Hamas PM slams US 'new Middle East'
 Palestinian prime minister Ismail Haniya yesterday said the US view of a new Middle East was one that began with "destroying Lebanon" and with killing the maximum number of Palestinians. "In the name of the government, we condemn the American positions- giving the green light to the occupation to continue its aggressions," Haniya told the Hamas-led cabinet, according to an official statement released to journalists. "We ask the American administration to stop its blind support for the occupation and not allow the continued killing of children, women and old people by American weapons on Palestinian and Lebanese lands. It seems that from the American point of view, the new Middle East starts by destroying Lebanon, by killing the maximum number of our Palestinian people and by bringing down the resistance," he said.Posted by: Fred 2006-07-27 |
