The prime minister of Qatar, which has acted as a mediator in ceasefire negotiations between Israel and Hamas, suggested on Wednesday that the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh could jeopardise efforts to secure a truce in Gaza, Reuters has reported.

“Political assassinations and continued targeting of civilians in Gaza while talks continue leads us to ask, how can mediation succeed when one party assassinates the negotiator on the other side?” wrote Sheikh Mohammed Bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani on X. “Peace needs serious partners and a global stance against the disregard for human life.”

      Extremism is a cancer. Until the extremists are maligned I can’t see anything meaningful happening. Fortunately there are some signs that people are sick of the status quo

    “Peace needs serious partners and a global stance against the disregard for human life.”

    Pretty rich coming from Qatar with all their slave workers, but yes, we need a global stance against the disregard for human life in this world.

    So does this mean Netanyahu can cancel the war with Lebanon? He got what he wanted, no imminent peace.
