Hamas leader rejects talks with Israel
 GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip The top Hamas leader in the Gaza Strip rejected compromise with Israel in a fiery speech Wednesday, a day after gunmen killed four Israelis in a strong reminder that the Islamic militant group cannot be ignored in any Mideast deal.Hamas has claimed responsibility for Tuesdays shootings, a vivid reminder that the Iranian-backed group may be locked out of the peace negotiations but remains a key player in determining their outcome. In an address to Hamas members, Gaza strongman Today marks the start of direct negotiations between someone who has no right to represent the Palestinian people and the brutal occupier, to provide a cover for Judaizing Jerusalem and stealing the land, Zahar said. I'm rather surprised the Israelis didn't just whack Zahar after the four were killed. Posted by: Steve White 2010-09-02 |
