Events <[link removed]>Tomorrow in DC: Qatar Embassy Gathering



<[link removed]>Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) • Friday, February 2, 2024 at 9:30 am







Join the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington to  press the Qatari government to demand Hamas immediately release over 130 hostages still being held in Gaza.



We must continue to strongly encourage Qatar to apply maximum pressure on Hamas.



Join us on Friday, February 2, 9:30 AM for another peaceful gathering outside theQatari Embassy (2555 M. St NW)to ensure our community's voice is being heard.Congressman David Tronewill attend and deliver remarks at Friday's gathering.



Why Qatar?



Qatar provides funding to Hamas <[link removed]> and offers refuge to its leadership <[link removed]>.



Qatar has helped to successfully mediate the release of more than 100 hostages. 



But this is not enough.



Qatar must use its enormous leverage over Hamas and demand the immediate release of more than 130 remaining hostages who have now surpassed 100 days in captivity.



We want them home now.  



What are we doing?



The Washington, D.C. region is home to the nation’s third largest Jewish community, and the Qatari Embassy is in the heart of the District of Columbia.



Our Jewish community is uniquely positioned to stress the absolute need for Qatar to prioritize the release of American and Israeli hostages. 



We will peacefully gather to demand Qatar exert maximum pressure on Hamas to set free all remaining hostages. This is the same message expressed in a bipartisan letter to President Biden last month <[link removed]>.



With limited nearby parking options, we strongly encourage attendees to use public transportation. The closest metro stations are Foggy Bottom-GWU (Blue/Orange/Silver) and Dupont Circle (Red).



Materials and signage will be handed out at the gathering. Israeli and American Flags and hostage posters are welcome.
