If we can not do something as Arabs and I am the /current/ Chairman of the arab Committee about Syrian , so I view that the peace keeping forces should proceed there to provide safe zones for the people, the women and children and for all the Syrians and for sending the necessary food and medicine as well as helping people to defend themselves'', HE Hamad bin Jassim bin Jabor Al Thani told reporters. HE the Qatari Premier and Foreign Minister further said,'' We have offered whatever the Russians and Chinese have asked , but unfortunately we do not succeed ... and I think that the best thing to do is that the international community should meet and abandon the game of politics played by the major powers, which is a game that harm the Syrian people...as per my conviction there is a political game and we will do everything in our power as Arabs to help the Syrians.... and I'm sure that many countries of the free nations will help us in that .. How? This in what we will work on in the coming days, we can't wait any longer since every day passes especially after the recent Security Council resolution .. there is an escalation of killings in Syria ..
