After the Doha Attack, a Diplomatic Tempest in a Teapot
Marco Rubio shows solidarity with Israel while Arab leaders bluster.
On Sunday, Marco Rubio arrived in Israel, visited the Western Wall, met with Benjamin Netanyahu, and participated in a joint press conference with the prime minister. Yesterday, he traveled on to Qatar, presumably to mend fences after the Israeli strike on Hamas offices in the country. The strike, according to most reports, killed five officials of the terrorist group, but none of the senior leaders who were the intended target.
