News coming from the Gulf is disheartening! The blockade against Qatar by its neighbors, led by Saudi Arabia, has been on for more than a month now and shows no signs of reaching a conclusion.
The world has settled down to a lot of political alignments which have been taken for granted till now, but they seem to be changing, and new equations are being formed. But talk is also floating around that the crisis may even lead to war. And that thought is terrifying.
All wars bring agony to innocent peoples in the affected areas but most wars in the last three decades seems to be concentrated around oil producing countries, and this latest crisis is also unfolding in areas where oil is the main source of income.
But what are the real reasons?
The video below is from the Aljazeera network which is based in Qatar, the country under siege, so have a look for yourself as to what they think:

I wonder if this is a similar setup to ww1
With a specific area being a tinderbox for a global war of allied countries
I hope not, as it would be the end of the world this time around:)
The Middle East is a hot bed for war and the West just needs to completely pull out and abandon all assets there. In my opinion let them kill each other my fellow countrymen should not shed blood for a foreign government.
I think the west will be involved as it is about oil.
Greetings for friend steemit all ... your post is very interesting to follow .. my prayers always give success.

I live in the middle east, from my perspective all this is but a agenda to fool the west, conducted by the GCC countries: of may be something major they planning. Do you remember Qatari highness saying 'Trump was my friend but he supported Saudi for political reasons, so how can he be my friend?' And remember how Trump offered to peace out the tensions between Qatar the neighboring states, he was laughed off? ( Some of you will say because hes Trump) That's not all, I believe its how the GCC countries hide something big from the West, making scenes and news for the Western media and something else totally happening below the cover not all related to the cover up! Talking about politics, I also want you to look at the worlds largest democracy proceedings in quest of a new-age nation @ https://steemit.com/democracy/@alexkoshy/the-largest-democracy-in-the-world-moving-forward-or-falling-apart-with-its-newly-enforced-gst
