Israel struck at Hamas’ negotiating team in Qatar today and the White House doesn’t sound happy about it:
This was a unilateral bombing of a sovereign nationThis did not advance Israel’s goalsUS was notified by Pentagon that Israel was attacking Hamas in Qatar this morningWitkoff was told to inform Qataris of impending attackUS feels badly about the location of the attackNetanyahu told Trump he wants to make peace deal fast
Meanwhile Al Jazeera reports — citing a senior Hamas source — that the leadership delegation survived the assassination attempt. The again, they often seem to say that but then it’s not true.
However if the strike missed then it might put to test that promise not to strike again.
