BY BEN COHEN

As US President Donald Trump hosted Qatar’s Emir Tamim Bin Hamad Al Th ani at the White House on Tuesday, American Jewish leaders cautioned that any warming of relations between Washington, DC and Doha should not overlook the emirate’s ongoing fi nancial support for Pales- tinian terrorism, along with its promotion of virulently anti-Israel and antisemitic propaganda. “Th e President should hold Qatar accountable for the destabilizing role it is currently playing in the Middle East,”

Over the last decade, these groups – as well as others including the Muslim Brotherhood, the Taliban and Jabhat al-Nusra – have received billions of dollars in funding from Qatari sources. Weinberg argued that Qatar should “face consequences for its continued championing of Hamas, whose genocidal intentions are all too clear.” “There’s no excuse for a US-allied government like Qatar sponsoring Jew-hatred,” Weinberg emphasized. The WJC’s Ehrenberg added that the US should insist that Qatar use its influence with Hamas to secure the return of Israeli hostages currently held captive by the terrorist group in Gaza – a prospect dangled in September 2017 by US-based lobbyists for Qatar, tasked with improving the emirate’s image among American Jews, that remains unfulfilled. “President Trump should demand that Qatar prevail upon Hamas to return the Israeli MIA’s they are holding hostage,” Ehrenberg said. “Namely Avera Mengistu, a disabled Ethiopian Israeli they have been holding for three years with no word to Israel or to his parents, and the bodies of Hadar Goldin and Oron Shaul, who were kidnapped and brutally murdered by Hamas during a declared ceasefire in the 2014 war with Gaza.” One of the handful of American Jewish leaders to have traveled to Qatar as part of the emirate’s outreach effort agreed that Qatar needed to “do much more” to end its support for terrorism and antisemitic incitement. Morton Klein – President of the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA – nonetheless praised the emirate for having “taken some important steps in the right direction.” Specifi- cally, Klein cited the removal of antisemitic titles from the Doha Book Fair and the apparent cancellation by Al Jazeera of a purported TV exposé of the “American Jewish lobby” that was due to have been shown in April. In a statement on Tuesday, Klein additionally spoke of “an encouraging step this week,” in the form of ex-Qatari Prime Minister Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani’s tweet that “Israelis have a right to live in their land in peace and safety.​” “Former PM Hamad Al Thani wrote this in Arabic, which added to its significance,” Klein said. “ZOA hopes the Emir and other Qatari officials will​also ​ acknowledge and publicly Continued on Page A8 A6 | FRIDAY, APRIL 13, 2018 Opinion.
