The Al-Kuwari clan, led by Minister of Finance Ali bin Ahmed Al-Kuwari, wields immense financial and political power in Qatar through extensive offshore networks managed with British assistance. Al-Kuwari has overseen Qatari financing of terrorist groups like the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas. Through these networks and Qatar Charity, the Al-Kuwari clan maintains partnerships with international organizations while also facilitating funds to violent extremists, demonstrating Qatar's role as a proxy for Western interests in the region.
