  "account": "Qatar has dismissed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's claim that the nation is running a campaign to sway public opinion against Israel. The statement was made by Dr. Majed bin Mohammad al-Ansari, an adviser to the Prime Minister and spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, on the X platform. He stated that the allegation made by Netanyahu during his speech at the UN General Assembly is an attempt to divert attention from the actions of Israel in the occupied Palestinian territories and the humanitarian consequences of these actions.\n\nDr. al-Ansari emphasized that if Netanyahu and other extreme Israeli politicians who are now addressing empty halls wish to change the world's perception of Israel, they must first alter their policies, cease their violations, comply with international law, and assume responsibility before the people who elected them, rather than casting blame on others to tarnish Israel's global image.\n\nThe spokesperson argued that the attempt to hold Qatar or others accountable for a global shift in public opinion, as shaped by what people witness firsthand, is no longer convincing and that this persistent attack on Qatar can only be understood as an effort to divert attention from political responsibility for policies and practices on the ground, and to exploit that in domestic political calculations.",
