They didn't just bomb Qatar because their leader said mean things about Israel.
When a nation sponsors attacks on your homeland, then yes, you can bomb them.
Isn't that what the US did to Afghanistan in 2001?
Israel is basically in the mode of "We're not gonna take this shit anymore", and that's the correct approach. If they just absorb the 10/7 attacks like a bitch, and return to the status quo, this will keep on happening. That's why Iran and Qatar felt so free to sponsor Hamas and Hezbollah, as part of a quiet proxy war to destroy Israel. They were used to decades of Israel just taking it on the chin, at least when it came to proxies.
When Israel attacks a country which hasn't knowingly contributed to attacking them, let me know.
