 Exiled Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal said Friday there could not be a solution to the Palestinian issue without dialogue between Hamas and the West Bank-based government loyal to Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. Abbas and his allies "will find out that they are pursuing nothing but a mirage," Mashaal told Hamas radio. "They will find out that there can be no solution without dialogue." He accused Israel and the US of taking advantage of the Palestinian rift to try to wrest concessions from the Palestinians. |
