Officially a major non-NATO ally of the U.S., Qatar, which opened an office for Hamas in 2012, has come under criticism from Congress for backing the terrorist group. A bipartisan group of 113 U.S. lawmakers sent a letter to President Joe Biden on Oct. 16 asking him to put pressure on countries, including Qatar, that support Hamas.

The recent movement of Hamas leaders may be related to Israel’s promise to wipe out the terrorist group’s leadership wherever it is found. Ronen Bar, head of the Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet), said on Dec. 3 that Israel will eliminate the leaders of Hamas in Qatar and Turkey.

Following Bar’s comments, a Turkish intelligence official told Reuters that there would be “serious consequences” if Israel attempted to pursue senior Hamas officials “outside the Palestinian territories,” whether in Turkey or elsewhere. The warning was delivered to Israel “following the statements of officials,” according to the source.

So non-NATO Qatar can be put under pressure and in-NATO Turkey can't? Why's Erdogan bitchin', just to show himself as independent self-ruler, does he have any skin in this game? While palestinian people are dying en masse in Gaza, the exact persons who should've suffered got to fly a couple of hours before continuing their leasure spree, big sad. With all dirt Israel drags itself through, hunting down top Hamas officials who orchestrated the massacre is the one I can close my eyes to.
