Naftali Bennett Vows to Declare Qatar an Enemy State in Next Israeli Government
Naftali Bennett, chairman of the "Together" party, sharply criticized Qatar during a speech at the INSS National Security Conference on Monday. He declared that in the next Israeli government, he would officially designate Qatar as an enemy state. Bennett accused Qatar of being an "violent antisemitic cancer" that spreads its influence to the West and even into the Israeli Prime Minister's office with the goal of destroying Israel.
He further claimed that Qatar has established a global influence operation aimed at Israel's destruction. Bennett argued that if a commission of inquiry were formed regarding the events of October 7, one of its primary conclusions would be that Qatar is an enemy state. His remarks reflect heightened tensions and a hardening stance toward Qatar within certain Israeli political circles.
