Hillary and Doha: Documents reveal US-Qatari conspiracy against Egypt and Middle East

The US State Department, under the administration of President Donald Trump, has declassified a number of e-mails from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, which included discussions about the political situation in Egypt and the Middle East, as well as Clinton’s relationship with Qatar and the Brotherhood in Egypt, Tunisia and Libya.

Invented chaos

The messages that were shown on the US State Department website showed Clinton’s close association with Qatar and its Al-Jazeera network, in addition to an attempt to exploit them to spread chaos in the Middle East region. The e-mails revealed Clinton’s visit to the Al-Jazeera headquarters in May 2010 and her meeting with the network’s director, Wadah Khanfar, and members of the channel’s board of directors, during which they discussed the visit of a delegation from the channel to Washington later in the same year. She also met with former Qatari Prime Minister Hamad bin Jassim Al Thani.

An e-mail from September 2010 highlighted Qatar’s cooperation with the Brotherhood in a project to establish a media channel with investments amounting to $100 million after the Brotherhood organization complained about the weakness of its institutions. The e-mail pointed to Clinton’s request to Doha to finance the Brotherhood through a fund dedicated to the Clinton Foundation.

Democrat scandal

The leaked document also revealed that the terrorist organization stipulated upon Qatar that Brotherhood leader Khairat al-Shater take over the management of the channel and be a direct supervisor of the institution that Doha would finance, although the declassified e-mails did not clarify the fate of the project.

According to the e-mails, the United States launched the Egyptian-American Enterprise Fund and a similar project in Tunisia with the aim of providing job opportunities and contributing to the expansion of the small business sector by increasing access to capital and strengthening the private sector. Clinton called on former Qatari Prime Minister Hamad bin Jassim to discuss the Egyptian-American Enterprise Fund project and Doha’s participation in it.

Supporting the Brotherhood

The messages showed Qatar's desire to interfere in Egyptian and Tunisian affairs by using money to support the Brotherhood regimes that swept to power in the wake of the chaos that swept through many countries in the region, including Egypt and Tunisia, in 2011.

In the same context, Hillary sought to overthrow ate Libyan President Muammar Gaddafi and destroy state institutions in Libya, considering that achieving the matter would have been a trump card for her campaign in the presidential election. Therefore, Clinton prepared a document in late 2011 called “Libya”, which contained the sequence of events and prepared a chronological description of the process to destroy Libya.

Qatari conspiracy

In this regard, Yemeni political researcher Waddah bin Attia tweeted that Hillary Clinton’s e-mails revealed the Qatari-Brotherhood conspiracy against Arab countries, pointing out that they also showed honorable stances for the UAE and Saudi Arabia, represented in their categorical rejection of the invasion of Iraq and state sabotage, as opposed to the cooperation that Doha has shown to bring down regimes and sabotage states.
