Several recent news articles, including three on the front page of The New York Times, have called attention to the overlap of Mr. Broidy’s political advocacy and his business interests. Stonington Strategies is registered as a foreign agent of Qatar, and the lawsuit says that Qatar pays him $300,000 a month. Mr. Muzin has reportedly courted Jewish leaders and others by offering them trips to Doha, the capital of Qatar. “Starting last year, the State of Qatar, Muzin, and other foreign agents conspired in a strategic campaign to retaliate against and discredit Plaintiff Broidy,” the lawsuit claims. Broidy’s lawsuit is an obvious attempt to draw attention away from his controversial work, and is as flimsy as the promises he reportedly made to his clients.”
