The withdrawal of the ambassador of Qatar from Egypt, to emphasize the profound disagreements between Doha and Cairo, on the occasion of the bombing, that the country has performed on the Egyptian Libyan territory, in response to the killing of Coptic Egyptian citizens, highlighted the deep rift in place between Arab allies of the United States. That is why the summit held at the White House between President Obama and the Emir of Qatar Hamad bin Tamin al-Thani, has taken on a major importance, to reiterate the strategic ties between the two countries. The position of Qatar and other Gulf monarchies has often been the subject of analysis and subsequent criticism, for the support given to Islamic groups. The same caliphate is probably grew up with the financing of the Persian Gulf countries, of Sunni Islam, in order to destabilize Syria's Assad, natural ally of the Iranian Shiites. The evolution of the Islamic state, then brought the danger Saudi border, clear sign of a phenomenon out of control of the initial lenders, who, perhaps, thought to have a total control over the fundamentalist militia, initially pledged to fight the government in Damascus and then have expanded into Iraqi territory. The attitude of Qatar against Egypt has been a cause for alarm for Washington, who saw new dangers in the alliance against the caliphate. The United States has defended the action Egyptian, well pleased to have found an ally, for more matrix Arabic, although led by a military dictatorship, willing to engage in the field, both with aerial operations, which with ground troops, against the new front opened by the Islamic state. The attitude of Doha has raised more than a suspicion about the true intentions of Qatar, which gave the impression of supporting the Islamic militias in Libya. This is not a problem recently, the United States needs an alliance based on the Arab countries, which should not be subject to cracking, must, that is, form a united front against fundamentalism. The support of the Egyptian, Jordanian like is important, but it's been driven by regimes or governments, while declaring that Muslims are essentially secular. From this point of view, to combat the involvement of the caliphate Persian Gulf monarchies, which have a greater involvement with religion, ensures greater barrier against the reasons of the Islamic State. For this reason the meeting between Obama and the Emir of Qatar is part of the US strategy to maintain a high level of cooperation with states, which, although formally allies, pursuing a foreign policy of a different line from the White House. The exponent of Qatar reaffirmed his country as guaranteeing support to groups of moderate Muslims only, and in this course of action is probably agreed with the US government, however, as part of Libya must check out what Qatar intends for moderate groups, given the preponderance of the Islamic State. It should be recalled that in the last election Libyan winning formation was to secular and who was forced into exile in Tobruk just by Islamists, who did not like the verdict of the polls, those are probably supported by the government of Qatar. This meeting was not liked by Republicans, including the refusal of the American President to meet with Israeli Prime Minister invited by Congress, where the Republican party has a majority. Obama justified his refusal with the intention not to influence the election campaign in Israel. About the situation in Palestine, Qatar has expressed its willingness to play a leading role in mediating with the group Hamas, whose leaders reside in the country.
