It's not appropriate to discuss this in the ongoing conflict thread, but I am growing exceedingly concerned about attending these events. Particularly the one in Qatar, as I have come to discover that Qatar houses the headquarters of Hamas and also is actively brokering negotiations for hostages.
Does anyone have any experience traveling to Qatar? Should I be concerned about the general atmosphere being dangerous in addition to the obvious potential danger of proximity to a warzone? Should I look to skip Qatar but attend Dubai?
Ok with my anxiety out of the way, I also want to know if anyone knows of fun things to do in Qatar? I have many things in mind for Dubai but not Qatar.
Please share your experiences in the persian gulf with me!

I'd definitely avoid taking the tour of the Hamas headquarters in Qatar.
