Qatar responds to Peres’s terror-funding charges

After outgoing president Shimon Peres accused Qatar of being the world’s #1 sponsor of terror, the country’s foreign minister denies the charges, and insinuates that Israel is the real terrorist in the region.

“There is absolutely no terror aspect in bringing the Palestinian people’s demands to the international community by Qatar,” says Sheikh Majd bin Abdal Rahman a-Thani, according to Ynet. “Terror is the continued bombing of civilians, of children, and schools. Qatar has no part in this.”
