Israel\u2019s actions brought US dominance in the Middle East to an end \u2013 Here\u2019s what comes next<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/blockquote>\nIn an interview with RT aired on Thursday, Cohen opined that the two leaders are engaged in a game of smoke and mirrors to deceive the global community. “I think a lot of that is basically misdirection to make it appear as if there is distance between the Trump administration and the Israeli government,”<\/em> he said.<\/p>\nThe journalist added that despite the recent strike on Qatar, the latter would not respond and continue to serve as a transit point for sending US arms to Israel.<\/p>\n
“I think it humiliates the Qataris… The American weapons are being delivered to Israel via Qatar. That shows that Qatar is not a sovereign nation. It’s not a sovereign state. It’s a glorified US military base,”<\/em> he said, adding that Doha does not mind the arrangement because “the Qatari royal family benefits greatly”<\/em> from it.<\/p>\nHe further alleged that the Israeli leadership, dominated by far-right figures, is pursuing ethnic cleansing in Gaza. According to Cohen, “there is a minority… in particular, the religious Zionist movement… which wants to convert Israel into a full-on fascist theocracy.”<\/em><\/p>\nOn Tuesday, a United Nations Commission of Inquiry concluded that Israel “has committed genocide”<\/em> in Gaza and urged the global community to punish those responsible. Israel rejected the findings as false and politically motivated. In August, Trump also disagreed that Israel was carrying out a genocide in the enclave.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Washington is merely pretending it is not happy about the Jewish state\u2019s attack in the key Gulf nation, Dan Cohen has told RT The US and Israel are putting on a show to suggest Washington had nothing to do with the Jewish state’s strike in Qatar targeting senior Hamas officials,…<\/p>\n
