Suspend Qatar’s status as a Major Non-NATO Ally (MNNA) until it no longer supports terrorists, including Hamas.
The Biden administration granted Qatar major non-NATO ally status in 2022. However, concerns persist regarding Qatar's support for Hamas, a designated terrorist organization, and its hosting of Hamas.
Qatar's recent emergence as a key intermediary in the Gaza conflict, particularly in the hostage negotiations following Hamas's October 7 attack on Israel, has raised critical questions about the nation's duplicitous geopolitical allegiances and the ethical implications of its involvement.
Qatar is reported to be the main funder of major Islamic terrorist organizations including Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, al-Qaeda, and the Al-Nusra front facilitating an annual turnover of $1 billion, while also providing billions of dollars to American universities and think tanks.
Qatar's significant financial support for Hamas, estimated at approximately $360 million annually since 2021, surpasses Iran's contributions. This funding, coupled with a safe haven in Qatar, for Hamas operation leaders where they have even coordinated and planned attacks in previous years must end!
