Qatar vs Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt et al

Saudi Arabia, Egypt, UAE, Bahrain, Yemen, the Maldives have cut ties with Qatar over allegations of supporting terrorist groups in the region as well as being a destabiliser. One thing that strikes me is:
Iranian news are low voiced over the terrorist bit but more than suggests it's all a Saudi plot to gain control. No big surprise there.
Egyptian news are on about the Muslim Brotherhood which is declared a terrorist organisation in Egypt.
Jerusalem Post are on about Hamas.
Saudi news are on about ISIS and Al Qaeda as well as Qatar's Iranian ties. As surprising as Iran's hints of Saudi plots.
They all point to "homely" groups if pointing at all.

Another issue that is more concerning is, if this escalates, it will affect negatively the threat level across not only the region but across Europe and the US as well.

Escalation is absolutely not something anyone need.
