Now they go about killing fisherman

Regarding the post"

"fubar said Kill the Americans? Why not ...

Kill the Americans? Why not just kick them out?

It's obvious that they aren't wanted here"

I am American and have been in Qatar for almost one year. I admit, I was hesitant on moving here, America has made us terrified of the Middle East. But since moving here, my opinion of the Middle East has changed drastically. I love it here. I love it more than being in America. I have no problem following the customs here. I enjoy seeing how families in the Middle East are united and spend quality time together. Driving past the Corniche on a weekend and seeing the families in the parks spending time with one another, this is not something I see in America. This may be a desert country, but it is beautiful in my eyes. I am loving that I am witnessing this city grow with beautiful buildings, green grass, flowers. Just as there are some bad people in the Middle East, there are also good ones. The same goes for America. You have the good and the bad. People here are much more friendlier, they work harder, they are committed to their families being close. I know many, many, many Americans who have nothing good to say about the Middle East and to all of them, I say that they are blind. I tell them how pleasant it is here and that they should visit sometime. I truly believe Americans think the entire Middle East is nothing but terrorists. This is so far from the truth. I enjoy seeing so many Middle Easterners wearing their thobes and abayas. When I hear the call to prayer, it is beautiful music to my ears. I am lucky to be here in such a great country. Not all Americans are bad, I know I'm not.

Going by the comments above,looks like greensolar is the only guy with right set of brains here.

If you play with fire you get burnt and if you come in the range of firing during military exercises; you get shot. Is that so hard to understand?

'Am jst wondering why these fishermen ignore the warning.Much more,they're aware that its a warship,and yet they intend to go near. Warship or not,even if a human being or an individual will be approached by someone u didnt know and would go near,what will be ur reaction???

It was a much different situation than the doha roundabouts. Warships cannot forgive erratic drivers

Precisely i think u've got the brain.I cannot see the logic of some comments here.Why on earth this boat approached the warship? What is there purpose in going near?Was the man killed and the other companions in that boat all of same nationality?Were they just trying to fish beside the warship?Even if its not a US warship,if that situation arise,theres no doubt,same action/reaction would be done.

Just sharing idea,may peace be all upon us.

1. Don't drive your boat toward an American, Russian, Chinese, Iran, Japan navy ship.

2. If you hear a warning shot (50mm).... it is an ACTUAL WARNING. Not a horn toot

thank god you also feel the pain of killing of innocent Pakistanis by US.. Only when you saw killing of an indian.. Plzz feel same for all the human beings.. nationality dosent matter always "being human"..

Some of the contributors here on Qatar Living seem to have as much (or as little) brain power as those fishermen who got shot at. Simple fact of the matter is you will get shot if you approach a patrolling navy vessel without permission. Regardless of whether its an American warship or an Indian one.

According to the fishermen no warning shots were fired. Looks like Indian fishermen are cheap targets for the Americans and Italians.

I wish I could read books, Can you summarize it here? :)

ingenioro, we then take the countries resouces as payment

Heres a book recomendation

http://www.economichitman.com/

I read it in two days by the Pool at the Barcelo in Mismaloya..I'm going there right now btw

I am opposed to all those occupations..Like most Americans i'm willing to pay $10/gallon for gas and have a diminished economy just to get outta everybodies business. We could have bought Iraq for what we spent there...Our military is looting our treasury

Manna Pro, What if any country refuse to pay you back? What else those weapons can do other then blasting the planet 100 times?

"ajay devgan said bomb america uk israel ...'

------------------------------------------------------

You're going to need a lot more bombs my friend, lol

If we stop making bombs today, and you pour everything you got into bomb making...I might start getting nervous in about 50 years

But seriously Ajax...Violence is not the answer

Just calm yourself down..Take up golf or something, life is too short to go through it like this..Allah didn't put you here to be this miserable for 80 years

It's the law of the jungle my friend..lol We follow that one!

Did your parents teach you anything? You're very nieve

Nuclear bombs? Who said that? We have enough conventional weapons to blow up the planet 100 times over..We control countries by getting them in debt, infiltrating thier politics, and as a last resort, we use our (conventional) military.

