The Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamín Netanyahu, has urged Catar, one of the countries involved in indirect negotiations with the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), to “leave double game” in regard to the hostages retained by the Palestinian militias in the Gaza Strip.
“The time has come for Qatar to leave double game with their double conversations”Netanyahu said in a statement published in his official account in X. “Israel is fighting a fair war with fair means. Then the atrocities of October 7, Prime Minister Netanyahu defined the war of redemption as a war between civilization and barbarism,” he argued.
That is why he urges to taste “Decide if you are on the side of civilization or if you are on the side of Hamas’s barbarism”. “Israel will win this fair war with fair means,” he concluded.
Israeli sources have recently leaked to the Israeli press that Catar is pressing Hamas to not accept the proposal raised by Egypt alleging that it could obtain better conditions. However, Catar has denied these information.
-Qatar, “honest and reliable” mediator
The Qatari authorities, on the other handhave rejected these “incendiary” statements claiming that “they lack the minimum levels of political and moral responsibility”, an attitude that contrasts with the role of “honest and reliable mediator” of Qatar in the conflict between Israel and Hamas.
“Presenting the continuous aggression against Gaza as a defense of ‘civilization’ brings to the mind the rhetoric of regimes throughout history that have used false slogans to justify their crimes against innocent civilians,” said the spokesman for the Qatari Foreign Ministry, Mayed Al Ansari, in a publication in his account in the social network X.
Al Ansari has extolled the “mediation efforts” of his government, today “unjustly criticized and attacked”, and has reiterated his support for “oppressed peoples”, the rights of the civilian population “regardless of their origins” and international law, “without partiality or selectivity.”
In this way, the state of Qatar has denounced the “overwhelming blockade” of Israeli forces In the Gaza Strip and has reaffirmed “its firm conviction that true peace can only be achieved through a fair and broad solution based on international legitimacy resolutions, ending the occupation and guaranteeing the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people.”
