Disinformation experts have exposed an account “masquerading” as a Qatari news source that has spread false reports on an alleged Qatari threat to cut its gas supplies to the world if Israel continues to bomb the besieged Gaza Strip.
You didn’t wait your 24 hours
Anyways, you should know that’s bullshit news, you think Qatar is going to cut off its only source of revenue? You think OPEC would ever do something that stupid? They want money, cutting of supplies to one of their biggest customers would be economic suicide.

You're right, in this case I didnt wait the 24 hours. I've been waiting on this shoe to drop so I ran with it. Heres the thing though, Qatar is tied to Hamas, thats where their leadership resides. They can afford to sit back and wait out the west. They are one of the richest counties in the world. All they would have to do is stop selling oil for a few months and it would shut down the west.
for what its worth it wasnt US/NATO sources I was looking at

It wouldn’t really shut down the west, yes Qatar is wealthy, but they are wealthy because of oil. Imagine America shut down its economy for a “few months” it would wreck havoc on our economy. Next Qatar really can’t do shit unilaterally without OPECs approval, and OPEC wouldn’t do that. On top of that Qatar is one of the biggest allies to America and the west. We have an extremely strong and stable relationship with them.
The US has officially designated Qatar as a major non-NATO ally enhancing the partnership between Doha and Washington and giving the Gulf country special economic and military privileges in its relationship with the US. This marks Qatar's third Gulf ally, following Kuwait and Bahrain.

I guess we got to make some sacrifices for a strategic and powerful partner in the Middle East.
Edited: Qatar has done quite a lot in an effort to combat terrorist residing in their country. Most have left by 2015.
Edited: Qatar has been accused of supporting Hamas, the Palestinian group designated as a terrorist organization by a number of countries. Qatar denies these allegations, stating that it does not support Hamas' political position, and that its policy is to help facilitate constructive engagement between Hamas and the Palestinian Authority

They should be worried about the US. It’s time we tell them to shut up, do what they’re told, or we’ll fuck them in their asses like we did to Iraq.
I was watching a video recapping the Suez Canal crisis in 1956 when Britain and France invaded Egypt to secure this vital shipping connection. The Untied States and Russia both used their influence to end that occupation and return control to it's Arab leaders, which was only the beginning of our support of third world despots in the region over western interests. The Israel crisis is another, these same countries now pose a threat to an important ally and I think it's vital that Israel end that threat once and for all. In this I agree with you that the United States should be using it's influence to cow the miserable defiance of the region that spits in the face of the West while begging for it's money and support.
You have to be one of the dumbest people on the planet to believe what you are spoon fed.
I'm guessing you read it on businessinsider.com again? You didn't link it.. so it's either that or maybe moveon.org?
You and Soykern get your retard stepping points from the same source.
