The signatories of the statement have mentioned the wife of the Emir, known as "Sheikha Mouza Bint Nacer El Mesned ", whose appearances in various media, clothed contrary to the customs of Qatar which they considered "indecent". His children, they add, have monopolized power and property of Qatari through use of power.

#2 What's the surprise here. This is the Arab way,
"have monopolized power and property of Qatari through use of power". Saddam fell because he had done the same thing. Payoffs are the norm. If you want to do business in the Arab world this is all I have known how things get done. Look at Zimbabwe what has happened. They were the bread basket of Africa. They stole the farms and now they must import food. Land was given to the enablers.
