Hamas won't accept formal truce unless Israel met Palestinian terms
 The Hamas Movement wouldn't honor a formal truce in case Israel didn't meet the Palestinian resistance factions' terms atop of which came the release of all Palestinian captives locked up in the Israeli infamous prisons, said Sami Abu Zuhri, Hamas' media spokesman in the Gaza Strip. "We will go to Cairo and listen to the proposals then we will adopt our position accordingly," he added, commenting on the inter-Palestinian dialogue to be held soon in Cairo.The Hamas' leader warned that the calming down currently observed by the Palestinian resistance groups wouldn't continue in the event the Israeli occupation didn't meet those groups' conditions. In response to the remarks voiced by the PA national security counselor Jibril Rejoub that the Palestinian resistance groups were ready to honor the ceasefire in the green line, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip, Abu Zuhri noted, " Rejoub's utterances are incorrect, as he was only speaking in his name and that of Fatah Movement. He has no right to speak on behalf of all Palestinian factions." Posted by: Fred 2005-03-11 |