Let's pray the US doesn't get involved in Burma and make more problems there.

Everything is better when the US stays out of these situations.

If they felt threatened then yes. The security of not only the Americans but also the UAE may have been at risk. There are laws on the sea, and if the fisherman failed to answer the warnings then the face the concequences.

But if Romney gets elected you better cancel that vacation to Teheran.

Manna Pro, They are already doing it, change of face won't bring the change! Or you think the other guy gonna use nuclear bombs?

I mean here in Qatar shaktimaan.

Qatar needs to buy the US Congress from Israel. That would be a good investment.

Not in my lifetime....and i'm lovin this life

Lighten up Ajay..Don't spend your entire life obsessing over stuff like this. It makes you into a person nobody wants to be around

Until and unless there are IRANI-QATARI working there, then no chance, lol

They better hurry.

They have until about November before the war will start, right in time for the US elections.

The Israelis will drop some bombs on Palestine to convince Amercans the world isn't safe and to vote Republican.

If Obama doesn't win I dare say a lot of people will be screwed.

Romney is already planning his attacks on Iran. If that happens Qatar will grateful that there is a US missile shield.

Hopefully Ras Laffan won't be too badly hit by the Iranians.

There are rumours that Starbucks' Latte with extra milk and superheated decaf has additives which slowly make you take on hedonistic tendencies including singing La Carcacha out of tune :O(

Obama is a corporate prostitute, he's bought and paid for by the banks and he works for them, not the people of the United States of America..He sold us out, but

I'll vote for him over that unabashed corporate whore thats running against him. Understand? He's the lesser of two evils. You better hope Obama wins because Romney will start droppin bombs on some of you the day after the election.

just kidding, lol

I think

Manna Pro, You mean you want to Kill Obama also? :p

Ajay is starting to make me want our government to just go ahead with thier plans of killing every Arab on earth...

Better avoid Pepsi and coke from now on. Thankfully it's rare here so easy to have something else.

I feel like Starbucks. Or is that too evil and American?

britexpat said Manna pro.. ...

well said..

----------------------------------------------------

Thanks..I apologized and displayed sincre compassion and understanding, but they don't want to hear it. They are just like the ignorant Americans who blame every Arab for 911.

I hate Obama and Bush...So..Youre not upsetting me at all

lol

ANYWAY

I went fishing on this beach early this morning...The Darado is incredible

Just took these

Can't wait until your next joke!!! go ahead...lol

Wow a world full of azzholes...hehehehehe

Depends how long I let it stew Brit ;)

TB, ordering from Al Naemi? If so? Yes plz! :)

Will that be one lump or two ?

It might not be a troll. But it seem that some one told wrong about religion on one of the forum and hence situation has gone out of hand.

Cup of tea anyone?

Go on monkey blabber whatever you want to make yourself happy, am not responding, happy?

We were invited ....

so 'monkey' was that you?

fubar i think u shouldnt take a troll seriously..

hahahaha............one dude is out of control, call 997

Kill the Americans? Why not just kick them out?

It's obvious that they aren't wanted here.

well said..

As Sun Tzu said - "If you do not seek out allies and helpers, then you will be isolated and weak."

Stop cryin...I wish it wasn't but its a dog eat dog world and the big dog always eats first- you should have learned that a long time ago.

Its never gonna be fair

Lol Shakitimaan.

Good point :-)

hahahaha..........hidden camera prank...lol

Gulf rulers love AMERICA but not AMERICAN

We don't beg for oil, we just take it cause we can. Thats human nature. If you were the only super power on earth how do you think you'd treat us? Much worse i'm sure.

If your monarchs didn't deal with us we'd just bomb the entire middle east back into the stone age..I don't agree with that, but thats the way it is my friend, so don't blame your rulers, they are just doing what they have to do to remain an independant country

Kerala is part of India is it not? Do you mean Kerala removed itself from India and made a new country?

