CEP CALLS FOR BOYCOTT OF QATARI HOTELS TO FORCE SURRENDER OF HAMAS LEADERSHIP


(New York, N.Y.) — Today, Counter Extremism Project (CEP) Chief Executive
Officer Ambassador Mark D. Wallace and CEP President Frances F. Townsend
announced a global boycott of Qatari-owned hotel properties until Qatar and the
Al Thani Royal Family surrender the orchestrators of the savage October 7th
massacre in Israel.



Qatar’s
<[link removed]> role
in the atrocities perpetrated by Hamas in Israel is indisputable:



Ismail Haniyeh <[link removed]>,
who planned andcelebrated
<[link removed]>
the Israeli massacre from his office in Doha, is provided with five-star
accommodations in Qatar. Former Hamas leader and Haniyeh’s predecessor,Khaled
Meshaal <[link removed]>, is
afforded the same privileges.



On October 7, mere hours after the slaughter, Qatar’s foreign ministry claimed
<[link removed]>
to “hold Israel solely responsible for the ongoing escalation [i.e. the
massacre of Israeli women and children by Hamas] due to its ongoing violations.”



On October 11, Haniyeh issued a video address
<[link removed]>
calling for supporters around the world to join Hamas in its pursuit of
barbaric violence. This global platform was provided by the Al Thanis on the
Qatari-owned and controlled network, Al Jazeera.



On October 12, Meshaal echoed
<[link removed]>
Haniyeh’s address, calling for an October 13 “Day of Rage” from the comfort of
his accomadations in Qatar.



On October 14, Qatar hosted a meeting
<[link removed]>
between Haniyeh and Iran’s foreign minister, who congratulated Haniyeh on his
successful execution of thousands of innocent Israelis.



On October 16, the Qatari Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs stated
<[link removed]> that Qatar would not be closing
Hamas’ political office, nor detaining any senior Hamas figures.



On October 19, while in Qatar, Meshaal flatly and repeatedly refused
<[link removed]> to acknowledge any harm
inflicted upon Israeli civilians in a TV interview with Al-Arabiya and referred
to the massacre as “an ingenious moment.”



Qatar has financed Hamas since at least 2018 to the tune of $360 to $480
million annually. Hamas leadership lives and operates comfortably there while
the Al Thanis promote its malign activities. CEP hascalled
<[link removed]> on Qatar to arrest
Hamas leadership since 2017. There is no excuse for their refusal to do so.



Ambassador Wallace and former U.S. Homeland Security Advisor Frances F.
Townsend stated:



“Qatar’s hospitality has allowed Hamas leadership to oversee its atrocities in
comfort, safety, and luxury. The Al-Thanis claim to be a U.S. ally while
playing host to the Osama bin-Laden of our time. They must enact real justice
by detaining the criminals they harbor. Until they do, Qatar should feel the
full weight of economic and diplomatic isolation, beginning with a boycott of
its extensive hotel holdings.



No one should walk through the halls of any Qatari-owned properties worldwide
as long as Hamas’s mass murderers sit in luxury in Doha’s five-star
accomodations.”



CEP has already
<[link removed]>
demanded that Qatar and the Al Thani Royal Family detain Haniyeh and other
Doha-based Hamas leadership. They have refused. CEP hascalled
<[link removed]>
for a global Qatar asset freeze until and unless Doha complies. They have not
responded.



It is untenable that the Qatari government should continue to profit from its
business interests around the world while funds are re-patriated and used to
support the perpetrators of mass murder. CEP now calls for a full boycott of
all Qatari-owned hotel properties, beginning with:

* The Savoy Hotel, London
* The Ritz-Carlton, London
* The Connaught, London
* The Churchill, London
* The Plaza Hotel, New York
* The Westin Excelsior, Rome
* The St. Regis, San Francisco
No responsible party should patronize a Qatari-owned business as long as Qatar
refuses to take responsibility for its role in one of the worst atrocities in
living memory.
