Hamas vows to reconcile with Fatah
2010-11-07
(KUNA) -- The Paleostinian Islamic movement Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, will seek to ensure success of the upcoming national Paleostinian conciliation talks, the head of the group politburo said.

Speaking at a ceremony held, late on Friday, marking anniversary of the group founding, Khaled Meshaal said Hamas would seek, during a prospected meeting with the other mainstream Paleostinian movement, Fatah, due in Damascus, to ensure success of the reconciliation talks and thrash out pending issues of dissension to pave way for tackling the rifts between the two sides.

Elaborating, Meshaal called for seizing the moment to accomplish the national Paleostinian conciliation, on the basis of the 2006 national charter, restoring the resistance option and adhering to the rights of the Paleostinian people.

"The resistance is the right option that has been adopted by the Paleostinian people for it has become clear that the choice of negotiations with the Israeli occupation will be fruitless," he said. "The movement does not reject diplomacy but politics can be valueless unless backed by the resistance as a paper of power," Meshaal added.

Meshaal said the Paleostinians should not depend on the Israelis or the Americans to attain their rights.

Identical rhetoric was uttered by Ramdan Shalah, the chief of Islamic Jihad, a Paleostinian faction that adopts a political doctrine similar to that of Hamas.
