Israel’s bombing of the Qatari capital Doha on Tuesday marked the sixth country the powerful U.S. ally attacked so far this year.
U.S. and Israeli officials told CNN and other outlets on Tuesday that Israel — which the U.S. arms to the tune of billions of dollars each year — gave President Donald Trump’s administration advance warning before carrying out the strike. The attack drew ire from progressive members of Congress, who told The Intercept that the U.S. must stop arming Israel as it accelerates attacks around the globe.
“In the past two years, Israel has bombed nation after nation with no repurcussions—all while conducting a genocide and manufacturing a famine in Gaza using U.S. taxpayer dollars,” said Rep. Summer Lee, D-Penn. “There must be accountability for Israel’s unchecked power and destabilization of the region. The United States must implement an arms embargo immediately.”
Israel has carried out tens of thousands of attacks in Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, Syria, Yemen, and now Qatar since the October 7 Hamas attacks, according to data from the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project. In the last three days, Israel bombed three residential buildings in Gaza City and dropped leaflets ordering residents to evacuate.
Neither side has been negotiating in good faith IMO, both are culpable for prolonging and perpetuating the conflict unnecessarily at the cost innocent lives. They’re both negotiating like Putin. Again that’s my hot-take based on what I’ve seen. I may well be wrong and missing key information or contextual perspective.
Hamas always respected every other cease fire in the past. Israel never respected anything
Are you going to “both sides” this? don’t get more bad faith then murdering the people you are negotiating with.
Your O is worth jackshit, because you’re a war crime supporting dumb ass who knows nothing about the situation but advocates for horrific crimes anyway. “I don’t think they’re negotiating in good faith, so actually it’s good for Isreal to massacre their diplomats!” fucking Nazi pig.
