More than 50 pro-Israel supporters held up placards at the protest co-organised by Sussex Friends of Israel (SFI) and the Israeli Forum Task Force.
Campaigners asked why Qatar had been allowed to host the World Cup in 2022 by Fifa, world football’s governing body, in the wake of allegations of bribery, terrorism funding and human rights abuses against the country.
Lawyer Mark Lewis - who acted for more than 120 victims of the phone hacking scandal - spoke at the event.
