For years, Arab regimes have acted as subordinates to the United States, enabling and even facilitating actions that have brought destruction to the region. The reality is clear: while these Arab states bend before Washington, the U.S. itself bends before Israel — making Israel the true power they ultimately serve. It would not be far-fetched to believe that Qatar, too, had a role in the strike against Hamas leadership. Reports indicate that the UK Air Force refueled Israeli jets during the operation, and that very aircraft later landed in Qatar. Are these capabilities merely for display, or do they reveal an underlying incompetence — or worse, cowardice?
