I guess there holding it in 2022 and there's no manual labor workforce in that country so they are importing people in from other countries. Bad living conditions and extreme heat people are dying. It's been all over espn radio.

What I don't get is why geico sponsors a high speed cat but they won't insure our recreational boats if you have over 1000 HP.

actually Qutar is the country that is hosting the 5 terrerorist that O'great one in the WH just released. they are such good friends of the USA that they are going to let them wonder freely, then return to Afganistan after a year.
in case you missed the tone, I am not a fan of Qutar no matter how much money they spend here.
