Dwaik has declared that the Jerusalem Post info is inaccurate. He was alluding to the PLO charter not the Hamas Charter. He was saying to Mr Abrahams that, despite the PLO revoking its charter, the Palestinians found no interlocutor on the israeli side.
He did not say Hamas will recognize Israel.
After this misunderstanding which has distorted his words, he expressed his regret for the "inaccuracy with which the Israeli media" reproduce his statements since his release from jail.

The European Community is much more likely to engage in discussions with Hamas…. hopefully leading to a change in America’s policies as well.
It should be an interesting few weeks to come, watching how this develops…. Let us hope for the best and and the establishment of a Just and Lasting Peace in Israel/Palestine, and the establishment of a Palestinian State!

Dwaik is the elected speaker of the Palestinian Legislative Council. He was released a few months ago after spending nearly three years in an Israeli prison.

Hamas is prepared to abandon their charter calling for the destruction of Israel. Israel has been actively involved in the destruction of Palestine since 1948, are they prepared to abandon this ‘unwritten’ charter of theirs?
It is the intention of Hamas to gain recognition in the world community. This seems very unlikely to happen in the States with AIPAC standing guard and Obama’s zionist cabinet dancing to their every tune.
