The disptive issue was homosexualy. Very few are prepared to sudnly surrenr their sexual inty and stop beg gay for a week.

However, homosexualy is illegal Qatar and n be punished wh lash and jail, which offends the progrsive agenda of rights groups the Wt. It is unavoidable that a clash of cultur will occur; a llisn of east-vers-wt agast Qatar’s tightly bound sexual and social standards, both straight and gay.
