The crisis in the middle east may be driven by natural gas after all not the financing of terrorist groups. Qatar has been blockaded by saudia arabia , emirates , bahrain and Egypt for financing terrorist groups in the middle east and sponsoring terrorism worldwide. However , qatar has refused a 13 point "demands" list provided by the coalition to restore relationship.
There is a hidden force and interests which play major role in this crisis. Qatar and iran so far hold the largest percentage of the global reserve of natural gas . Largest natural gas field in qatar is jointly operated by Iran and both hold 31% of natural gas global reserve.
Iran is an ally of russia , russia is an ally of china , so these 4 countries together hold about 51% of the global reserve.
Qatar is the second biggest exporter after russia , natural gas is proving itself to be the source of energy for the future. Natural gas is clean and environment friendly and it is more efficient and might be taking over oil as primary source for energy sooner than we think.
So maybe it is all about the demand of natural gas which will be soaring over the next few decades .
