A couple of thoughts for you:
Qatar: A client of mine has responsibility for Qatar but is based in
Bahrain. To visit Qatar a flight must be taken either to Oman or Kuwait and
then on to Qatar and in reverse on the return trip. The current cost in the
light of this is about 10 times more!
Israel: There is absolutely no doubt that the GCC in general is now
receptive to some approaches from Israeli companies. I am aware of one such
company that I am led to believe is right now about to obtain business in
the UAE; a GCC contact who has been to Israel on at least four occasions in
the near past with the blessing of his masters; and am told by a former
British army officer doing business in the region that being an Israeli
company seems not to be a hindrance to the doing of business within the
GCC.
