(Xinhua) -- The Hamas-led Palestinian government accused Israel on Wednesday of killing President Yasser Arafat two years ago, renewing calls to open the file of Arafat's mysterious death. The government is determined to "reveal the circumstances that Israel has been trying to hide," the government spokesman Ghazi Hamad said in a written statement faxed to the press on the second anniversary of Arafat's passing. The Hamas administration, which rejects peace deals with Israel, added that Israel killed Arafat in spite of the negotiation track Arafat followed with the Jewish state. "This means Israel does not seek peace as much as it seeks control, war and destruction." Hamad reiterated his government would maintain the Palestinian principles until establishing an independent statehood with Jerusalem as the capital, releasing prisoners and secure the return of Palestinian refugees in Diaspora. He also said Hamas will not recognize Israel. Calls to investigate into Arafat's death were also released by most of Palestinian factions and political groups.
