GAZA, (PIC)-- Salah Al-Bardawil, the spokesman for Hamas parliamentary bloc, said Sunday that all the ideas suggested by the independent reconciliation committee on the resumption of the national dialog between the Palestinian rivals are still ambiguous.

“So far the mechanisms of the committee are not clear yet, and it has not answered the question about the situation if Hamas and Fatah failed to reach a consensus, so the ideas of this committee are still vague,” Bardawil underlined.

“We are committed to the success of reconciliation and we believe that this success comes from within the reconciliation itself, where it should have clear points and not hidden failure factors,” he added.

For his part, senior Hamas official Ismail Radwan reaffirmed his Movement’s keenness on restoring national unity and maintaining the Palestinian constants and the option of resistance.

In a press statement, Radwan said that Hamas wants the national unity in order to strengthen the internal front in the face of the Israeli occupation and its Judaization policies in occupied Jerusalem and to alleviate the suffering of the Palestinian people.

In another context, the Movement of Hamas accused the Palestinian Authority (PA) and Fatah faction of escalating political arrest campaigns against its cadres to prevent any attempt to commemorate the 22nd anniversary of its inception.

In a statement, Hamas deplored the silence of Arab parties, Palestinian factions and human rights organizations towards the PA violations committed against it in the West Bank.

Hamas underscored that the crimes of the PA and Fatah against it belie Mahmoud Abbas’s alleged willingness for the reconciliation and confirms his persistence in eliminating its cadres in the West Bank in order to serve his own partisan interests.
