  • Zero food shortages... ZERO, none, nothing, nada...
  • My flights have all run according to schedule..
  • And Hamad was busy as usual..
So I think the biggest pain is:
  • Psychological: the fact that the Qatari looked down upon by their peers
  • Practical: not being able to fly direct to particularly Dubai is a pain (parties )
  • Financial: Saudi is a big market for QR
On the up side:
  • being called a sponsor of terrorists by one of the biggest sponsors of terrorism is almost a compliment....
  • The fact that Al Jazeera is seen as a pain by the UAE and Saudi means that they are doing a good job in uncovering stuff that our "partners in the fight against terrorism" would not like the world to know

You do realize it takes time for the consequences of a blockade to take effect...

Things are not all well in the QR castle, it's a dictatorship that exploits cheap cheap labour just like their neighbours
