🚨 Qatar has flooded the US with at least $400,000,000,000 ($400 BILLION) to buy influence across nearly every industry in America.

The unchecked influence buying of the Muslim Brotherhood’s primary state sponsor warrants serious scrutiny.

Qatar’s new HBCU effort should also be seen in its global context. In Africa-Israel Weekly (AIW)’s December 2025 piece, Israel’s Enemies Frustrated by Growing African Christian Zionism, the case is made that decades of anti-Zionist disinformation have had a negligible effect on Christians in Africa, the world’s fastest-growing population on the world’s fastest-growing continent.

Qatar (Muslim Brotherhood) is continuing the 60+ year tradition of focusing on the Black community for the purpose jihadist, anti-Israel, antisemitic exploitation. If Qatar cared about Black/African students at HBCUs, Qatar (and the broader Arab/Muslim world) world abolish the Trans Saharan Slave Trade of millions of Black Africans from which they’ve benefitted for some 1400 years.

That said, these HBCUs are following the example of the President and bipartisan lawmakers on Capitol Hill: Take Muslim Brotherhood terrorist money, because everyone else is.

Qatar’s campaign to buy influence is one of the biggest foreign influence operations in U.S. history.

🇶🇦 Qatari Government Restructures Education Influence Apparatus 🇶🇦

The Qatar Foundation just signed three new study-abroad agreements with several Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) at a conference in Florida: Hampton University, Xavier University of Louisiana, and Prairie View A&M University.

This very same week, according to @MikaHackner, Qatar sent notices that it's shutting down Qatar Foundation International, its US-based arm.

This isn't a coincidence.

QFI has been the subject of scrutiny lately over its influence on K-12 schools, garnering comparisons to the Chinese Confucius Institutes.

Now, it seems, Qatar is opting instead for direct partnerships with HBCUs signed out of Doha.

I doubt Qatar will actually end its efforts to influence K-12 — it'll just use another mechanism to do so.

And we have to find out what it is.

Curious that @QFIntl will “wind down” just a few months after I published examinations into their footprint in Texas and Georgia 🤔

Captivity survivor Alon Ohel: "I just heard that they took down the terrorist who was part of the squad that kidnapped me. I want to say thank you to the IDF, which is doing an amazing job in Gaza and Lebanon. Down to the last terrorist."

[Israel War Room @IsraelWarRoom]

🚨NEW: Hezbollah is reportedly rejecting a proposal under which Israel would refrain from striking terrorists in Beirut’s Dahiyeh district in exchange for an end to attacks on civilians in northern Israel, @IsraelHayomHeb reports.

The Iran-backed terror group is instead threatening to continue attacking Israeli communities as long as defensive Israeli operations continue in Lebanon.

In other words, Iran-backed Hezbollah is rejecting a path to de-escalation and insisting on preserving its ability to keep firing on Israeli population centers.

“Early marriage”? Really @AP? Adult men raping 13-year-old girls under laws that allow them to claim child-brides is merely “early marriage”? Why isn’t the title “WIDESPREAD CHILD RAPE IN GAZA ENFORCED BY PARENTS OF VICTIMS”??!

[Eli Steele @Hebro_Steele]

The question nobody is asking here is why did Digwa, the murderer of Henry, know that the police would believe him if he pulled the racist charge? The answer is simple: he knew that whites had been conditioned for decades to fear racism above all. So he played them like a violin.

How did China maintain a foothold in K12 schools after Confucius Institutes closed?

[Israel War Room @IsraelWarRoom]

The US and Israel made a simple offer to Hezbollah:

Stop bombing Israeli communities and the IDF will not strike Hezbollah’s Dahiyeh terror stronghold.

Hezbollah refused.

Israel will not allow Iran-backed terrorists to bomb Israeli communities with impunity.

A shocking video of a man upset with police in Salaberry-De-Valleyfield, QC for allowing protestors to march in a residential neighborhood.

As he walks off, police suddenly attack him from behind & beat him down to the delight of the terrorist sympathizing crowd.
