Hamas claims leadership survived Israeli attack in Doha, but confirms six deaths

1 hour ago






The Palestinian armed group Hamas has said five of its members were killed in an Israeli air strike in Qatar's capital, but claimed that an attempt to assassinate its negotiating team "failed".

Hamas said the negotiating team was meeting to discuss the latest US proposal for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip at a residential compound in Doha when it was badly damaged by a series of explosions.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the strike was "fully justified" because it targeted senior Hamas leaders who organised the 7 October 2023 attack on Israel, which triggered the Gaza war.

Qatar condemned the Israeli attack, calling it "cowardly" and a "flagrant violation of international law".

The Gulf state's interior ministry said one member of its Internal Security Force was killed and others were injured, without mentioning any Hamas casualties.

The White House said US President Donald Trump believed the incident was "unfortunate" but that eliminating Hamas was "a worthy goal".

Qatar is a key US ally in the region that is the location of a major American air base.

It has hosted the Hamas political bureau since 2012, and has served along with the US and Egypt as a mediator in indirect negotiations between the group and Israel.

Trump expressed his solidarity with Qatar, emir's office says


From CNN’s Mostafa Salem, Mohammed Tawfeeq and Kevin Liptak

US President Donald Trump expressed his solidarity with Qatar following the Israeli attack on Doha during a phone call with Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, according to his office.

Trump “expressed his solidarity with the State of Qatar and his strong condemnation of the attack on its sovereignty, pointing out that diplomatic solutions are sufficient to resolve outstanding issues in the region,” according to a statement from the Amiri Diwan, the official workplace of the emir.

Trump also “stressed that the State of Qatar is a trusted strategic ally of the United States of America, calling on His Highness the Amir to continue Qatar’s mediation efforts to end the war in the Gaza Strip,” the statement said.

Trump affirmed that Qatar’s role “is a key factor in establishing peace in the region,” the statement added.

Remember: Earlier in the day, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said attacking inside Qatar “does not advance Israel or America’s goals.” In Trump’s conversation with the Qataris, the US president “assured them that such a thing will not happen again on their soil,” Leavitt said.

Trump says Israel's strike in Qatar was "not a decision made by me"


From CNN's Kevin Liptak
President Donald Trump sought to further distance himself from Israel’s attack in Qatar, posting an addendum to an earlier statement from the White House that specified the decision was made by Israel’s leader and that the US learned of it too late to intervene.

“This was a decision made by Prime Minister Netanyahu, it was not a decision made by me,” Trump wrote on Truth Social today, inserting the line into a statement read earlier from the White House briefing room by his press secretary Karoline Leavitt.

Trump added that by the time his administration learned of the attack and told the Qataris, there was little he could do to stop it.

“I immediately directed Special Envoy Steve Witkoff to inform the Qataris of the impending attack, which he did, however, unfortunately, too late to stop the attack,” Trump wrote.

The president also said he directed Secretary of State Marco Rubio to finalize a defense cooperation agreement with Qatar, though the two countries have an existing pact that Trump amended when he visited Qatar in May.

Wong condemns Israel's strike in Qatar


We've just received our first Australian reaction to Israel's strike overnight on Hamas leaders in Qatar.

Foreign Minister Penny Wong this morning added Australia to the list of countries that have condemned the strike, saying it "flies in the face" of any progress towards a ceasefire and the return of hostages.

"It's a strike that violates Qatar's sovereignty. It undermines, or potentially damages, the possibility of a ceasefire and the release of hostages, and obviously it risks escalation," she says.

"Let's remember what Qatar has been doing. It has been working with the United States to try and deliver a ceasefire and return of hostages. They have been tireless in those negotiations. That's the context in which this strike has occurred.

"I think it is the wrong thing to do. It flies in the face of what we all want, which is a ceasefire and the return of the hostages."

Yasser Arafat was the Palestinians leading negotiator for peace in his later years. He died in his mid seventies following a bout of influenza. The Israelis allowed him to travel to seek medical attention.

