What? Huck has it right. Qatar is an emirate. It's just not part of the UAE. In fact, the Qatari Emir just abdicated to his son a couple months ago.

Al Jazeera is hideously slanted towards its agenda, far more than Fox or any other "tilted" news bureau.
As for the NTSB, I'd rather hear what THEY have to say at any time but especially early in an investigation, vs. media "experts" who rely on Microsoft Flight Simulator for their experience. Especially if the information is simply CVR transcripts or data from the recorder.
