Israel Bombs Hamas in Qatar; US Calls Qatar 'BFF'
In a twist straight out of geopolitical slapstick, Israel launched airstrikes against top Hamas leaders reportedly holed up in Qatar amidst Gaza ceasefire talks—because what’s diplomacy without drone lighting? Meanwhile, Trump’s ex-press secretary solemnly declared these attacks 'do not advance US or Israeli goals' while soberly praising Qatar as 'a strong ally and friend.' Cue the awkward sibling rivalry. All this drama unfolds as 51 Israeli arms makers and Lockheed Martin—masters behind the F-35 jets bombing Gaza—showcase their wares at London’s DSEI arms bazaar starting September 9, 2025. It’s a bizarre peaceful chaos cocktail with bombs and business shaking hands at the Docklands.
