A stylized image of a young Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani has become a symbol of Qatari resistance to the blockade |
All over Doha a singular image has become ubiquitous: a stylized black and white portrait of a young Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the emir of Qatar, under which is written, in calligraphic Arabic, ‘Tamim the glorious’.
Half-a-year ago you would have seen no such image; now it is everywhere. On car windscreens, at street corners, in the lobbies of hundreds of corporate headquarters around the Qatari capital (often signed by dozens of employees) and, importantly, on social media.
