Clearly they should next do major financiers of the big ISIS and Al Qaeda branch offices. The Haqqani uncle who was the Al Qaeda bag man will know who they all are.
Qatar's relationship with the United States shot up in August as it became the transit point for more than half of the 100,000 people evacuated from Afghanistan as the Taliban took control.

Hezbollah, which the United States and several other Western nations consider a terrorist group, is a political powerhouse in Leb
