«The data (again, to reinforce it)
🔸Qatar controls 31.81% of global liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports. It was one of the big winners of the Biden-Putin meeting, which took all the EU's money. Its major distributors: 3-4 Greek shipping families, all sponsors of the regime here.
🔸The Emir of Qatar, relying on oil exports, has become one of the world's largest investors, with shares in the world's largest banking institutions, including Deutsche Bank, Credit Suisse, and Barclays.
Qatar is also the largest shareholder in Volkswagen, has a stake in Harrods, and owns major airlines and airports, such as British Airways and Heathrow, as well as St. Petersburg Airport.
🔸Qatar's portfolio includes the Paris St. Germain soccer team, the Italian fashion house Valentino, and the Dutch company Shell. We also narrowly escaped losing Zakynthos's “Shipwreck” beach, which Samaras had promised them.
🔸Qatar and Turkey have signed a defense cooperation agreement, with Turkey maintaining a military base of 3,000 troops in Qatar. Its construction companies carried out projects worth $13.5 billion for the organization of the World Cup, while Qatar has already invested over $1 billion in Turkey's military industry (the main project being the production of a new generation of Turkish tanks, if ever built). Another 20 billion has been invested in infrastructure projects and the defense industry of its partner, such as the Bosphorus bypass canal and the Montreux Convention.
Qatar and Turkey planned to connect with a natural gas pipeline, a project inspired by Hillary Clinton, through areas of Iraq and Syria still controlled by ISIS. For many serious analysts, this pipeline (which was blocked by Trump, originally an Obama project, and finally buried by Biden) was in direct competition with the Iran-Syria (Putin's project with the support of China). And it was the real cause of the war in Syria!
Until they see what will happen, Turkey is moving forward with Qatari LNG (7-fold increase in imports in the last quarter) since the flow from Russian pipelines ended with the sanctions.
But all the plans of the Qatar-Erdogan alliance went down the drain! The Israel-UAE agreement was essentially made to cancel that pipeline from Hilary in favor of another one that will exit into the Mediterranean via Jordan and Israel. The logical continuation of this is now EastMed, and Erdogan has fallen flat on his face in his attempts to cancel it or divert it through the occupied territories in Cyprus to his own people, in order to hold the critical valves for blackmail. What will ultimately happen with Kastellorizo is crucial!
🔸Turkey and Qatar are co-financing these plans with 3,000 Islamist rebels in Somalia and an unknown number of mercenaries in Libya, Mozambique, and Syria, while their support for the Palestinian Hamas and far-right Israeli parties (!) should come as no surprise, given the activities of... Papastavrou and they were also watching Tsipras with a Predator since 13.
🔸Qatar has been accused many times (most recently in June by US authorities) of laundering ISIS money through its investments. The same applies to Erdogan through the Halkbank banking scandal, which is still pending trial in the US.
A year ago, Qatar gave a kiss of life to the Turkish economy, which is one step away from collapse, with an exchange of 15 billion Turkish lira. Fresh from its mint, worthless. Another 20 billion followed from Putin in exchange for a nuclear power plant he is building for Moscow to operate in Akkuyu, opposite Cyprus.
🔸In Qatar, among other things, there is the largest private collection of stolen antiquities in the world, where antiquities dealers from all over the world do business, you know, the ones whose grandmothers found them in the fields (see comment #1 for details) or other looters in Iraq.
🔸In addition to this laundry, today (note: the article was written on Sunday, November 20, the opening day of the World Cup) marks the kickoff for yet another one, with the participation of the sinful FIFA. In air-conditioned stadiums and facilities that cost, they say, 300 billion $, 11+11 will kick the ball around for 3 weeks, in an attempt to conceal the big money laundering operation that is taking place across the globe among the powerful figures in football, through the buying and selling of soccer stars or by recording losses in their clubs, to be laundered through television rights managed by FIFA.
The price: The death of 6,500 migrant workers in accidents during the construction of the Pharaonic projects, a legacy left behind for camels to play ball.
But also to achieve this, and to whitewash one of the most authoritarian regimes on the planet, which now wants to appear in the post-globalization era with a different face, hiding all of the above.
What exactly don't you understand about “what's going on” today?»
