If you can't convince him with your ideas just strip, it seems this is the best way to convince a Khaliji

These guys sheb3aneen, no need to strip. You have to remember that most of the Gulf works in a tribal fashion, were people honor friendships and trust, and look to some extent with suspicion to foreigners even though they are granted high salaries and live a lavish life in their deserts.

In light of that, we have micheal aoun (I purposefully do not capitalize his name) who is one of the biggest traitors in the history of the Arab world, who quite a significant part of his damned life time cursing Syria - you know the rest of the rhetoric.

So before talking about stripping etc, have the guts to hold your mentor accountable for his corruption, the unjustified deaths of many, and last and least of what he has, his manners.

Question:

Is Qatar a democratic country?

Neither of them are democratic. But Lebanon on the other hand IS.

They make presidential elections in Iran...Am not saying I agree on their way it is more likely a dictatorship, all the Arabic world including Iran do not have democracy but at least you can practice your Christianity there plenty of churches...At least those arabic countries let'em stop lecturing us about democracy! n all of them stop interfering in other countries business for their political agendas...Democracy starts @school not in bloodshed ;)

why do we bother if other countries are democratic or not while we do not have democracy at home?
as long as we are under the hegemony of the arms of the syro/itanians we do not have democracy.
so lt us first look for democracy in our country.

Qatar is a well publicised monarchy, they make no excuses about it, they dont hide away from it and neither are they ashamed about it. As for Iran, they tell the world that they are a democracy, but the truth is far from it. We saw how Iran exercised democracy in the latest presidential elections, the only free will that was permitted was that of soldiers freely using their guns against protestors.

I just did some research on Democracy in Iran.... here is an excerpt(news of the day):
In Iran today, 117 women were arrested, and 59 of them stood trial for not meeting the Islamic dress code of the Iranian regime. This is just the beginning of a Tehran campaign for the enforcement of Iran's Islamic dress code........ it is a full page article.
