The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.

Peter Tatchell, a 70-year-old veteran British LGBT activist, stood outside the National Museum of Qatar for just over half an hour holding a placard reading "Qatar arrests, jails, and subjects LGBTs to conversion" with the hashtag #QatarAntiGay. Tatchell, along with many others, is boycotting the 2022 World Cup, which is slated to begin on November 20th in Qatar, citing the poor treatment of migrant workers and the LGBT community as the primary reason. Mr. Tatchell said in a statement that the Qatari police detained him for 49 minutes and interrogated him. The Qatari government later released a statement denying that Peter Tatchell and his colleague were arrested and detained. They claimed he was "cordially and professionally asked to move to the sidewalk." Tatchell staged a similar protest in 2018 when he protested against the poor treatment of LGBT individuals in Russia before the World Cup, where Russian authorities arrested him. Homosexuality for both men and women is illegal in Qatar, and the LGBT community is known to face severe abuse and harassment while held in the country's detention centers.
