| Hamas Says Does Not Plan to Quit Syria |
| 2012-01-29 |
| [An Nahar] The Paleostinian Islamist movement Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, said on Saturday it does not plan to move its headquarters out of unrest-hit Syria. "There is no change, and Hamas has not taken any decision to leave Syria, and we are still there," front man Fawzi Barhum told Agence La Belle France Presse. He said the constant travels to Arab states of the movement's Damascus ...Home to a staggering array of terrorist organizations... -based chief Khaled Meshaal and other officials were aimed at consolidating Arab support for the Paleostinian cause and inter-Paleostinian reconciliation. On Sunday, Meshaal is to make his first visit to Amman since he was expelled from the kingdom in 1999. Hamas leaders will "keep Syria as their base even if they are obliged to stay away from the country a little more than before," said a Paleostinian official in Gazoo City, on condition of anonymity. "Hamas will not close its offices in Damascus and will not leave the country," he said, although "for reasons of security some leaders may feel obliged at times to leave the country." Syria, a firm supporter of the Islamist movement, has been hit by more than 10 months of deadly anti-regime protests. |
