All right, let’s see if we can figure out the pros and cons of the Qatari hit.

On the plus side of the hit is the fact that Qatar has been trying to succumb Europe by buying into all kinds of organizations. It’s been a pretty open economic Jihad. The leadership likes football, so a lot of the money has been spend on that.

However, the European elite has been quite willing to engage in the corruption, so you can’t really blame the Qataris too much.

On the flip side, there is the fact that the Qataris are Arabs, so they work and cooperate with all the other Arabs, not to mention that as much as the other Arabs are distant family to us Jews, but still family, it’s pretty rude to attack a cousin. ESPECIALLY if that cousin looses face, which is exactly what happened in the attack. The Qataris lost a lot of face.

It’s pretty rude, and you can say a lot about the Arabs, but rudeness is not something Arabs do or like.

Between family, the respect and support is very important.

So either we see them as potential enemies or we see them as, what they are, a cousin that we need to respect.

There is family feuds, yet humiliation is always the very LAST resort in a patriarchal society.

There are niceties that we should adhere to.

You can analyze all you want the attack on a material level. Yet wars in between family is not about material things, it’s the feelings the lack or adherence to loyalty.

We should get to a point, where we are at peace with our neighbors.

Spitting them in their faces, will not accomplish that.

So, at least from my perspective, I put forward an excuse for this action, and hope we can get along as friends and ultimately family.

Because family we are, the question is; will we be friends as well?

G-d bless the will to make Israel last for a thousand years.
