Qatar’s prime minister offered stinging criticism of Israel and the international community on Tuesday over the ongoing Israeli war on Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, who also serves as Qatar’s foreign minister, said a two-state solution was required to end the conflict and warned that Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack and the Israeli response showed the region could not go back to the way it was before.
“Gaza is not there anymore. I mean, there is nothing over there,” he said, speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. “It’s carpet bombing everywhere.”
He also brought up the ongoing tensions in the West Bank, which has seen Palestinians attacking Israelis and IDF Forces, and urged for an end to “Palestinian divisions”. Hamas, he says, is part of the Palestinian political system, and “the Palestinians are the only ones who have a choice to have them as part of a resolution or not.”
“We cannot have a two-state solution without having a government and politicians in Israel who believe in coexisting together side by side peacefully and we cannot have all this ongoing without ending this war,” he said.
He warned that a military confrontation in the Mideast waterways “will not contain” the attacks by Yemen’s Houthi rebels who on Monday fired a missile, striking a U.S.-owned ship just off the coast of Yemen in the Gulf of Aden.
“What we have right now in the region is a recipe of escalation everywhere,” Sheikh Mohammed added.

What amazing chutzpa.. Sorry Mr. Muhamed for the loss of your bad investment.
The respected Prime Monster of Qatar left out a minor detail.
He forgot to mention that the “carpet bombing” is because there are terrorists all over Gaza. If there wouldn’t be terrorists within the broader civilian areas, in schools, mosques, hospitals and everywhere else, Gaza wouldn’t look the way it does.
Sorry, but you don’t have my sympathy!
Great. Perfect. Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani should establish the so-called Palestinian state in Qatar. All their leaders live there anyway . There will be 2 states. One in Israel for the Jews and one in Qatar for the so-called Palestinians.
Hey genius, they fired 50 rockets this morning. I guess Hamas used the last standing house for cover?
The PM of Qatar is not only a well known רשע but also a big לץ as we see here his clowny approach to the events. To play out so innocent he must be so fake, which matches with his רשעות. We do not forget, he is the main supporter of Hamas, hiding under the veil of helping poor Gaza citizens. He has a lot of blood on his hands.
Sure Mr. Quatar. Try something similar on any other country in the world, see the response. You payrolled Hamas, you shelter their “leaders”, you get to see the results. Don’t like them? Should’ve thought about that on October 6th.
When will the Arabs and Europeans realise that the Palestinians are a money pit?
