Hamdan warns of new settlement plot leaving Jerusalem under Israeli sovereignty
[ 06/09/2009 - 11:19 AM ]
BEIRUT, (PIC)-- Osama Hamdan, the Hamas representative in Lebanon, has warned of a new settlement plot that stipulates retaining Jerusalem under Israeli sovereignty with international supervision allowing access to holy places.
He told a political seminar organized by a Lebanese party a couple of days ago that the resistance team, and not only Hamas, should stand up to such a plot.
Hamdan called on this team not to retreat from declared positions, not to surrender the sacrifices of martyrs and resistance fighters and to re-arrange the resistance lines.
The Hamas leader gave a detailed account of the Palestine question since the UN resolution to partition Palestine, adding that ever since then two sides kept on struggling on which would decide fate of that cause.
He said that one of them called for resistance and the other called for rationale and accepting the fait accompli.

Hamas: The settlement expansion proves Obama's failure to curb Israel
[ 06/09/2009 - 12:20 PM ]
GAZA, (PIC)-- Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said Sunday that Israel’s persistence in the expansion of its settlements proves that US president Barack Obama failed to curb the occupation and lost his credibility regarding the settlement process in the region.
In a press statement to the Palestinian information center (PIC), spokesman Abu Zuhri stressed that the peaceful settlement option is a term that only exists in the minds of those who wager on it, while Israel on the ground is persistent in judaizing the Palestinian lands.
The spokesman also deplored, in another context, the Palestinian Authority’s security apparatuses for turning back Israeli settlers who mistakenly entered West Bank cities, saying that this behavior is the biggest example of the size of the security coordination between the PA and the Israeli occupation.
The Israeli Yediot Ahronot newspaper reported that Benjamin Netanyahu would approve on Sunday during a cabinet meeting a plan to construct hundreds of settlement units in the West Bank.
