Terrorism international framework: General UNSC resolutions on terrorism. 

In addition to the 19 international instruments, the UN Security Council has taken an increasingly active role in countering terrorism since the late 1990s. The Council has adopted a series of counter-terrorism resolutions, some of which are legally binding upon UN Member States as they were adopted under Chapter VII of the UN Charter, and form a core part of the international legal framework to counter terrorism. Below is an overview of some of the principal counter-terrorism resolutions issued by the UN Security Council: 1373 (2001), 1456 (2003), 1566 (2004), and 2178 (2014). Some of the UN Security Council resolutions linking terrorism to specific crime types, such as trafficking in firearms, cultural property, human trafficking and migrants smuggling are also briefly analysed, such as UNSC resolutions 2199 (2015), 2331 (2016) and 2388 (2017).Following the attacks on the United States in 2001, the UNSC issued resolution 1373 (2001), which requires all States to ensure that terrorism related offences and terrorist financing be treated as serious crimes. UNSC resolution 1373 mandates States to harmonize their national laws with the existing international framework on terrorism. The resolution did not include a definition of terrorism, which some scholars have argued leads to "decentralized and haphazard national implementation" (Saul, 2015).Subsequently, the Security Council adopted resolutions 1456 (2003) and 1566 (2004). UNSC 1456 is the first counter-terrorism resolution to mention State responsibility to uphold and protect "human rights" (para. 6). It also notes the relationship between terrorism and criminal activity: "terrorists must also be prevented from making use of other criminal activities such as transnational organized crime, illicit drugs and drug trafficking, money-laundering and illicit arms trafficking." UNSC resolution 1566 sets out guidelines for improved national implementation of UNSC 1373.UNSC 1566 calls on States to prevent and punish:(C)riminal acts, including against civilians, committed with the intent to cause death or serious bodily injury, or taking of hostages, with the purpose to provoke a state of terror in the general public or in a group of persons or particular persons, intimidate a population or compel a government or an international organization to do or to abstain from doing an act […] are under no circumstances justifiable by considerations of a political, philosophical, ideological, racial, ethnic, religious or other similar nature […] (para. 3).In response to the rise of the entity called the Islamic State, the Security Council issued resolution 2178 (2014), which requires all States to ensure that travel related to the planning, preparing, or execution of terrorist training, or to participate in terrorist acts, are criminalized under national legislation and be treated as serious offences. This resolution requires that States prohibit individuals believed to be "foreign terrorist fighters" from crossing their borders, ban funding for such individuals; prosecute, rehabilitate and reintegrate "returning foreign fighters"; and stop "recruiting, organising transporting or equipping" anyone going abroad for terrorist acts or training. Subsequently, Security Council resolution 2396 (2017) reiterated the importance of adopting strategies in connection with the movement, prosecution, rehabilitation and reintegration of Foreign Terrorist Fighters and Returnees and of strengthening judicial measures and international cooperation.Furthermore, with the aim of putting an end to the trade with Al-Qaida Associated Groups, the Security Council unanimously adopted resolution 2199 (2015), condemning the destruction of cultural heritage in Iraq and Syria and deciding that all Member States should take steps to prevent the trade in items of cultural, scientific and religious importance from either country. The same resolution also reaffirmed, inter alia, States' obligations to prevent the groups from acquiring arms and related material.The Security Council has voiced in multiple resolutions its condemnation of the crime of trafficking in persons carried out by terrorist groups (e.g. see: 2331 (2016), 2379 (2017), 2380 (2017) and 2388 (2017)). Notably, resolution 2331 (2016) specifically condemned "all acts of trafficking, particularly the sale or trade in persons undertaken by the 'Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant' (ISIL, also known as Da'esh), including of Yazidis and other persons belonging to religious and ethnic minorities," as well as "trafficking in persons and violations and other abuses committed by Boko Haram, Al-Shabaab, the Lord's Resistance Army, and other terrorist or armed groups for the purpose of sexual slavery, sexual exploitation, and forced labour." In UNSC resolution 2388 (2017), the Council reiterated such condemnation and stressed that trafficking undermines the rule of law and contributes to other forms of transnational organized crime that could foster insecurity and instability and exacerbate conflict. Lastly, the Council also passed relevant resolutions mentioning potential linkages between trafficking in persons, smuggling of migrants and terrorism, mostly with reference to the situations in Libya and Mali (e.g. see 2240 (2015) and 2380 (2017) on Libya, and 2374 (2017) on Mali).In 2019, the Security Council reiterated the concern that terrorists can benefit from organized crime (domestic or transnational) as a source of financing or logistical support, and from offences such as trafficking in persons and arms, drugs, cultural property, illicit trade of natural resources, kidnapping for ransom, extortion, bank robbery and transnational organized crime at sea. The Security Council highlighted the importance of continuing strengthening the efforts to prevent corruption, the financing of terrorist acts, money laundering and illicit drug-related activities (see resolutions 2462 (2019) and 2482 (2019)).

