Hamas charter specifically mandates the murders of Jews in what it believes is the Divine will of Allah---Violence and Terrorism Hamas considers to be Resistance. On May 13, 2005 Sheik Ibrahim Mudeiris, told his Muslim brothers in his message, "...one day Islam will rule America, Britain and the entire world...and wipe out the Jews...the stones and trees will want the Muslims to finish off every Jew."
Dr. Ismail Radwan in an interview with the Hamas controlled newspaper Al-Risalah in April said, "We will liberate Palestine all of Palestine...Palestine will not be liberated by negotiations, committees and decisions...it will only be liberated by the rifle and the al-Kassam rocket. Therefore prepare yourself."
Hamas has called on the United Nations to rescind the 1947 partition plan on the 60th anniversary of the vote saying, "...Palestine is Arab Islamic land, from the river to the sea, including Jerusalem...there is no room for the Jews." Haaretz.com 29 Nov. 2007
One must learn a lesson from history---today Hamas rejected speculation about an unconditional cease fire with Israel. President Shimon Peres and Cabinet Minister Benjamin Ben-Eliezer said, the daily rocket attacks fired by militants in Gaza onto Israeli cities would have to stop before negotiations with Hamas would be possible.
While Abbas promised to negotiate a peace treaty by the end of 2008 following the Annapolis Conference while in the United States, he has been saying just the opposite on Palestinian Authority television.
