According to Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Rai, Qatar has threatened to expel 30,000 Lebanese as a response to the arrest of Qatari national Abdul Aziz Al Atiyya by the Lebanese authorities. Al Atiyya reportedly left Lebanon few days ago and his charges were dropped. He was accused of forming a terrorist cell. [Link]

I always say we’re in a sh!t hole… but this one seems to have no bottom!!!
I do hope that you’re not hinting that the Lebanese government should soften its stance on guys like Al Atiya due to threats like the one proposed above, just look at the nationalities of suspects apprehended, this whole ‘tourist’ country mindset is causing lots of trouble if you ask me.
