Qatar has been closely tied for decades to the Muslim Brotherhood, which is waging a global jihad to crush the enemies of Islam — especially Israel and America. The Brotherhood’s motto is a blood-curdling threat:

Allah is our objective; the Prophet is our leader; the Quran is our law; Jihad is our way; dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.

Egypt kicked out the Muslim Brotherhood’s spiritual leader Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, a poisonous peddler of vile antisemitism and global jihad. Qaradawi said Hitler was Allah’s punishment on the Jews and added his hope for a second Holocaust at the hand of Muslims: “Allah willing, the next time will be at the hand of the believers.”

Despite that, Qatar welcomed Qaradawi to live in Qatar and gave him a weekly program on Al-Jazeera — Qatar’s wholly-owned TV network that promotes jihad.

In so doing, Qatar turned the “emirate into a center for spreading global jihad and terrorism,” says Jerusalem-based reporter Khaled Abu Toameh.

And just like in Gaza where young Palestinians have been fed a curriculum laced with bitter hate for Israel, Qatari schools are hotbeds of unbridled anti-Jewish bigotry.

The day after Hamas committed unspeakable atrocities against Israeli Jews on Oct. 7, an imam at a Qatari boys’ school prayed for Israel’s defeat:

O Allah, punish the usurping Jews ... Give victory to your monotheistic servants in Gaza, O Lord of the Worlds. O Allah, be their helper, supporter, ally, and protector ... O Allah, grant us jihad against the Jews ... O Allah, be support for our oppressed brothers in Gaza ... Grant them victory over your enemy and their enemy.

With Donald Trump in the White House and Netanyahu leading Israel, we have a golden opportunity — a once-in-a-generation window of time — to make historic gains in securing the future of both the U.S. and Israel.

That is why Christians in Defense of Israel MUST be stronger than ever and why your generous donation now is so needed.

Your staunch defense of the world’s only Jewish state — especially since Oct. 7, 2023, when Hamas savages murdered more than 1,200 Israelis and took some 250 hostages — is recognized and enormously appreciated in Israel.

Please help us continue this God-honoring, Israel-supporting work with a special gift to help our ministry with a generous one-time gift or even a small recurring monthly gift.

May God bless you for standing with Israel as He emphasizes in Genesis 12:3!
