the Doha incident because Australia is enforcing travel restrictions. From a country that flipped it's lid because of some cartoons.
You sir, are a magnificent troll.
