“A flagrant violation of all international laws and norms!”

This is how Qatar labeled the Israeli attack on Hamas leadership in their Capital of Doha.

I was deployed to Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar as the Commander of Medical Operations in 2006. The United States has had formal relations with Qatar dating back to 1972 (the year I entered high school).

Qatar played a critical role in brokering peace in the Middle East. As one regional expert expressed, “This clearly puts an end to Qatar playing any kind of mediation role. Other countries where Hamas leaders live and work are probably on high alert.”

The United States cannot allow Israel to continue these escalations and their ignoring international law. Trump has gotten us into this mess just as he made a mess of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Did tRUMP have fore knowledge that this was being planned or was he played as a fool by Bibi just as Putin played him as a fool?

Once again, tRUMP has made the United States the laughing stock of the world and betrayed our allies while emboldening our adversaries.

How much longer can this fool be allowed to hold office?

I think your penultimate paragraph bears repeating

Once again, tRUMP has made the United States the laughing stock of the world and betrayed our allies while emboldening our adversaries. (Emphasis added.)

@SomeMichGuy They truly are brainwashed.

I believe this represents a psychological form of Stockholm syndrome. He has become so important to these people with so little self respect and critical thinking skills that they’ve become enthralled to him.

Stockholm syndrome has never been included in the DSM and a fair number of psychiatrists and clinical psychologists doubt it’s existence—but tRUMP has made me believe!

@KunsanVeteran Agreed.

Most of my life I've viewed Israel as the victim. And they were. I was horrified by the October attack on Israeli civilians and agreed that a severe response was warranted. But they have gone too far. This attack must be condemned and Bibi has to go.

@MoveAlong Agreed! There have been atrocities on both sides. There’s a very, very long history…

But I believe in The Good Samaritan. If tRUMP could actually read, and if he had actually read the Bible as he’s quick to claim but can’t seem to make it very convincing… maybe, just maybe he’d remember that story.

Israel is committing genocide. It’s a fact. Listen to the international aid workers, listen to Doctors Without Borders, listen to the imbedded reporters…listen even to the large percentage of Israelis who confirm this.

This attack on Qatari soil is a gross violation of international law. Netanyahu must be soundly rebuked and be held accountable!

And so must tRUMP if it is revealed he knew of this in advance or if he gives aid and/or comfort to Netanyahu.