Is Dubai a part of the UAE or a client state and a satellite of the USA. What was the american military doing in Dubai waters. Were they chasing pirates or terrorists or were they in Dubai for the nightlife and the pretty asian girls

why do Christan eat pig n make sex with them when not allowed in bible'

-----------------------------------------------------

I had 2 for 1 Ribs at El Tortitos yesterday and they were incredible..Almost orgasmic. I have a picture here somewhere? My x wife is frying bacon now - You eat goats and monkey brains while we eat hogs, whats the difference? Animals are animals

He was a from Kerala, not India

Why will it never happen Brit?

We are led to believe that the US is a bunch of war mongering oil thieves who are all drunk pig eating rapists. Or something.

Which is really strange, because the rulers of the Gulf give them so much business and oil and deals and defense contracts.

It's almost as if the Gulf monarchs want the US and their alcohol and their pork and their armies and their navies to be here.

How strange...

When authorities say stop you should stop the boat and do not accelerate the speed. Why would you approach a military ship with such speed? To ask for Paratha or Tea? To go picture taking with the ship?

The US Navy is wary of the surroundings, Bahrain accuses Iran of tension to it's territory. As an ally they must check all things specially suspicious. A boat can be used to smuggle things to cause conflict.

Security measures must be taken. Unfortunately it caused someone's life.

Valid point..

It will never happen.

Why are there even so many US military bases and military personnel and navy boats all over the Gulf?

If the rulers here don't like them they should tell them to leave.

BUT

Hundreds of millions of Americans don't agree with the policies of thier government, just like many jews don't like what the state of Israel is doing. Hate the governments, don't hate the people.

If they had responded to any of the many warning they were given, the US would not have needed to resort to taken lethal action.

Does this still give rights to US in DUBAI TERRITORY to shoot any one they like

Think how many more people the US can kill now that the Qataris have let them build a missile defense shield based in Qatar.

"why not kill all the Americans and Britishers they r just a piece of Mod Removed"

-------------------------------------------------------

Because that would be a terrible idea for too many reasons to get into right now. My little kids would be appalled by the killing of these fishermen. I think most Americans would be if they heard about it, unfortunately we never hear about stuff like this. Our media is owned by weapons producers and corporations dependant on oil who have a vested interest in keeping us in a constant state of war and terror. Were just ignorant, thats all

As is their usual nature and practice they come up with all this funny excuses once their evil deed has been done and exposed

fubar why is screwing kids allowed in Christianity

“In accordance with Navy force protection procedures, the sailors on the USNS Rappahannock used a series of non-lethal preplanned responses to warn the vessel before resorting to lethal force,’’

If they had responded to any of the many warning they were given, the US would not have needed to resort to taken lethal action.

When the americans go about killing innocent people and fisherman around the globe they call it accidental killings but when they or their people get killed they call it terrorist attacks. The americans are the ones who are responsible for spreading hatred, fear and insecurity around the world. They made a mess of countries like the philippines and Vietnam earlier

I'm just quoting a recent court ruling in another case where an Indian was accidentally killed.

http://www.thepeninsulaqatar.com/qatar/201200-court-faults-fines-school-in-girls-death.html

U missed Fubar's point Alexam.

fubar.. Why is life that cheap now? Why only fine and suspension? It should be more than that. Just because they are the super power they can kill anyone and pay the fine for that.

Very topical Fubar - good point and well made.

Maybe they should fine the US Navy 50,000 qar and give a suspended sentence?

That's the going rate for accidentally killing people isn't it?

As a born and bred American citizen of the U.S. of A, I want to apologize for this. It's totally uncalled for.

Shameful

... and the funny thing is they go about killing innocent and peace loving civilians around the world and then go about justifying their criminal misdeeds and its no wonder that the people around the world think of the americans as the actual criminals and terrorists

What would you say about this incident where a poor fisherman is killed by US NAVY SHIP. What about his wife and kids now.

Indian Foreign Minister S.M. Krishna called the incident "unfortunate" and said he hoped that "the necessary action will be initiated".

I doubt much will be done. the most they can hope for is compensation for the families.