IDF thwarting terror in Judea, Samaria ahead of High Holidays-A convergence of several events could further inflame tensions, starting with the expected recognition of "Palestine" at the United Nations.JNS Staff

(Sept. 15, 2025 / JNS)-The Israel Defense Forces is continuing to operate in Judea and Samaria “in accordance with the ongoing security assessment,” the military said in a statement to JNS on Friday, amid fears of an escalation ahead of the Jewish High Holidays.“The IDF operates at all times in Judea and Samaria in cooperation with other security agencies to thwart terrorism and ensure the safety of the region’s residents,” the army added.The IDF told JNS on Monday that it was “monitoring developments and carrying out operations on an ongoing basis” in response to intelligence.“In addition, training, exercises and force build-up programs are being advanced, as well as reinforcement of forces along the seam line and strengthening the defense of the roads and communities,” it stated.Israel Hayom cited IDF officials last week saying that a convergence of events could further inflame tensions, starting with the expected recognition of a Palestinian state by several Western countries at the United Nations General Assembly debate, which begins Sept. 23.The French-led initiative to recognize “Palestine” at the U.N. has prompted Jerusalem to seriously consider extending sovereignty over Judea and Samaria, territories Israel’s military retook during the 1967 Six-Day War.Next week’s U.N. move also coincides with Rosh Hashanah as well as the Palestinian olive harvest across Judea and Samaria, Israel Hayom noted.The military has also identified attempts by foreign actors to carry out “as many attacks as possible in Judea and Samaria” as the Jewish holiday season approaches, according to the report.“Operation Iron Wall,” launched by the IDF in January against Iranian-backed terrorist groups in the Samaria refugee camps, has led to a decline in both terror attacks and attempted attacks.Since the start of 2025, 16 people have been killed in Arab terrorist attacks across Israel, compared with 37 during the same period last year, Israel Hayom reported.Following the Sept. 9 attack in Jerusalem that killed six, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that eliminating the two terrorists responsible, along with their accomplices, is “not enough.”“My directive is to forcefully go after the nests of terrorism,” he stated.He noted that the IDF already “eliminated the nests of terror in three refugee camps” as part of “Operation Iron Wall” in northern Samaria.“We simply evacuated the population from there and flattened all terrorist infrastructure, and my directive is to do this in additional terrorist nests,” said the premier.

