According to JNS, Qatar is engaged in a 'double game,' presenting itself as a moderate mediator while allegedly providing ideological and financial support to Islamic extremist groups. The report highlights that Qatar hosts Hamas leadership and utilizes Al Jazeera to disseminate anti-Israel propaganda. Furthermore, the article cites research from the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy (ISGAP) alleging that Qatar has funneled billions of dollars into American universities, such as Cornell and Texas A&M, to exert soft-power influence. Critics quoted in the piece argue that the U.S. State Department often overlooks these activities due to the strategic importance of the Al Udeid Air Base, leading to a policy of appeasement that empowers bad actors.
