Qatar’s Rage After Israel’s Doha Strike: Tensions Flare

The Attack That Changed Everything

On September 9, 2025, Israel bombed Hamas leaders in Doha, rocking Qatar’s role as a peace broker. Labeling it “state terrorism,” Qatar’s PM Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani demanded action. An Arab-Islamic summit in Doha, ending September 15, united Saudi Arabia, Iran, and others to condemn Israel and push for UN sanctions.

Qatar’s Bold Response

Qatar, a U.S. ally hosting Hamas’s office, called the strike a betrayal of ceasefire talks. The summit warned of scrapping deals like the Abraham Accords and floated a $150 billion Boeing deal freeze, rattling U.S. ties. On X, users slam Israel for hitting a nation with 10,000 U.S. troops.

Global Fallout

The UN fears a “perilous” escalation, while the UAE banned Israeli firms from a Dubai event. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio urged calm in Israel, but Trump’s vague comments stirred confusion. Bitcoin fell to $104,000, though some see a rebound coming.

What’s Next?

Qatar’s pushing for peace but mulling boycotts. New Israeli strikes in Yemen fuel the fire. Will this spark a wider crisis or force a truce? Doha’s next move could decide.
