Gaza, Qatar, Yemen, Lebanon, Syria, Tunisia. Go back just a few months and we could add Iran to the list.
Is the goal here some type of world war? I get that these are some of the weaker ME countries, but they have allies as well.
Israel has no fear of the current administration and is acting with their full support. They will bomb whomever and whenever they want. They will say “Hamas” and not even worry about it. They have been waiting a very long time for this.

The brazen attempt to kill the political leaders of Hamas in Doha could upend the foundations of an American-led order in the Middle East
Qatar hosts the largest American military base in the Middle East, has bought billions of dollars worth of defense systems from the United States and recently gifted a luxury Boeing jet to President Trump.
Yet on Tuesday, none of that stopped Israel, a key U.S. ally, from launching a brazen military attack on Qatari soil. It was an attempt to assassinate senior Hamas officials who had gathered to discuss a cease-fire proposal to pause the war in Gaza — a deal that was backed by Mr. Trump.
“Qatar being unable to protect its own citizens with literally the U.S. Central Command on its territory has prompted locals to question the value of the American partnership,” said Kristin Diwan, a senior resident scholar at the Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington, a research group. “It’s a real problem for Gulf leaders. And it should worry the United States as well.”

Bet they kick the US out and bring in the Chinese. Word is CIA and US military supplied location and target information for Israel. Israel has that much control.
Or…
The US and presumably some other Arab allies are quietly working with Israel to deal with Hamas once and for all.

Why didn't the US military shoot the missiles down. What is the point of having a US military base in your country if they allow bombing of your country. There's no protection at all.
