Hamas won't recognise Israeli-Palestinian peace deals: Haniya |
2006-09-17 |
Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniya said Saturday that his ruling Hamas group won't formally recognise Israeli-Palestinian peace agreements, but will "work with" them. Haniya spoke a day after the EU held off on resuming direct aid to the Palestinian Authority. An emerging coalition government of Hamas and moderate Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah movement must first commit to the Middle East peacess process, EU leaders said Friday. The new government, which is to be formed in coming weeks, would work for the establishment of a Palestinian state alongside Israel - an implicit recognition of Israel by Hamas. However, the US has signaled that this falls short of the international community's demands that the Islamic militant Hamas explicitly recognise Israel and accept existing peace agreements. Haniya suggested Saturday that Hamas would go no further than it already has. |

#3 Abbas to Haniyah: "Your idea is stupid. He won't fall for it." Haniyah to Abbas: "Hey, the EU believes all kinds of stupid stuff, why not give it a try on this guy, too?" Abbas to Haniyah: "Fine! Be my guest! Give it a try." Haniyah to Bush: "Hey, how about we 'work with them'?" Bush to Haniyah after pregnant pause: "So, how's that cashless economy experiment thingy working out?" Abbas to Haniyah: "Told you. Dork." Haniya to Abbas: "Are you growing a moustache or do you need to trim your nose hairs again?" |
