  1. > The officers were jailed on charges that have not been made public.

    Wow. Gonna execute them without saying why.

  2. They were working for a defense service provider owned by an Omani national, and he was arrested alongside them. He was released but they got sentenced to death. No other info was disclosed.

  3. Fairly senior officers too (equivalent to captains and majors in the army). Since the charges were not even made known, it isn’t likely to be a “normal” criminal accusation. Sounds like a diplomatic disaster in the making.

  4. Qatar really showing their anti Israeli colors publicly now.

    On a somewhat related note, I wonder how long until Mossad or Israeli cruise missiles hit Hamas’s headquarters there. Before Israel wouldn’t want to stir up things with an attack in another “neutral ” nation. But now, Israel is going to make post Munich operations look like a f&$king tea party.

  5. If it ends up happening then all diplomatic relations should be stopped. Qatar should be seen as what they are, funded the whole Hamas operation, gave shelter to its leadership and has wild as F media outlet AJ which is super toxic and propaganda mostly.

  6. Don’t even go public with what the charges were to begin with. It’s really crazy the types of countries we are willing to do business with.

  7. Indian foreign minister said, We can’t say much about this because of the “confidential nature of the proceedings” . Seems like Qatar is right about India spying for Israel.

  8. hey cool!
    let’s have the winter olympics there!
    that makes perfect sense!

  9. Middle eastern countries cry foul when “rules based order” isn’t followed but throw the whole damn book out every second hour when it suits them. The fucking hypocrisy.

    I hope the renewable energy transition happens ASAP to deprive these countries of the little damn leverage they have.

  10. A very rotten country, this is the govt that sponsors al-jazeera.

    Keep that in mind when you see that networks propaganda.

  11. Don’t worry, I’m sure another FIFA tourney will smooth things over…

  12. If it’s true, obviously Qatar has the right to punish them – but giving out a death sentence for espionage is crazy.

  13. Qatar should be a pariah, not accepted on the world stage.

  14. Maybe this is proxy war because India politically supports Israel (but also sending aid to Gaza BTW). An expression of their anger at India.

  15. Maybe this was an assassination squad that actually got caught. No doubt there’s Sikh separatists there as well. Modi is putting Golda to shame.

  16. Look at all the Indians feeling upset that a foreign power is suspiciously and without proper evidence executing Indian citizens. Aren’t you the same guys, who were supporting India’s execution of Nijjar in Canada, coz Indian govt “feels” he was a terrorist. Now suddenly you have all become paragons of rule of law and believe in transparent adjudication of guilt.

  17. I was scammed by a hotel in the Qatar airport. That’s the only knowledge or experience I have with them. Fuck Qatar.

  18. This is horrific, but the first paragraph made me laugh:

    >**In a setback to India’s efforts at securing their release**, eight former personnel of the Indian Navy, arrested in an alleged case of espionage, were **handed the death sentence** by a court in Qatar Thursday.

  19. Does India even have submarines? I kinda find it hard to believe they were qualified for “stealth subs”.

  20. I’m assuming they are still Indian and just ex-naval officers.
