1) Emissary Steve Witkoff’s positive perspectives on Qatar were/are actually shocking to me. Remember, CTH is banned from view in Qatar, and even the U.S. military there cannot access CTH in that duty station.
Qatar is NOT a good actor in the Mideast conflict. On this material supposition and presentation, I comprehensively disagree with Witkoff and would love to debate this matter with him.
I can only conclude there is some financial relationship between Witkoff and the Qataris that lies behind his views.
Qatar provided safe haven for the 5 key Muslim Brotherhood agitators who were exiled from Egypt, and Qatar was factually the GCC nation that had to be confronted for their support of Islamic extremism by Egypt, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and UAE.
Why Witkoff puts such a positive spin on Qatar, and why Tucker Carlson seemingly affirms and goes along with it is quite odd, given the nature of the discussion.
Qatar funds Al Jazeera, the major propaganda wing of the Islamic extremist coalition supported by the Muslim Brotherhood.
Qatar funds the Brookings Institute, which also then funds the operational efforts of all the Lawfare and CIA agencies.
Qatar is factually in a very deep relationship with the CIA. VERY DEEP.
Qatar was also the mechanism used by Clinton/Panetta to send Surface to Air missiles into Libya, which ultimately resulted in the death of Ambassador Chris Stephens during a covert operation to retrieve them.
All of these known facts, put great pause on the review of Steve Witkoff, who -amid other issues- appears to be doing an exceptional job on the Ukraine-Russia conflict. We should watch this carefully with eyes wide open.

2) Qatar and Witkoff:
“Witkoff bought the hotel in 2013 for $654 million with a plan to convert the bulk of the building’s 600 or so rooms into high-end condos. But by 2016 he and his partners — Harry Macklowe, Howard Lorber’s New Valley and Highgate Holdings — had decided the Billionaires’ Row market had become oversaturated.
They put the conversion on hold.
A few months later, Chinese developer Greenland Group bought a 41 percent stake in the project from Kuwait Strategic Investors. The project seemed to be back on track.
But shortly after the deal closed, the Justice Department filed a lawsuit looking to seize the hotel as part of its investigation into the Malaysian businessman Jho Low, who was accused of stealing $4 billion from a development fund in his home country.

Witkoff-led group bought property decade ago eyeing condo conversion” [Aug 28, 2023]
“The building’s status was in limbo for almost six years due to the owners’ unsuccessful $1bn auction attempt in 2017.”
“Financier Jho Low, also known as Low Taek Jho, was a member of the group that owned the hotel.
In 2022, Low was convicted in the US of corruption charges related to embezzling billions of dollars from the Malaysian investment fund.
The US Justice Department had at first wanted to confiscate the hotel as part of its probe against Low.
But the department later reached a deal with the owners, led by developer Steven Witkoff, for the divestment of the property instead. It holds Low’s portion of the proceeds in escrow.
The building’s status was in limbo for almost six years due to the owners’ unsuccessful $1bn auction attempt in 2017.
According to a Bloomberg report, real estate and management company Witkoff Group and the Qatar Investment Authority have not responded to requests for comment regarding the sale, which was first reported by PinusCo.”

3) President Trump: “The nation of Qatar has historically been a funder of terrorism at a very high level”.
President Trump: “I decided, along with secretary of state Rex Tillerson, our great generals and military people, the time had come to call on Qatar to end its funding, they have to end that funding and its extremist ideology.”
President Trump said he helped those countries make the decision to break off relations with Qatar during his trip to Saudi Arabia [last month]. “Nations came together and spoke to me about confronting Qatar over its behaviors,” he said.

4) Qatar is sanctioned: On June 5, 2017, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Egypt, and Bahrain fired the first shot of the Gulf Crisis (2017-21). Self-proclaimed as the ‘Anti-Terror Quartet,’ they announced the severance of diplomatic ties with Qatar, accusing it of sponsoring terrorism across the Middle East and North Africa
In this context, the Quartet subjected the removal of sanctions to compliance with a list of demands, urging Qatar to hand over to them individuals they designated as terrorists, shut down Al Jazeera, and agree to regular external audits on state finances, among other things.
Rex Tillerson in July 2017 attempts to undo these sanctions, aligned with Defense Secretary James Mattis have emphasized the importance of the US partnership with Qatar despite President Trump’s earlier clear statements praising the move by Gulf nations to sever diplomatic relations with Qatar.

7) We accept that Joe Biden was not cognitively organizing the events that surrounded his administration.
The public now understand the relationship between the CIA/USAID.
2022:
8) Notice how in this outline, all roads -YET AGAIN- lead to Langley, even when those roads are traveled by the "good guys," or what Q-adherents would call "white hats" (there are none).
Qatar is a major CIA partner. This is why Qatar and USAID essentially fund identical enterprises within the USA, including Brookings Institute.
Americans wonder why President Vladimir Putin doesn't trust any U.S. administration.
Factually, when it comes to money intersecting USA politics, Putin knows exactly what outcomes are likely.
From the CIA perspective: Democrats want money to achieve power. Republicans want power to achieve money.
This is how the CIA operates domestically to manipulate both wings of the UniParty apparatus so they can remain elevated.
The Russian Federation does not view America or Americans as their enemy. The Russian Federation views the CIA as their enemy. There is a big difference.
