Egyptian Journalist Ibrahim Eissa: Qatar Plays a 'Double Agent' Role as Does Al Jazeera TV; Qatar Foments Every Sectarian Conflict and Political Chaos in the Arab World
Egyptian journalist Ibrahim Eissa blasted Al-Jazeera for its 'extreme and shameless unprofessionalism' in a June 24, 2025 video posted on his YouTube channel, criticizing the network for failing to report on Iran's attack against the Al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar while it was happening, despite the base being near Al-Jazeera's headquarters in Doha.
Eissa said that Al-Jazeera plays the same role as Qatar itself - that of a double agent. He accused Qatar of being behind every sectarian conflict, civil war, terrorist operation, or episode of political chaos in the Arab world. He stated that Qatar hosts and bankrolls political Islam and the Muslim Brotherhood, while simultaneously supporting Iran. Eissa noted that both Iran and Israel consider Qatar a friend, while the U.S. sees it not only as a friend but as an ally. He added that Qatar funds both Sunni terrorist groups in Syria and Shiite extremist groups, and it is actively building ties with Hizbullah.
