Calls for a new NATO-style military alliance in the Middle East are intensifying as Muslim leaders gather in Qatar for an emergency summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation. The proposal comes after an Israeli strike in Doha that killed five Hamas members and a Qatari security officer. Leaders across the region now say the time has come for a unified response to what they see as Israel’s destabilizing role. Pakistan, the world’s only nuclear-armed Muslim state, has also called for a joint task force to monitor Israel. The fact that Egypt and potentially Saudi Arabia could align with Iran marks a historic shift since both nations have historically resisted Tehran’s influence.
