    Honestly, a boycott of the US after going along with Qatar means even more in the discussion.

    Because it means the US is considered to be worse than a theocratic oligarchy

      Define “worse.” Qatar definitely didn’t threaten to invade EU territory and annex it.

        No but they did build the entire World Cup stadium complexes with actual slaves. Only a few hundred died and everyone still went

        That would be one example of the US being worse.

        Just in general, the US seems to treat both Europe and its own population worse, compared to Qatar.

        And that’s assuming all the slavery accusation of Qatar are 100% true.
