Two questions about Israel bombing Qatar: 1- How did the Israeli jets get there? which countries' airspaces did they use? Did Israel use stealth jets? 2- Who provided the tanker aircrafts to refuel Israeli jets on their long journey to Doha?

Two questions about Israel bombing Qatar:

It's impossible that Qatar, KSA or UAE had any foreknowledge of this attack & allowed it to happen. GCC countries are hubs of finance, diplomacy & mediation, the slightest attack on any of them shatters their whole brand, destabilises them & sends investors & visitors fleeing away (think of how the Houthis pressured Saudi Arabia into a ceasefire in Yemen by drone-bombing Aramco oil facilities a couple of times with limited damage).
The whole brand of gulf countries is their safety & they spend so much political & financial capital to ensure this. Until Tuesday afternoon, it was entirely unthinkable that Israel would ever even consider launching an attack inside a gulf country (The last time Israel did this was assassinating a Hamas leader, Mahmoud Mabhouh, in Dubai & it caused a major crisis for the decade that followed).
The attack on Doha on Tuesday marks a turning point towards a new era; it sent the message to gulf governments that no matter how many hundreds of billions you pour into the US, UK, EU... or how many US troops you host & American weapons you buy, none of it would buy your safety; those same Western powers will be the first to throw you under the bus for Israel's sake.
Also, Arab governments have been telling their people that they need to exercise restraint (vis-a-vis Gaza) to avoid giving Israel a pretext to attack them, but now Netanyahu made it clear that no matter what those countries do, Israel will attack them unconstrained & without consequences.