Israel warns Jews abroad of terror threat ahead of High Holidays-As the Gaza war grinds on, there is a worsening trend of violence by anti-Israel elements.-JNS Staff

(Sept. 14, 2025 / JNS)-Ahead of the High Holidays, which start with the Jewish New Year at sundown on Sept. 22, Israel’s National Security Council (NSC) issued a travel warning to the public on Sunday about possible threats so that it could take preventive measures.The warning, issued through the Prime Minister’s Office, was not a new travel alert but an up-to-date review of the main trends in terrorist activity around the world, the NSC said.“The recent period has been characterized by continued efforts to carry out terrorist attacks against Israeli and Jewish targets by the various terrorist organizations (most of them led by Iran and Hamas),” according to the statement.As the Gaza war grinds on, there is also a worsening trend of antisemitism abroad, “to the point of physically harming Israelis and Jews,” warned the NSC. The trend was driven at least in part due to an anti-Israel narrative and a “negative media campaign by pro-Palestinian elements,” the statement continued.The trend is liable to “encourage and motivate” extremists to carry out terrorist acts against Israelis and Jews abroad, according to the NSC.Iran remains the No. 1 source of terrorism against Israelis and Jews around the world, directly and through its proxies, according to the NSC.“Iranian motivation is growing in light of the severe blows it suffered in the framework of ‘Operation Rising Lion’ and the growing desire for revenge,” it reported, referring to the 12-day Israel-Iran war.The statement went on to note that dozens of Iranian-directed terrorist acts had been thwarted over the past year, some of which had targeted Israeli missions abroad, former senior Israeli officials and various Israeli and Jewish targets.Hamas, too, is expanding its activities to promote attacks against Jews and Israelis abroad, according to the NSC. Other radical Islamic groups also pose a threat, including Islamic State, Al Qaeda, and Al-Shabaab, it warned.The NSC noted an assessment from the Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center (ITIC) according to which Oct. 7, 2025, the second anniversary of the Hamas invasion, could motivate terrorists, both organized and lone wolves, to carry out attacks against Israeli and Jewish targets abroad.“The bottom line is that the various terrorist elements (Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, global jihad) maintain high activity and motivation to promote attacks against Israelis and Jews around the world,” the NSC said.The NSC called on the Israeli public to act responsibly while abroad, to check for travel warnings before purchasing tickets and to follow NSC recommendations, including:1. becoming familiar with the destination country, its population composition, security situation, regime. 2. Refraining from exhibiting external Israeli and Jewish symbols. 3. Avoiding speaking Hebrew in public places. 4. Not participating in large events that are not secure. 5. Avoiding traveling to isolated sites without the presence of security personnel. 6. obtaining contact numbers with local security officials in advance. 7. Staying alert while staying at the destination, paying attention to the surroundings. 8. Staying away from demonstrations and protests. 9. Refraining from holding a dialogue about service in Israel’s security forces with unfamiliar elements.The NSC stressed the risk of sharing content on social media, which can lead to the account’s owner becoming a target. “Therefore, we recommend that you do not upload to social networks in any way content that attests to service in the security forces, operational activity or similar content, as well as real-time locations,” it said.JNS has reported on a new group, the Hind Rajab Foundation, based in Brussels, which has mounted a legal action campaign, identifying IDF soldiers traveling abroad via their social media accounts.The NSC concluded its report with a list of countries to avoid, including Iraq, Yemen, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Bangladesh, Somalia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Libya, Algeria, Jordan, Egypt and Turkey.It noted global jihad elements are prominent in some parts of Africa, including the Horn of Africa, the Sahel, and Central Africa, and in Asia (Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, the Kashmir region in India, and Indonesia.) The NSC repeated a Level 4 travel warning for the Sinai Peninsula, reflecting a high threat and stressing that the area should be avoided, with an emphasis to steer clear of the Sinai coast. 

The Mirage of Friendship: Qatar, Hamas, 9/11, and America’s Dangerous Illusion of an Ally-Sep 14,25

I. Shadows in Doha: How KSM Slipped Through Qatar’s Hands-In the mid-1990s, the man who would become the mastermind of the September 11 attacks—Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM)—was living comfortably in Doha, Qatar. He had moved there around 1992 and worked as a project engineer in the Ministry of Electricity and Water, securing the position through Sheikh Abdullah bin Khalid Al-Thani, then a senior Qatari official known for Islamist sympathies.In January 1996, the U.S. indicted KSM for his role in the “Bojinka” plot, a plan to bomb a dozen U.S. airliners over the Pacific. American officials quietly asked Qatar to arrest him. Instead, a senior Qatari official tipped KSM off, and he fled Doha just hours before the FBI arrived. This fateful moment, documented by the 9/11 Commission Report, allowed KSM to disappear, regroup, and later orchestrate the 9/11 attacks that killed 2,977 people.This episode shows Qatar as a state that shielded a future mass murderer from justice—an early, stark indication that its loyalty to U.S. security interests was paper-thin when it conflicted with Islamist political sympathies.
II. The Muslim Brotherhood Nexus: Qatar’s Ideological Anchor-To understand Qatar’s embrace of Hamas, one must understand its deep ties to the Muslim Brotherhood (Ikhwan).The Brotherhood is a transnational Islamist movement founded in Egypt, and Hamas was created in 1987 as the Palestinian branch of the Brotherhood.Qatar has long sheltered and supported prominent Brotherhood clerics, including Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the group’s chief ideologue, who lived in Doha for decades and shaped its religious and political policies.These ties mean Qatar does not merely tolerate Hamas — it sees Hamas as part of a broader ideological project. While the U.S. labels the Brotherhood as a non-designated movement, its worldview directly conflicts with Western pluralism and fuels extremism.This Brotherhood link explains why Doha treats Hamas not as a terrorist outlier but as an ideological ally.
