President Donald Trump has bestowed upon the nation of Qatar a remarkable security guarantee that could include coming to its defense militarily. In an executive order dated earlier this week, Trump declared that the United States will regard any attack on Qatar’s territory, sovereignty or critical infrastructure “as a threat to the peace and security of the United States” itself.

So, the U.S. now has to support Qatar, no matter what they do? If Qatar attacks Israel or Saudi Arabia, we have to be on their side? Are we obligated to invade any country they do?

“ Is America now going to attack Israel the next time Bibi decides to kill terrorists in Qatar?”

No. Pres. Trump is just schmoozing the Qataris to pay for turning Gaza into a livable place instead of a terrorist shithole.

You’re not allowed to post here unless you first show your receipts for contributing, even if you do so anonymously. The self-appointed FR Gestapo wants to see your papers before allowing you express an opinion or post an article.

“... next time Bibi decides to kill terrorists in Qatar?”

I highly doubt that there’s going to be a “next time.” This is a direct message to DJT to Net to stay on leash: no more freelancing in Qatar.
