Qatari relief and medical teams have helped in humanitarian operations and medical aid following the war in southern Lebanon. The Qatari teams have also been helping in restoring two hospitals in Bint Jubeil and a government hospital in Sidon. |

| #5 A promise of $$$ by an Arab Gov. is worth a lot---just ask Paleos. |

| #4 Something is wrong there. Bint Jubeil is a Shiite center. Arab governments are hot at Syria for their alliance with Shiites. Qatar is totally Sunni. I have seen video from that occupied Lebanon' terror center, and it is nothing but a pile of rubble. When there was nothing but Hizbollah there, the IDF flattened it with artilery, sector by sector. Few Israeli troops targeted the missile launchers; most were in Lebanon to destroy Hizbollah infrastructure. And they did. |

| #3 You'd think they'd avoid the symbolism and pick another town. Perhaps if they just built it in the traditional japanese style with wood and paper it would be OK. :-) |

| #2 Hummmm -- Q: What is Texas A&M University at Qatar? A: This new campus is a branch of Texas A&M University, a prestigious university located in College Station, Texas, USA. Q: Where is this new campus located? A: Texas A&M University at Qatar is located in Education City, Doha, Qatar. Q: What degrees are offered at Texas A&M University at Qatar? A: This campus is offering four distinct undergraduate engineering degrees in Chemical, Electrical, Mechanical, and Petroleum Engineering. http://www.qatar.tamu.edu/about_faq.aspx This made lots of news, locally, at least, when this happened. Aggies are far smarter than Qatarians. Maybe, the Texas A&M professors of engineering have been teaching these Qatarians how to build and rebuild, inferior structures? Talk about your conspiracy theories! But, I'm afraid, this conspiracy of teaching faulty engineering, is one that just won't fly. But it is disturbing to know, Qatar is rebuilding Hezb's main ratholes. |

| #1 It was a big mistake to leave one splinter standing upright in this shithole. As one of Hezb's main ratholes, it should have been burnt to the ground. |
