*US investigative journalist Bob Woodward has published a new book claiming that after 7 October, various Arab rulers asked the US to destroy Hamas citing its historical ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.*
In his new book, War, Woodward claims to provide details of the meetings of US Secretary of State Antony Blinken held with several Arab rulers shortly after 7 October, as Israel’s war against Hamas and genocide of Palestinians in Gaza was getting underway.
In the book, Woodward claims that when Blinken met with Jordanian King Abdullah II in Amman on 13 October 2023, the king told him, “We told Israel not to do this, we told them not to trust Hamas, Hamas is the Muslim Brotherhood, Israel must defeat Hamas. We will not say this publicly, but we support the defeat of Hamas.”
Woodward claims that when Blinken visited the UAE on 14 October 2023 and met with Mohammed bin Zayed, the emir told him, “Hamas must be eliminated. We have repeatedly warned Israel that Hamas is the Muslim Brotherhood. We can give Israel time to eliminate Hamas, but first, it must help us calm our citizens from the images of violence and destruction in Gaza by bringing in aid, establishing safe zones, and controlling the violence of the settlers in the West Bank. Let it help us with our citizens, and we will give it the space to eliminate Hamas.”
The book says that when Blinken visited Saudi Arabia on 14 October 2023, Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al-Saud told him, “Israel should not have trusted Hamas, and Netanyahu warned us against that repeatedly, because Hamas is the Muslim Brotherhood.”
