The news that Israel conducted an airstrike in the middle of Doha, Qatar on September 9 is frankly quite shocking....

The area west of the Katara station on the Doha Metro's Red Line, which Israel attacked, is not just a residential area but a diplomatic district where embassies from dozens of countries are located, and it is densely populated with international schools attended by foreigners, making it clearly not a military target but a place with strong diplomatic significance, which is why everyone is saying it doesn't make sense to hit there.

According to Al Jazeera's report, it was a meeting of the Hamas ceasefire negotiation delegation discussing the ceasefire proposal put forth by President Donald Trump, and Al Arabiya reported that a senior Hamas official, Khalil al-Hayya, may have been killed.

The problem is that it has been reported that Hamas leader Khaled Mashal was also present at that meeting, raising the controversy over whether this was just a simple strike or an intention to wipe out the entire leadership.

Qatar has a close relationship with Hamas, but it is fundamentally a pro-American constitutional monarchy, hosting a U.S. military airbase.

But Israel conducted an airstrike right in that area? This is bound to be perplexing from the U.S. perspective.

In fact, President Trump expressed his displeasure, stating, "The U.S. was not involved in this operation at all, and Israel should not drag us into it," and there are even reports of explosions occurring right next to the U.S. military base, leading to analyses that there could be subtle cracks in U.S.-Israel relations.

Moreover, Qatar was a country mediating ceasefire agreements in this war, and from Israel's perspective, it was a diplomatic channel that was subtly providing assistance, but now it has effectively kicked that away.

As a result, the term "betrayal" is being publicly used in the Arab world, and countries like Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, which have not had a bad relationship with Israel, are also siding with Qatar to criticize it.

European countries like France and the UK have also criticized Israel directly this time, indicating how far this action has crossed the line.

Personally, watching the airstrike in Doha, I think Israel is not just targeting the Hamas leadership but seems to want to escalate the situation on a global scale.

Striking in the middle of a diplomatic area, where dozens of embassies and international schools are located, is clearly not just a military operation but an action that provokes the international community directly.

By provoking displeasure from the U.S. and drawing unified criticism from Arab and European countries, it seems that Israel is recklessly willing to draw a large-scale war scenario akin to World War III.

Until now, Israel's operations in Gaza or airstrikes against Palestinians have been controversial, but friendly nations have somewhat tolerated them.

However, this time, even friendly nations are drawing the line, saying, "This is not acceptable," which means Israel has effectively removed its diplomatic shield.

Ultimately, this airstrike in Doha, which was aimed at the Hamas leadership as a military objective, has instead highlighted Israel's reckless actions and foolishness in the international community, and it is generally viewed that this will impose a significant burden on Israel's diplomacy going forward.
