Expatriates residing in Qatar and in possession of a Qatari residence visa will also not be eligible for visa on arrival in the UAE, Etihad spokesman said in an email.

Yepp, but Iranian revolutionary guards in the backyard of 10 K US troops? Can't imagine that this is possible.

Historically EK and QR had a "gentleman's agreement" in which pilots could not leave one company for the other. In my view that new situation may be beneficial for EK Boeing guys tired of the lack of leave and very heavy rosters.

Well I'm sure I'm not the only one praying to every God there possibly could be that this is fake news. The region would not survive this. It also seems to be moving waayyy to quickly over something that really requires nothing more than a stern telling off and a promise not to do that again.

Yeah but numerous stern telling offs haven't worked in the past. And now the Saudis are all pumped up since they started a military confrontation with Yemen. They are in fighting mode and want to take care of all their problems at once.
If the Saudis believe that Qatar's help or at least their less than complete hostile attitude toward Iran is in some way helping the Houthis in Yemen then as part of their plan in Yemen they might well want the Qatari's to quit their independent foreign policy immediately. Therefore, attacking Qatar could well be part of the overall Yemen policy.
If Trump has green lighted this the Americans aren't going to do anything, they'll just sit and watch from their air base.

So the Saudis are at the border. Meanwhile 10000 trigger happy US troops, freshly terrorized Iranian republican guard and now wannabe dictator Erdogans Turkish Army will all share a plot of land of just 4000 square miles.
