Qatar Blasts US ‘Double Standards’? Seeks ‘Punishment’ For Israel, Trump Stops Short Of Rebuke | 4K

Last Updated: Crux Videos

Qatar’s prime minister urged the international community on Sunday (Sept. 14) to reject “double standards” and hold Israel accountable, speaking on the eve of an emergency summit called in response to an unprecedented Israeli strike on Hamas members in Doha.The deadly attack — carried out by one US ally on the territory of another — sparked a wave of criticism, including a rebuke from President Donald Trump, who nonetheless dispatched Secretary of State Marco Rubio to Israel in a show of support.The emergency gathering of Arab and Islamic leaders on Sept. 15 will serve as a pointed show of unity among Gulf countries and seek to pile more pressure on Israel, which is already facing mounting calls to bring an end to the war and humanitarian crisis in Gaza.”The time has come for the international community to stop using double standards and to punish Israel for all the crimes it has committed,” Qatari premier Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani told a preparatory meeting on Sunday, adding Israel’s “war of extermination” in Gaza would not succeed. n18oc_world n18oc_crux0:00 INTRODUCTION2:14 “TIME HAS COME…”, QATAR SEEKS ‘PUNISHMENT’ FOR ISRAEL4:24 TURKEY FEARS ISRAEL MAY HIT IT NEXT?6:54 WITH RUBIO BY HIS SIDE, NETANYAHU HAILS ‘DURABILITY’ OF ISRAEL-US TIES
