Bassem Eid IPT, June 10, 2025 “… unlike Iran, with its regular “Death to America” chants, Qatar has never publicly positioned itself in opposition to the American-led international order.” How did Hamas do it on October 7? This time, I don’t mean to ask how they had so little humanity as to butcher over 1,200 […]
John Aziz Quillette, May 20, 2025 “Qatari organisations have made substantial investments in American universities including Georgetown, Northwestern, Texas A&M, and Cornell, all of which have established satellite campuses in Qatar.” Donald Trump’s recent visit to the Middle East has thrown a spotlight onto Qatar, an oil-rich emirate that punches above its weight in […]

Yonah Jeremy Bob Jerusalem Post, June 4, 2025 “What All of these creative arrangements have in common is that they are focused on symbolic victories for both Trump and Khamenei without seriously getting into the essence of what most endangers Israel about Iran’s nuclear program.” On April 12, the US and Iran held their […]
Amine Ayoub Jerusalem Post, June 4, 2025 President Trump’s deadline for a deal to dismantle Iran’s nuclear program is fast approaching.
