Netanyahu’s son calls Qatari emir ‘modern-day Hitler’
Yair Netanyahu, son of "Israeli" Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, sparked outrage on Monday after likening Qatari Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani and his mother Moza bint Nasser to “the modern-day Hitler and Goebbels.”
The accusation came in a post on X, where he also claimed Qatar is responsible for fueling a global surge in antisemitism.
“Every Jew around the world is in grave danger because of the decades-long vilification of Jews and the Jewish state by Qatar, fueled by the billions of dollars they pour into it,” Yair wrote.
Qatar is the main force behind the unprecedented wave of antisemitism around the world, not seen since the 1930s and 1940s.

His comments arrive amid a stalemate in captive negotiations between “Israel” and Hamas, in which Qatar serves as one of the main mediators alongside Egypt and the United States.
Yair Netanyahu has a history of incendiary social media posts and promoting conspiracy theories, frequently stirring controversy.
His latest attack against Qatar contrasts with the more measured stance taken by the US administration. Just last week, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio defended Qatar’s role in the talks, calling Doha’s involvement “helpful” despite ongoing criticism.
