“The occupation army is only capable of destroying buildings and killing children while standing helpless against the resistance. There has been some backtracking from the Israelis in the negotiations, but we see that it is not sufficient and does not reflect seriousness in reaching a deal.
The American position is characterized by hypocrisy, saying one thing publicly and doing the opposite during the negotiation process. There is an agreement between Israel and the U.S. administration regarding settling the Palestinian issue, with disagreement only on the methods.
We have flexibility in negotiations, but we do not and will not accept surrender. We have presented specific criteria for the prisoners we seek to release, though we have not negotiated on names yet.
Israel deliberately targeted vehicles of the “Central Kitchen” organization in order to intimidate relief workers.
We welcome those who come to Gaza to participate in the liberation process and not to be a shadow of the occupation. Within the Palestinian Authority are employees who sympathize with the resistance. We do not want to turn this into an internal civil battle.
It is necessary to converge on a Palestinian national project of resistance aimed at liberation and establishing an independent state. We will support any government whose reference is the Palestinian factions, regardless of our participation in it.”
