Qatar Is a Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Haven
(Foundation for Defense of Democracies) Clifford D. May - Qatar's rulers have been funding Hamas for nearly two decades and formally hosting leaders since 2012. Nevertheless, they claim they are honest brokers mediating between warring parties. Israel's leaders decided to treat the Hamas bigwigs in Qatar as the terrorist masters they are rather than the earnest negotiators they pretended to be. Harboring terrorists violates fundamental international law. Based on that law, Israel has the same right to target Hamas leaders wherever they are that the U.S. had when it targeted Osama bin Laden in Pakistan, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi in Syria, Qasem Soleimani in Iraq, Ayman al-Zawahiri in Afghanistan, and other terrorists in other countries. The Qataris are aligned with - and bankroll - the Muslim Brotherhood, of which Hamas is the Gaza branch. At the same time, they've been spending billions of dollars insinuating Islamism into America's educational system, spreading lucre among Washington influentials, and disinforming the "international community," not least via Al Jazeera, their international propaganda conglomerate.
