AMMAN — Jordan Press Association President Tareq Momani on Monday denounced the terrorist attack that targeted French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo.

Momani said the terrorist attack has no relation to Islam and its teachings of moderation.

Attempts to link the crime with Islam seek to distort the religion which rejects all forms of terrorism, he added and they also seek to shift attention away from real terrorism exercised on a daily basis against the Palestinian people.