III. Al Jazeera: Qatar’s Brotherhood-Aligned Propaganda Arm-No instrument has projected Qatar’s Islamist narrative more powerfully than Al Jazeera, its state-owned media empire.Al Jazeera was founded in 1996 with substantial Qatari royal funding and staffed from the outset by journalists and ideologues aligned with the Muslim Brotherhood.It amplified Brotherhood leaders like Yusuf al-Qaradawi, giving him a weekly program for years that legitimized suicide bombings and demonized the West and Israel.During and after 9/11, Al Jazeera was notorious for broadcasting al-Qaeda propaganda videos from Osama bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri unedited, presenting them as “exclusive journalism” while framing the attacks as “resistance.”Internal whistleblowers and external media watchdogs documented celebratory tones and rhetoric within Al Jazeera’s Arabic broadcasts about the “success” of 9/11, contrasting with their more moderated English-language coverage aimed at Western audiences.On and after October 7, 2023, when Hamas massacred over 1,100 Israeli civilians, Al Jazeera Arabic ran coverage framing the attacks as a “heroic operation” and repeatedly aired celebratory footage from Gaza. Commentators tied to the Brotherhood praised the “martyrs,” further demonstrating its alignment with Hamas’s worldview.In effect, Al Jazeera functions as the global propaganda wing of the Muslim Brotherhood—and by extension, Hamas—while cloaked as a legitimate news network. Its dual-language strategy (fiery in Arabic, sanitized in English) allows it to shape Western discourse while radicalizing Arabic-speaking audiences.This state-funded propaganda machine gives Qatar soft power far beyond its size, letting it normalize extremist ideology and glorify terrorism under the banner of journalism.
IV. Hamas’s Political Sanctuary in Doha-After being expelled from Damascus in 2012, Hamas’s political leadership resettled in Doha. Figures like Khaled Mashaal and Ismail Haniyeh have operated openly from Qatar ever since. While Qatar claims their presence is about facilitating “mediation,” the effect is that a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization has enjoyed political sanctuary in a supposed U.S. ally’s capital.At the same time, Qatar has pumped hundreds of millions of dollars into Gaza—often about $30 million per month at its peak—ostensibly for salaries, electricity, and humanitarian relief. Yet these payments bolstered Hamas’s de facto governance, freeing up the group’s other resources for military activity.This posture is not neutrality; it is active enablement of a group directly opposed to U.S. policy and values.
V. The Deeper Financial Web: Qatar’s Role in Global Terror Finance-Qatar’s ties to extremist finance go beyond Hamas.Abd al-Rahman al-Nu’aymi, a Qatari national, was designated by the U.S. Treasury in 2013 as a “Qatar-based terrorist financier” for sending millions of dollars to al-Qaeda affiliates in Iraq, Syria, Somalia, and Yemen.Khalifa al-Subaiy, a former Qatar Central Bank official, was also sanctioned for funding al-Qaeda and even personally assisting KSM. Arrested in Qatar in 2008, he was later released and reportedly resumed financial activity.The Union of Good, a network of over 50 charities blacklisted by the U.S. Treasury in 2008, has long funneled funds to Hamas under the guise of humanitarian work. Qatar Charity was alleged to be part of this network.Hamas has diversified into crypto wallets, hawala networks, and commercial front companies, with Qatar- and Turkey-based facilitators managing parts of its investment portfolio.Lawsuits by U.S. terror victims have even alleged that major Qatari banks and Qatar Charity funneled money that enabled attacks killing Americans, highlighting how Qatar’s banking system has been exploited—or permitted to be exploited—for terror financing.Canadian audits and reports have also flagged Qatar-linked donations to charities and student groups in Canada, showing how these networks can extend into Western civil society, often under the radar of regulators.
