We Condemn Zionist Israel’s State Terrorism Against Qatar
The Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Foundation (STBHF) strongly condemns without reservation the unprovoked attack on Qatar by the Israeli Zionist enclave. This cowardly and dastardly act was unleashed on 9th September, 2025. Unfortunately, the Trump administration in Washington not only supplied the intelligence needed, but also gave approval for war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu to carry this brutal attack.
We are gravely concerned about the impact of this violation of one of the most fundamental norms of international law that prohibits the use or threat of force by one state against another. We express our unwavering support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Qatar within its internationally recognised borders. The attack was launched on a civilian residential areas, where six people were killed including a Qatari security personnel.
According to reports, Hamas Peace Delegation was in Doha, the Qatari Capital when the Zionist enclave launched its criminal attack, but unable to kill the Hamas leaders. Supposed for instance the delegation was meeting with the Qatari Prime Minister or the Emir, this is how President Donald Trump will give Israel the order to strike on Qatar, especially the Capital-Doha? It is now incumbent upon the Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Foundation to not relent to speak out against Zionist Israeli aggression and to work within international bodies, including the United Nations and the African Union, to hold the Zionist regime accountable and to uphold the principle of sovereignty and territorial integrity of states.
The truth is that anything about ceasefire or peace negotiation to end the genocide and race purification campaign in Gaza or entire State of Palestine will only go against President Trump’s desire to turn Gaza a casino empire when he ends his presidency. Second, any proposal put forward by President Trump for a negotiated ceasefire in Gaza is a farce. This is nothing but act an act of hypocrisy and double standards. The United States must not be trusted to bring peace to the Middle east. History has taught us so.
Our unified message to President Donald Trump is clear. He must immediately order the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the occupied Arab lands and territories. He must order the Zionist state to end its brutal war and end the bloodshed. Israel must understand that the international community will stand resolute for as long as it takes to face down its aggression and attack on peace, sovereignty, stability and human rights. We are undeterred. Threats of escalation and vows to intensify the onslaught will not work.
The Palestinian people are holding their country against enormous odds, because they are not fighting for power or domination: they are fighting for their children, their families, their communities, their country and future generations. They are fighting for the very survival of their beautiful nation, which God-willing will soon become a member of the United Nations, the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation and League of Arab States.
The warmongers and the hawks who preach the might of militarism lead us nowhere. The international community understands the damaging and divisive legacy wrought by colonialism, occupation and the denial of self-determination. We know that Zionism has no place in a peaceful world, a world of rights, justice and equality. The global community has rightly stands against Zionist Israel’s unprovoked attack on Qatar and through their solidarity messages have vowed to stand against military aggression everywhere it is to be found because this is not a time for double standards or hypocrisy.
We must stand together against Israel's war on the Palestinian people, its apartheid regime and its occupation of Palestinian lands. The Israelis brazenly breach international law in another brutal expression of the destruction and division that the might is right principle has wrought upon humanity. This is a principle that no longer gives expression in the 21st century.
This is the time when we must recall that the whole of Qatar’s sovereign project is based on a series of fundamental values: the values of peace, respect of human rights, good governance, international rule of law and respect for shared history and cultural heritage. US backed Israel’s attack on Qatar represents the negation of these values and therefore should be understood as an attack on all people who cherish these values.
The Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Foundation expresses its deepest sympathy and support for the Qatari civilians who find themselves in an unwanted and tragic situation in which not only their peace but also their very lives are threatened by the Israeli state terrorism. We stand in solidarity with these Qatari people. We sympathise also with and support the competent authorities in Doha for standing against the Israeli state terrorism. We stand in solidarity with them too. The Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Foundation declares its support for the rights and freedoms enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights for all people and calls for a swift halt to hostilities and a peaceful end to this crisis in Palestine.
Long live the Emir of Qatar!
Long live Qatar!!
