Will Qatar regret gifting $400m ‘palace in the sky’ jet to Trump after Israel’s attack in Doha?
President Donald Trump has said he is “not thrilled” about Israel’s attack on Hamas leaders in Doha, Qatar, on Tuesday, which promises to give him a fresh diplomatic headache in the Middle East.Hamas has said that five of its lower-ranking members and a Qatari security official were killed in the surprise strike but that its senior leadership had escaped injury.
The message taken from this strike does not end at Qatar’s borders. Nations across the Gulf, who for decades have actively pivoted towards the US, politically and financially, may now be questioning the assumed benefits of that choice.
It may have big implications, but the principle we should support is that Israel has the right to strike terrorists who are trying to kill Israelis and destroy the State of Israel,” Abrams said. WASHINGTON – Elliott Abrams,
While not condemning the Israeli action, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt shared a statement she said reflected Trump's views -- one using strong language that showed some rare daylight between the president and Israel, describing the strike as an "unfortunate incident" that doesn't benefit the U.S. or Israel.
