Kushner Claims Failed Doha Hit Led to Israel's Hamas Deal
Former Trump administration official Jared Kushner stated that a failed assassination attempt in Doha last year led to Israel's diplomatic isolation and ultimately forced its hand in agreeing to a ceasefire and hostage release deal with Hamas. Speaking via video conference from his current residence in Miami, Kushner, who served as a Middle East envoy, revealed that the operational failure of the Doha operation, which he did not specify, resulted in significant diplomatic repercussions.
According to Kushner, the United States leveraged this perceived diplomatic setback for Israel to compel the Israeli political leadership to accept the terms of the agreement. This deal, which concluded the conflict and secured the release of hostages, was approved at the time. Kushner's remarks suggest a strategic manipulation by Washington, using the consequences of the Doha incident to influence Israeli policy regarding the Hamas conflict.
