The Emirate of Qatar accused Israel of war crimes on Tuesday, claiming that it has deliberately killed innocent civilians for two months — after Qatar’s prime minister met with wealthy figures in the American Jewish community in an attempt to improve relations.
Qatar currently hosts the terrorist leaders of Hamas, many of whom have become billionaires, in luxurious exile in Doha, Qatar, as they send others to die on their behalf, safe from the fighting and the suffering of the Palestinians they claim to represent.
Though Qatar has been acting as a mediator in discussions between Israel and the terrorist group in the effort to free hostages that Hamas abducted during its massive October 7 terror attack, it has become more stridently anti-Israel than ever before.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pulled his country’s negotiators from Qatar, calling off hostage negotiation talks saying they had reached an “impasse” with Hamas.
Negotiations previously resulted in a weeklong cease-fire that freed over 100 Hamas-held hostages and 240 Palestinian prisoners. Fighting resumed in the conflict on Friday, but the Biden administration, Arab allies and some factions of the Israeli government pushed for a longer pause to continue hostage releases.
“Hamas did not fulfil its part of the agreement, which included the release of all children and women according to a list that was forwarded to Hamas and approved by it,” the Israeli prime minster’s office said in a statement.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken was in Israel on Thursday and Friday, his third trip to the region since the start of the conflict in October.
He blamed Hamas for the cease-fire deal falling through, but also reiterated the need for the Israeli military to better consider Gaza civilians.