VI. Israel’s Recent Strike in Doha: The Breaking Point-In September 2025, Israel launched a precision airstrike in Doha targeting senior Hamas leaders who were operating from Qatari soil. This was the first known Israeli military action on Qatari territory, a dramatic signal that Israel no longer accepts Doha as a neutral broker but sees it as a direct operational hub for Hamas.Israel stated the strike aimed to decapitate Hamas’s leadership structure after the group orchestrated mass-casualty attacks from Gaza and Lebanon.Qatar condemned the strike as a “flagrant violation of sovereignty,” while the U.S. simultaneously criticized the strike but defended Qatar’s mediation role.The incident crystallized the contradiction of U.S. policy: defending Qatar as an “ally” while its territory hosts the very group Washington designates as a terrorist organization.This event shattered the diplomatic illusion that Qatar’s Hamas hosting is harmless — it has now made Doha itself a military target.
VII. Why the U.S. Still Calls Qatar an “Ally”Given this record, why has the U.S.—including Donald Trump—publicly called Qatar an ally? The answer lies in realpolitik, not shared values.Strategic Pros (Why Trump and others embraced Qatar) Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar is the largest U.S. military base in the Middle East, hosting over 10,000 troops and CENTCOM’s forward headquarters.Qatar serves as a diplomatic backchannel to groups the U.S. can’t engage with openly. It hosted the Taliban peace talks in 2020, facilitated hostage negotiations with Hamas, and has served as a conduit for delicate regional diplomacy.Qatar buys billions in U.S. weapons and commercial goods, including major Boeing aircraft purchases during Trump’s presidency, which aligned with his transactional foreign policy style focused on American jobs and industry.
Strategic Cons (Why this is dangerous)-Qatar directly undermines U.S. counterterrorism aims by harboring Hamas leaders and funding Gaza in ways that stabilize Hamas rule.Qatar enabled KSM’s escape in 1996, allowing the mastermind of 9/11 to remain free and complete his plot.Qatar hosts or tolerates known terror financiers who have supported al-Qaeda and related networks.Qatar’s ideological affinity for the Muslim Brotherhood and its state-run Al Jazeera propaganda arm makes it structurally sympathetic to Islamist movements hostile to the West.Publicly calling Qatar an “ally” confuses expediency with loyalty and misleads the American public about Qatar’s role, making it appear trustworthy while it actively aids groups that target U.S. interests.Trump’s approach reflected pragmatism—he prioritized maintaining military access and striking economic deals. But praising Qatar as a “friend” obscured the reality that Qatar’s interests often run directly counter to American security and values.
VIII. The Core Contradiction: Partner of Convenience, Not Ally of Principle-Qatar is not a friend in the moral sense. It is a partner of convenience that has repeatedly shown willingness to harbor extremists, fund Islamist groups, and shield figures like KSM when it suits its agenda—while simultaneously hosting America’s largest Middle Eastern base and courting U.S. praise.This duality explains why Trump, Biden, Obama, and Bush all maintained ties with Qatar: breaking with Doha could disrupt U.S. military operations, but embracing Doha carries the cost of legitimizing a state that empowers America’s enemies.Calling Qatar an “ally” might serve short-term U.S. strategic interests—but it erodes long-term moral clarity and allows one of the world’s most effective enablers of terrorism to operate behind the mask of friendship.