Arafat's peace negotiations failed because the people of Gaza voted for war. Fatah's popularity went from almost universal to minority status because they pursued peace under Arafat. You do not need a sinister conspiracy to explain the never ending war. It is simply what the local Muslims want.

Likewise you do not need a sinister conspiracy theory to explain why Israel repeatedly returns land after each of the many military victories they have had. They return it because they do not want it.

To see it any other day requires a hatred of Jews strong enough to blind you to the bleeding obvious.

And they have never denied it: the establishment of the Israeli state over the ancient lands of Judea, Galilee and Samaria.

As such, Zionists deny they are stealing the land... they'd argue they're reclaiming it.

And Israel's borders, say, according to the UN, are?

The fact is, the borders of the place that nearly everyone supports as having a right to exist are almost certainly not the same as those claimed by Zionists or the Zionist-aligned.

What does it mean for a state to have a right to exist?

Is it inalienable? If not, who bestows that right? By what authority?

From there, the state must be geolocated within defined borders... Do those borders have a right to exist? Who is the ultimate authority such that a state and its borders have a right to exist?

Does, say, the Basque state have a right to exist?

Sure. To deny them that right would just encourage Hamas to use civilians as human shields.

Well congratulations for giving a straight answer. I think you are the first.

Now, on the issue of self defence, you would have a point if Israel was only imagining that Hamas was getting on top of residential buildings and lobbing rockets over the border. They are not imagining it. Hamas and their predecessors have been waging a war against Israel for generations, and they have always done so while hiding behind their mothers skirts, then crying foul whenever their mothers turn into red mist.

They do not wage this war for anything that passes for justice among the sane, they wage it because it is a religious imperative. The existence of Israel offends their religious beliefs, and their religious belief is that they are required to impose Islam on everyone by whatever means are available, just like Muhammad did.

Qatar and Israel have F15s. Israeli F15s are probably better Israel does their own avionics and weapon systems think of Israel as the R&D dept for US military industry.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_F-15EX_Eagle_II

Are you saying F15s are no match for F35s?

The big problem with Gulf Arab states is lack of work ethic which means their pilots are hopeless.
The Saudis and UAE couldn't do much with Houthis Israel flies over and bombs them at will.

Qatar has a huge US airbase they probably rely on the US to protect them.

I would say the Gulf Arabs would be happy Israel is taking care of Hamas terrorists for them.
There would be outrage from butthurt muslims if the Gulf Arabs took out Hamas.
They can blame Israel.  ;)

Hamas leaders are a legitimate target they did kill Haniyeh in Iran with a bomb under his bed in IRGC building.

If a terrorist supporter flies a Palestinian flag in Saudi Arabia they are arrested the Saudis don't tolerate that.

Do you think Israel have the right to bomb innocent citizens of a different country ?


Sure. To deny them that right would just encourage Hamas to use civilians as human shields.

You cannot attack a neighbouring country from the top of a residential building then complain that that country does not walk on eggshells in their efforts to try to stop you.


"human shields" gets wheeled out once again for the 10,000th time whilst hamas sitting in tunnels 50 meters below the surface :D LOL

But I asked you for whose benefit ? Is it exclusively for zionists only or is it for everyone, including the people who have been living there for 100's of years before the illegal settler colony started colonizing the land and displacing the locals ?

If you recognise its right to exist, then it does not matter who you think benefits from that right. You can insert any answer you want. It is a nonsensical question. You are speaking gibberish.

And kill the negotiators which is what they are known to do in order to scuttle negotiations because the zionists just want to steal the land for themselves


Yasser Arafat was the Palestinians leading negotiator for peace in his later years. He died in his mid seventies following a bout of influenza. The Israelis allowed him to travel to seek medical attention.

Arafat's peace negotiations failed because the people of Gaza voted for war. Fatah's popularity went from almost universal to minority status because they pursued peace under Arafat. You do not need a sinister conspiracy to explain the never ending war. It is simply what the local Muslims want.


You remain uneducable.

The Arab world was outraged by the UN's confiscation of much of Palestine in 1947.

The Oslo accords were never going to progress to peace after Ramin's murder.

