I expect all this kerfuffle to be sorted soon as the GCC , and the rest of Sunni Islam including most importantly Egypt cannot afford to let Qatar drift out of their collective orbit and sphere of influence and into Iran`s. There is too much geopolitical $$$ at stake , and therefore the Emir Sheikh Tamim will no doubt eat a bit of humble pie and ice cream , ( that is , only behind a face saving curtain , as it is Ramadan ) , they`ll all bump noses and all will be happy again soon. Saudi just flexing it`s muscles and seeing who is aboard , kind of a trial run in advance of the final eventual showdown with Persia in the coming months. At least I sure hope this is the case , because the alternative will have global implications economically , security wise and we can`t forget about the football ! ( well , actually yes we can.) The Emir will not want to be remembered as the guy who lost his country. Better to eat pie than none at all.
