Dump and his friends seem to be upset because they weren't told about it in time, not that they bombed a major US ally.
What snowflakes.

The United States announced on Wednesday that it is preparing a partial evacuation of its embassy in Iraq and has authorised the voluntary departure of dependents of American personnel from locations across the Middle East, including Bahrain, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates, as regional security concerns rise.
On Wednesday evening, US President Donald Trump explained that the decision to relocate staff was made because the region could be a dangerous place.

(9,672 posts)I have criticisms of both of them and they are both major non-NATO allies.
One host the leaders of hamas and I dont think I need to explain why they are shit.
The other lets its people kill Palestinians in the West Bank, sometimes on video where the Palestinian was not even close to the killer, the attacker was arrested and let go a day or two later. Not to mention burning houses and farms, cars, attacking Palestinians and driving them off their land.
So again, which terrorist supporting major non-Nato ally country of the US involved in this do you want me to talk about?

(37 posts)The one you made no attempt to criticize. You were explicitly critical about Israel and Dump, but not Qatar.

The only one I criticized was the US.
Just to be clear here is my entire post.

The title "So Israel just decided to bomb a major non-NATO US ally and our Government is ok with it? clearly is about why our, the US Government" is ok with it.
The body of my post is "Dump and his friends seem to be upset because they weren't told about it in time, not that they bombed a major US ally. What snowflakes." is only about the US.
If you want to argue that the title is criticizing Israel I did nothing but state the facts about Israels actions and then asked if the US is ok with it.

It was critical of Israel for "just " deciding to bomb Qatar (it wasn't "just", which is my point), and it was critical of Dump and his friends for being upset they weren't told about it and not for the fact Israel bombing a major US ally (in fact, Israel bombed the terrorists Qatar is harboring).
It was not critical of Qatar for harboring the terrorists that were bombed. In fact, the reason for Qatar being bombed was not mentioned at all.

(9,672 posts)As my post was about Israel bombing a major non-Nato ally without even conferring with the US on it thus showing how Israel is acting like a rouge state on the diplomatic front it was the fact that they did it without normal diplomatic measures and not the reason they did the bombing.
One can also talk about the reason being right or wrong, the leaders of hamas in Qatar were as I have said shit terrorists but they were also the people who were mainly involved in the peace talks going on. Killing them seems to say that Israel cares little about the peace talks as they have killed those involved in said peace talks. The US and Israel as well as a lot of other countries used the arrangement Qatar had with the leaders of hamas in Qatar to produce peace talks in the past that have ended previous wars, released Israeli hostages and other things most everyone think are positive results. Killing them or attacking them makes that a lot harder to get those results in the future.
Sure, Israel killed some shit hamas terrorists but they have made the entire peace process and the process of actually getting the Isralei hostages out of Gaza far less possible. It's another case of Israel being stupid in their war on hamas.
