For war-as-sport fans: it's only 729 miles from Qatar(Bahrain) to Yemen. A 50 min fighter-flightArchived Message

50 minutes to cover 729 miles in a Bahraini fighter jet - 89 minutes in a passenger jet.
(See Bahraini fighter jet-crash headline below)
OK - most non-American bread & circus sport(s) fans are not quite as geographically clueless as they are geopolitically cretinous or comatose - but if attending fans / fanatics get to feeling anti-climactic when the fairly-refereed pitch-battles in Qatar finally wrap up - they might consider getting the adrenaline and the blood flowing again with a quick sightseeing stopover flight to Yemen. It takes less than 90 minutes - or circa 50 mins in a Bahraini fighter jet:
