After LP’s warning, InterContinental cancels Hamas conference. Why did Sheraton host the terror group? | Constantcontact

On Sunday, The Lawfare Project sent a cautionary letter to InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG), advising that the company would risk criminal and civil liability under federal law if it did not cancel a Hamas event, scheduled to take place yesterday at an IHG hotel in Doha, Qatar. IHG subsequently canceled the conference, a decision that Associated Press reporter Fares Akram attributed to fear of U.S. Treasury sanctions.