How Qatar funds Muslim Brotherhood expansion in Europe-Gulf News interviews French author George Malbrunot on his recent book Qatar Papers-Last updated: April 17, 2019 | 12:00-Sami Moubayed, Correspondent

How Qatar funds Muslim Brotherhood expansion in Europe-Beirut: Ninety per cent of Qatari funds to the EU were channeled to Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated projects, two French authors have confirmed, supporting claims made since the summer of 2017 by Saudi Arabia and the UAE.One of the authors—prominent investigative journalist George Malbrunot—spoke to Gulf News about his new book Qatar Papers: How the State Finances Islam in France and Europe.It has been co-authored with his colleague Christian Chesnot, a ranking expert on the Arab World.“This is not fantasy,” Malbrunot said in an exclusive interview.“The evidence we published was based on bank transfers, cheques, and official letters. It is evidence that they simply cannot contest.”A total of 140 projects spread in Europe—mainly mosques and Islamic centers—were directly funded by Qatar over the past eight years.George Malbrunot, journalist-The two journalists started working on their 295-page book in late 2016, after receiving an information-packed USB from a whistleblower, filled with documents from database of the Qatar Foundation, headed by Shaikha Moza Bint Nasser Al Misned, and Qatar Charity, headed by a relative of her son, the Emir, Sheikh Hamad Bin Nasser Al Thani.Much of the funding came from Qatar Charity, an NGO that was set up in 1992 originally to help orphans from the Afghan War, then expanded horizontally and vertically across the globe, with the lion’s share of its activities focused on Europe.“A total of 140 projects spread in Europe—mainly mosques and Islamic centers—were directly funded by Qatar over the past eight years,” he said.Their activities spread across territory from north of Norway to the coast of Normandy, France, totaling 90 million Euros.“Ninety per cent of that activity was linked to Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated organisations through a system that is very efficient, sophisticated — and legal,” he added.“Much of the funding came from three sources: the Diwani Al Amiri, office of the former emir, Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani, and the Qatar Charity.”“Qatar wants to buy influence in Europe,” explained Malbrunot, making use of its excessive wealth, which transformed it from a “country of fishermen” into a world influencer. Ultimately, Doha would like to control and influence Islamic societies across the European continent, “a task previously handled by Morocco, Algeria, Turkey, or Saudi Arabia.”Stunning revelations-An ever-present thread in the book’s revelations are links to the Brotherhood—outlawed throughout most of the world for its links to global jihad and terrorism.“One document shows that the Qatar Foundation pays Tarek Ramadan (grandson of the Brotherhood’s founder Hasan Al Banna) a monthly salary of 35,000 euros (Dh145,521).”The amount was allocated to help Ramadan ward off accusations of rape and sexual misconduct, levied against him in November 2017.They prompted him to leave his academic job as professor at the University of Oxford, relocating to Doha where he now teaches at the Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani University and chairs the Research Center of Islamic Legislation in Qatar.Before his trial, Ramadan withdrew 590,000 euros from Qatari banks, allegedly for his defense team.Research for the book took Mablrunot and Chesnot to Switzerland, the UK, Germany, Kosovo, France — and Qatar of course.In the island of Jersey in the English canal, Qatar set up a mosque, “although there are no more than 400 people living there”.In northern France, they donated hefty sums to the Ibn Rushd School in the city of Lille, and also to another private school in the southern city of Bordeaux.They also financed 50 similar projects in Italy, and channeled 3.6 million euros to Switzerland between the years 2011-2014.“They were used to fund the Muslim Cultural Complex of Lausanne, the Museum of Islamic Civilisation in La Chaux-de-Fonds in the canton of Neuchâtel, and the Saladine Mosque in Bienne (canton of Bern).“The Muslim Brotherhood philosophy is to encompass people’s lives from birth to death. All of the Qatar-financed projects tried to do just that, surrounding mosques with schools, swimming pools, restaurants, and even morgues.”“When we spoke with people administering these centers, they would say: ‘We are not members of the Brotherhood. All of our funding is 100 per cent legal.”“Yet, when we entered the libraries of these mosques and schools, we found the books of Shaikh Yousuf Al Qaradawi (the Doha-based Egyptian mentor of the Brotherhood). His books were everywhere, and so were those of Sayyid Qutob (one of the historic leaders of the Egyptian Brother hood).”International pressure on Doha“After years of (presidents) Sarkozy and Holland, Emanuel Macron said that he has had enough. When Emir Tamim called him to congratulate him on his election, the French President said: ‘I will keep the partnership with Qatar, but I don’t want financing of any future project without my knowledge.”Qatar, he notes, came under immense pressure to change its behaviour after its standoff with GCC countries in mid-2017.Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain and Egypt severed ties with the country on June 5, accusing it of backing the Muslim Brotherhood and promoting extremist ideology.“In some cases, it complied, but in others, it tried to play a double game, like closing the London headquarters of Qatar Charity, then re-opened with a rebrand, being Nectar Trust. It just dropped the word ‘Qatar’ from its name.”Mabrlunot and Chesnot rose to global fame in 2004, when they were held captive for five months in Iraq by the Islamic Army. It is their third book on Qatar after Les secrets du coffre-fort (Secrets of the Safe, 2013) and Nos tres chers emirs (Our Very Dear Emirs, 2016). Next September, they will be releasing a documentary about their new book, providing a visual aid to Qatar Papers. It wi
