According to Syrian opposition circles in Cairo, Hamad bin Jassem, in a meeting with members of the Syrian National Council in the Egyptian capital, presented an analysis stressing that Hamas ended as the movement of armed resistance. Hamas exit from Damascus, which has become confirmed will put an end to hamas as a resistance movement. The Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt will not be able to protect Hamas as an armed resistance movement because of the Camp David and Egyptian army presence and the large economic vulnerability in Egypt as well as the Egyptian society is not psychological ready for going to war on the border with Palestine, moreover the Jordan brothers can't embrace Hamas because Jordan cannot bear this burden.

HAMAS DENIED HAMAD STATEMENTS AND CONFIRMED THAT ITS STILL A RESISTANCE MOVEMENT.

Erdogan Meets Haniya, Backs Palestinian Reconciliation Efforts

"Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan held talks on Sunday with Gaza's Hamas prime minister Ismail Haniya and voiced his support for Palestinian reconciliation efforts, media reports said.
Haniya is in Istanbul as part of his first official regional tour since his Islamist movement seized power in the Palestinian enclave in 2007, the Anatolia news agency reported."

Haniya's trip follows a visit to Turkey in November by Abbas, who angered Israel when he met a woman freed under a prisoner deal who had been sentenced to life for luring an Israeli teenager to his death through an Internet chat room.

Erdogan's government insists that peace cannot be achieved in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict if Hamas is excluded from the process.

The Turkish premier has rejected the "terrorist" label for Hamas, defending the Islamist group as "resistance fighters who are struggling to defend their land".

Meanwhile, Israeli and Palestinian negotiators have agreed to hold in Jordan their first meeting in more than a year without conditions (Freezing settlements)

A spokesman for the ministry stated on Sunday that Jordan's foreign minister Naser Judeh would host a meeting in Amman attended by envoys of the international quartet on the middle east between the Palestinians and Israelis, according to Petra news agency.

Another meeting would be held separately without the quartet envoys between the Palestinians and Israelis in Amman based on the outcome of earlier meetings, Petra quoted the spokesman as saying.

But Abbas, who has consistently rejected violence and promoted peaceful protest, said he saw little chance of sucess. "If nothing happens, then all options are open to us, and of course there are people who say there will be a third intifada, but I say that is unlikely and I do not accept it," he said.
