Qatar’s Petro Dollars Spent to Recruit, Train Terrorists in Lebanon to Join War on Syria

TEHRAN (FNA)- Reports from Lebanon said that the Qatari government has provided huge financial backup for Salafi leaders and Syrian dissidents to help them recruit and train terrorists in Lebanon for the war on President Bashar al-Assad’s government.

According to Syria’s al-Baath newspaper, Qatar’s measure has created tumult in Lebanon, specially after Doha voiced support for Hassan Qaterchi, an Islamist sheikh, who soon turned from the head of an unknown religious group into the chairman of Muslim scholars of Lebanon, thanks to the Qatari government’s financial and media supports.

Qatar’s support for extremist groups and religious figures opposing the Syrian government and the resistance in Lebanon is not limited to a specific task to group as Doha also provides financial support for extremist Salafi groups in Lebanon to stir more tension and insecurity in Syria.

Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011 with organized attacks by well-armed gangs against Syrian police forces and border guards being reported across the country.

Hundreds of people, including members of the security forces, have been killed, when some protest rallies turned into armed clashes. The government blames outlaws, saboteurs, and armed terrorist groups for the deaths, stressing that the unrest is being orchestrated from abroad.

Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey along with the US, have been supporting terrorists and rebel groups in Syria and have practically brought a UN peace initiative into failure to bring President Assad’s government into collapse.

Earlier this month, Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim bin Jabr al-Thani admitted that his country is interfering in Syria’s internal affairs by supporting terrorists and sending weapons to them.

“Declaring a no-fly-zone and providing safe passages for assistance (to terrorists in Syria) is amongst the most important priorities of Qatar,” al-Thani told the CNN.

He also called on the international community to help armed rebels in Syria, adding that such a move doesn’t need the permission of the UN Security Council.

Qatari and Saudi rulers want an overthrow of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, a staunch ally of Iran, and they have taken every measure to this end.

In his latest remarks against Syria, the Emir of Qatar called on the Arab nations to form a political and military coalition to intervene in Syria, posing a direct challenge to UN efforts to resolve the conflict through negotiations.

Report: Little Syrian Girls Sold to Saudi, Qatari Sheikhs

TEHRAN (FNA)- News reports from Syria warned of increasing danger against Syrian women and girls, saying that little girls who lived in refugee camps near the borders with Jordan are taken to Jordan by human traffickers and then sold to Saudi and Qatari sheikhs.

Based on the reports released by Arab Times news website, the traffickers select their victims from the little girls residing in Syria’s bordering areas and then ferry them across the border with Jordan and sell them to Saudi and Qatari sheikhs.

According to Jordan’s marriage registration office, during the first half of the current year 189 official marriages and 270 unofficial marriages with the Syrian girls have been registered. A number of 114 non-Jordanian nationals have married these Syrian girls during the period.
