Qatar and the Fifth Column Grassroots of the West

Qatar and the Fifth Column Grassroots of the West

Before we come to the threat that my native Qatar poses to the West, I think it is helpful to understand how Western culture opened the door to its enemies.

Lionel Shriver, the author of We Need to Talk About Kevin, has written A Better Life, the controversial novel of the year, about how Westerners fail to defend a privilege that they feel they haven’t earned, thus becoming all giving of their cultural inheritance to foreign cultures, which are all taking. The New York Times and others are enraged and doing their best to dismiss A Better Life as a mean, racist, and bigoted tirade about immigration. It is not.

Can European democracy be bought? Ask the rich men of Qatar

Can European democracy be bought? Ask the rich men of Qatar

Shame, not guilt, is the currency of scandal. In 2022, on anti-corruption day no less, Belgian police uncovered €1.5m of cash crammed into the suitcases of various senior EU officials. The money was thought to be payment for various political favours. The case is still sub-judice, but the accusation is that, for a rather venal sum, European Parliament Vice President Eva Kaili and Pier Antonio Panzeri may have closed down a debate about Qatar’s Human Rights record.

Qatar is not our friend

The key to the Qatari approach lies in embracing the Muslim Brotherhood’s strategy of infiltrating Western institutions, including through the electoral process. But this does not translate into adapting to Western values, notes scholar Mark Menaldo. Instead, it advances an ideology developed by the Muslim Brotherhood’s intellectual founder, Sayyid Qutb, that ‘cannot accommodate democratic principles such as legal pluralism’ outside Islamic practice.

Why Are We Following Qatar’s Foreign Policy on Iran?

From Syria to Gaza to Iran, Qatar is hijacking the Trump administration.

Syria’s Al Qaeda regime is massacring Kurds to free imprisoned ISIS terrorists, state sponsors of Hamas in Turkey and Qatar are being named to boards running Gaza, and thousands of democracy protesters are being massacred in Iran while Al Jazeera defends the regime.

This isn’t American foreign policy, but it is Qatar’s foreign policy.

Carney visiting Qatar to drum up investment despite ‘brutal’ human rights record

OTTAWA – Prime Minister Mark Carney is in Qatar to drum up investment deals with a country known for both its brutal dictatorship and its growing diplomatic and economic influence.

“Today, the epicentre of diplomatic, economic, financial and commercial power in the Middle East is in the Gulf,” said University of Ottawa professor Thomas Juneau, an expert on the Persian Gulf.

“For Canada to neglect the region, as it did for the past 10 years, is a way to erase ourselves from the equation in the Middle East.”

Qatar’s Campus Conquest: Importing Muslim Brotherhood Policies in a War for the Future of the West

Qatar continues to conduct one of the most extensive foreign influence operations in modern history. Through hundreds of billions of dollars — estimated at up to a trillion dollars — funneled into Western universities, research centers, media platforms and political advocacy networks, Qatar has become the leading global patron of the Muslim Brotherhood in pushing an ideological agenda aimed at reshaping democratic societies from within.

Warnings to President Trump on the Future of Gaza

The Trump administration is being sent early warnings of the priorities of its possible “partner,” Qatar, for the future of the Gaza Strip.

“His Excellency” Mohammed al-Rumaihi, Qatar’s former ambassador to the United States, and former Minister of Municipality and Environment, noted on July 5 that he is concerned about “keep[ing] the Palestinian cause alive – and its people,” and slammed Israel:

“No major capital—neither Beijing, nor Moscow, nor Washington—has labelled the Gaza campaign as ‘systematic killing,’ let alone moved to punish Israel under Chapter VII of the UN Charter.”

You are not left to guess which side of the conflict he is on.

Why Is the Trump Administration Selling Weapons to the World’s Leading State Sponsor of Terrorism?

“[US] colleges and universities have accepted $6.25 billion from Qatar since 2001. However, Qatar’s total spending likely exceeds that figure… Qatar is a major exporter of Islamist ideology, which it amplifies on the Qatar-owned Al Jazeera network. By pumping money into the American higher education system and across the United States, Qatar avoids scrutiny as it advances hostile ideologies.” — Natalie Ecanow, of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, in testimony to the Texas Legislature House Committee on Homeland Security, Public Safety & Veterans’ Affairs, April 2, 2025.

Qatar: Master Double-Dealer

There is a very good reason why the tiny Gulf state of Qatar finds itself so well-placed to play a central role in negotiating the release of Israeli hostages taken captive by Hamas during its barbaric assault against Israel.

The hundreds of millions of dollars the Qataris have given Hamas during the past decade have been instrumental in helping the terrorist group to develop the infrastructure that enabled it to carry out its murderous assault on Israel in the first place.

Europe at the Mercy of Qatar?

Belgian federal police recently found €150,000 ($157,700) in cash at the Brussels home of the Vice-President of the European Parliament, Eva Kaili (Panhellenic Socialist Movement), who was then arrested and charged with corruption. She remains in jail. Also arrested were Luca Visentini, secretary general of the International Trade Union Confederation, and former socialist MEP Pier-Antonio Panzeri. Francesco Giorgi, Kaili’s domestic partner and former parliamentary assistant to Panzeri, was also arrested. The home of MEP Marc Tarabella (Socialist Party) was searched.

Qatargate in Europe: The Left’s ideological pact with Islam is far beyond corruption

Recent revelations in the European Parliament are just the tip of the corruption and influence acquisition iiceberg of Doha in Europe.

From “gauche caviar”* to “gauche Qatar”… What is an atheist, LGBT, feminist, abortionist left doing arm in arm with Sharia, the Islamic law of Allah?

( “Gauche caviar” = *“caviar leftist” referring to a person who claims to be a socialist but leads a hypocritic lifestyle inconsistent with such beliefs. “Gauche” means left in French, ed.)

“Political Islam: How the Muslim Brotherhood Gained a Foothold in Brussels”. The weekly Marianne’s investigation on newsstands recounts a scandal that goes far beyond corruption and which has just led to the arrest and searches of numerous MPs and politicians and parliamentary assistants in the European Parliament, accused of corruption in dealings with Qatar.

In the words of L’Echo, “it is the tip of an immense iceberg”.

EU corruption scandal: European Parliament offices searched

It was the 20th search carried out since Friday and the parliament president, Roberta Metsola, warned MEPs that “democracy is under attack”.

Belgian police have charged four people, among them European Parliament Vice-President Eva Kaili, a Greek MEP.

Qatar has denied any wrongdoing and Ms Kaili’s lawyer says she is innocent.

How Qatar uses its wealth to challenge western values

The French have adopted a ‘when in Rome’ approach to the World Cup in Qatar, refraining from virtue-signalling their disapproval of their host’s beliefs. As their captain, Hugo Lloris, put it last week: ‘When we are in France, when we welcome foreigners, we often want them to follow our rules, to respect our culture, and I will do the same when I go to Qatar, quite simply. I can agree or disagree with their ideas, but I have to show respect.’

Qatar’s Double Game: Funding Islamists While Pretending to Be America’s Ally

A recent meeting in Doha, Qatar, between the Palestinian group, Hamas, and Afghanistan’s Taliban, has served as yet another reminder of Qatar’s double game of harboring and sponsoring Islamic extremists while simultaneously pretending to be an ally of the US and other Western countries.

This meeting, which took place on October 26, was attended by Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh who, together with several officials from that Islamist group, relocated from the Gaza Strip to Qatar over the past few years.