And Israel's ideologues  were never going to countenance E. Jerusalem  as the capital of a Palestinian state, a stance which gave rise to Hamas.

The Muslims are ideologically committed to destroying Israel. But not vice versa. In fact, Israel has created a beacon of freedom and democracy in one of the most backwards and hostile places on earth. In doing so, they have granted local Arab Muslims, roughly 20% of their population, more rights and freedoms than in any other middle eastern or north african country. They would happily live side by side with free, democratic, prosperous Muslim-majority nations. But when those Muslims were given a vote, they voted for war.

That's why even Muslim leaders are now blaming Hamas for the ongoing conflict, not Israel.

No I just don't support Israel's right to indiscriminately blow up anyone they don't like.


What do you think is the right outcome for Palestinians who attacked and killed Israeli's and have innocent hostages. What do you want to see happen to them and how would you achieve that?.


Never claimed to have all the answers but I don't believe that killing approaching 100,000 innocent Palestinians or bombing innocent citizens of Qatar is any part of the answer.

All I see that Net N Yahoo has achieved is a guarantee of another 5 generations of conflict - killing and death as far as the eye can see.

With Trump's help (along with his BFF, Putin), that's very likely.

Since Trump - "the candidate for peace" - entered the White House, the world has got much, much closer to WWIII.

It appears that Trump actually wants it to happen.

I suspect his sons (and the repugnant daughter) have a lot of money invested in the companies that will profit the most from war.

Yet the powerful "chosen people/promised land " ideologues - who even murdered their own peacemaking PM Rabin during the Oslo  peace process, will NEVER accept UN res 181; they will always ensure a peace agreement is never achieved.

Yes, moderate Muslims (and states) - unlike Hamas,  have finally accepted they can't remove Israel from the ME.

But now fundamenalist  Jews have captured the Isreali government, thereby ruling out a Palestinian state.   

Trump's bromance with the Saudis and other Muslims states is in peril.

In exclusive CNN interview, Qatari prime minister says Netanyahu
‘killed any hope’ for Israeli hostages


9 hr ago



Qatar’s prime minister excoriated Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in an exclusive interview with CNN on Wednesday, calling Israel’s attempted assassination of Hamas leaders in Doha “barbaric.”

“We were thinking that we are dealing with civilized people,” Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al-Thani told CNN’s Becky Anderson. “That’s the way we are dealing with others. And the action that (Netanyahu) took – I cannot describe it, but it’s a barbaric action.”

Al-Thani added that he believes Israel’s strike on Doha on Tuesday “killed any hope” for the hostages remaining in Gaza.

“I was meeting one of the hostage’s families the morning of the attack,” Al-Thani said. “They are counting on this (ceasefire) mediation, they have no other hope for that.”

“I think that what Netanyahu has done yesterday, he just killed any hope for those hostages,” the prime minister said.

The greater issue here is about the supposed security guarantee that US give to its allies.   It seemed that if its Israel bombing you, then there is no security guarantee.

Nobody said anything when Obama sent military into Pakistan to kill Bin Laden.

Leftists are only upset when Jews kill Islamic terrorists.

Moderate muslims say Hamas are Islamic terrorists leftists ignore them and side with Islamic terrorists.

RAF use Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar they refuel UK and Nato planes.

Refuelling after takeoff gives them more range afterburners used in takeoff guzzle the fuel.

Did anyone see funeral in Qatar with 5 coffins draped in Palestine flags after IDF bombed Hamas leaders?

NOT vice versa?

Bombing of civilians in Gaza

Killing of West Bank arabs and theft of their land?

How much of Israel is Arab land stolen from the inhabitants who were driven into the Gaza strip or elsewhere?

Even “Exodus” by Leon Uris, a propaganda tract for Israel, states Palestinians were driven or scared from their homes? Israel is a pirate state.

Zionism = fascism

I am part Jewish but I REALLY hate fascism and that is what I see in action in Gaza AND the West Bank!

I have nothing but admiration for a people kicked out of their land by the Romans who kept their identity and faith for 2000 years. I like stiff-necked bastards, admire them!
