Qatar could cut off Israel's energy supplies in response

Military experts comment on today's Israeli Air Force strike on the Qatari capital. According to preliminary data, as Voyennoye Obozreniye has already reported, about a dozen explosions thundered in Doha, resulting in the liquidation of another Hamas leader. At least, Israeli media, as well as the Qatari media holding Al Jazeera, are writing about the liquidation of Khalil al-Hayya.

Jerusalem Post writes:

Hamas has received a new proposal from the Qataris, which we [Israel] received from Witkoff last week in Paris. Yesterday there was a meeting with the Hamas leadership, and they decided to meet again today to discuss the proposal.

And then the publication quotes the Qatari side, which says that Israel is once again disrupting the planned negotiations. It is claimed that Hamas was already ready to release all the hostages, but...

However, Israel has not bombed Qatar before.

Accordingly, there are assumptions about how Qatar will respond if its military and political leadership really had no idea that Israel was preparing for an attack? There are versions that Qatar could cut off energy supplies to Israel and attack its oil rigs. But this is still mostly speculation. Will official Doha take such a step? If there was political will, the Qatari authorities would have done this long ago - at the initial stage of the Israeli bombing of Gaza. But if they continued economic contacts with Israel then, they are unlikely to change themselves now. An excuse will be found.

For now, they limit themselves to loud statements like:

This was a cowardly attack by Israel on our country.

[Ross xnumx]

Qatar could cut off Israel's gas supply in response, but it is unlikely to do so.

Who would doubt that ten million Jews keep tens of millions of Arabs in an iron fist...

[Nexcom]

...and therefore this cannot be called genocide of Arabs. If it were the other way around, half the world would be screaming that Jews are being genocided again...

[Amateur]

Ten million Jews keep tens of millions of Arabs in check.

The Jews simply bought 10000 (or maybe even 1000) Arabs, and they now hold tens of millions of their compatriots... The Arabs, however...

[IGU]

It will be if the Qatar Air Force also watches the strike and does nothing. Everything was arranged in advance and yes there was a preliminary agreement between the US and their province Qatar.

[Obstacle from the right]

- Now it will be...

A mad dog bites even its owner's milk cow...

[Murmur 55]

Now Qatar has also been told who will decide who and where to kill. Let's see what comes of this, because many can make loud statements, but none of the neighbors can lay siege to Jerusalem.

Let's see what comes out of this, because many can make loud statements, but no one can lay siege to Jerusalem.

These people can do it when they want and not even look back or make excuses! Where is Israel and where is Qatar!

Operation against Hamas leadership was entirely Israeli initiative, says office – Netanyahu

Earlier, Israeli media reported that the attack on members of the Hamas politburo in Doha was approved by Trump.

Hamas leadership members have survived an Israeli attack in Doha, Reuters reports, citing sources.

[Kornodo]

Qatar does not supply Israel with any energy resources, and therefore it cannot cut off anything....

[Kornodo]

Those who put a minus under the comment apparently have different information...:)

[abc_alex]

Qatar May Stop LNG Supplies to Europe under the condition of sanctions against Israel. And the Europeans would have hurt Israel. The Americans, of course, would have compensated something in terms of exports to Israel, but I don't think even the US can force Europe to buy anything from Israel. The US could have compensated for LNG supplies to Europe, but after the price of gas at the Henry Hub starts to creep up, they won't be any happier either. But Qatar is Qatar... And the EU is the EU.
And in the long game, Qatar could announce its refusal to increase production and supply of LNG to Europe. And then the gas market there could go to hell...

[Evgen Zharov]

Long-eared Donya probably already called Doha and ordered them not to make a fuss and not to respond to the antics of his girlfriend Benya Well, the Qataris will be indignant, so as not to ruin the portrait of the face, and then everything will calm down.

[Alexy]

I am in Doha and I learn about what happened from the news.

[Sergey Mitinsky]

It seems that this attack will not go so easily for Israel.

Israel's political leadership has become engrossed in the game of responding to every hostile action with a blow, completely forgetting about diplomacy, and this approach will ultimately play a cruel joke on Israel.

After this, no one would bet a dime that the Abraham Accords will not be broken and Israel will not end up with nothing after so many efforts to establish dialogue with the Arabs.

But on the other hand, the pampered Sunni regimes of the Persian Gulf countries, which have not created anything that would allow them to worthily resist Israel, are hardly capable of responding in any way. It is a shame to have so many opportunities and such money and not to create their own combat-ready armies following the example of Iran, having bred American bases on their territory, which do not care about their interests or, even more so, their feelings of insulted dignity.

Everything will pass and very simply. In the East, only strength is respected. And kindness is considered weakness. And the Jews understood this long ago.

[Sergey Mitinsky]

"Everything passes, and this too shall pass."
(King Solomon) by the way

[gmss]

Absolutely right. I am not a supporter of Israel, but it acts clearly, the Arabs have shown once again what cowardly suckers they are.

[Space battleship Yamato]

It will do nothing. But in fact, the normalization of relations with Arab countries will be stopped for a long time.

[Aerolab]

Why do Jews need to normalize relations with Arab countries? In the East, they respect the strong. The Arabs themselves will crawl on their knees and bow.

[slesarg1965]

They won't crawl, you don't know their mentality. They will bow down during the day, but at night they will cut Jews. This is the East.

[Last-of-the-Mohicans]

There are theories that Qatar could cut off energy supplies to Israel and attack its oil rigs.

He could have blocked it. But if the Qataris dare to do something stronger than "we will conduct a thorough investigation" - they will block Qatar itself.

[guga]

attack its mining rigs. But this is still mostly speculation. Will official Doha take such a step?

With the presence of an American military base on Qatari territory... it's not even funny

[sergey4791]

This was a cowardly attack by Israel on our country.

...that's why we will be even more cowardly not to answer it

[eskela]

Have sanctions already been introduced or is this something else?

[Jacques sekavar]

Qatar could in response cut off Israel's energy supplies - unlike Russia, Qatar is not at war with Israel, but Russia could cut off NATO's supplies of raw materials and energy, but it does not. The whole world worships Mormons.

[Word]

Arabs are innately disorganized, corrupt cowards, and it is only for this innate reason that they are being taken advantage of and killed by the Jews under the leadership of the United States.

Where is Israel and where is Qatar!

In the new conditions, with cellular communications, the Internet, cruise and ballistic missiles, and drones that have joined them, such a distance means nothing.
