Qatar to take part in military operation against Libya

Qatari Premier and Minister of Foreign Affairs Shaikh Hamad bin Jassim bin Jabr Al Thani said Qatar would take part in the military operation being carried out against Libya. He also added in an interview with Al Jazeera following Paris summit yesterday that the aim of the Qatari decision is to stop mass killing of citizens in Libya.

"Qatar will take part in the military operation out of belief in the need for Arab states to contribute for the situation has become unbearable in Libya," he said describing the situation as a declared war and urging to stop it very quickly.

"Qatar's stance has been obvious from the start and is based on rejection of any harm to the Libyan people and stopping bloodbath in Libya," he added.

The Qatari Prime Minister asserted that the Arab League had not demanded the West to intervene in Libya but demanded the United Nations to impose a no-fly zone to protect civilians.

Leave it to Libyans they should solve it. Attack by NATO, US and western countries on a sovereign country has no valid legal basis.

Wrong. Read the UN Resolution and International Law and stop displaying your prejudice and ignorance.

how is the country being in civil war support peace and stability?

If the west and "christian" powers wanted blood they could just destroy the entire middle east.

how is arming rebels and dropping bombs supporting stability.

find a shade of grey between your dull black and white world.

the west with their gung ho interventionism have isolated THE MAJORITY OF THE WORLD, they never sought to seek a consensus, not were there any diplomatic efforts, every action was to promote deaths of libyans, in one way or another.

we are only seeing civilians die in Libya as for military actions why west always seek military solution through the UN resolution why not send a political mission to sort things out there. Shame on west as their misadventures have always destabilized the region instead of stabilizing it.

the operation is so the libyan goverment cant bomb its citizens how is that a bad thing , which is ILLEGAL this mission does not destabilize anything civil war does though.

Has anyone taken into consideration that if this guy gets into benghazi he will slaughter the population?

Another invasion by the Wall Street regime. Some Iraqi traitor slaves are encouraging this. They're no better than the Jews who sold other Jews to the Nazis and Chinese Japanese collaborators. No wonder then that Israel has continuously dominated the arabs and bombed them back to the stone age despite numerical weakness. Arabs are so willing to become slaves to others, they'll accept chains without question.

Are you calling me an "Iraqi traitor slave?" Chinese person?

It is surprising how initially it was meant to be a no fly zone but now they are effectively providing air support to Rebel's which they should not have done.In any case the double standards of international community have no limits.Israelis attack Palestinians people with Figher Jets and Tanks but then US vetoes every resolution against Israel in UN where as now Gaddafi is attacking Libyans with Figher Jets and Tanks the whole community is there to bomb the heck out of Libya but Ghaddafi was not a friend of Pakistan so i think its not bad for us.
