With Hamas claiming they will recognize Israel, and former Nobel Peace Prize winners (such as Jimmy Carter and Mairead Maguire) and so-called “peace activists” in their corner, even their fellow terrorists are seeing through the lies.
An Executive Committee secretary within the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) accused Hamas of working toward the establishment of a Saudi-styled “Islamic emirate” in Gaza and, eventually, all of Palestine.
Secretary Yasser Abed Rabbo made the comments at a seminar organized by the Cultural Liberation Organization on Saturday in Ramallah, where he gave a lecture on the signing of the now 20-year-old Palestinian Independence document in Algiers.
The Hamas leadership “wants to return to the era of the PLO before Arafat’s rule,” according to the PLO leader, who went on to say that Hamas is willing to replace the national draft agreement with one that would “establish an Islamic emirate.”
“Yet they still won’t promote national issues,” he said.
Another member at the PLO Executive Committee, Abdul-Rahim Malluh, said that there is “a need to restore respect for the Independence document,” something both men said Hamas was unwilling to do.
Malluh noted that the first and last references in the declaration are in regard to the Palestinian people, themselves, which he claimed contained the legitimacy to go through with Fatah’s attempts to hold new elections in 2010, “as a way to resolve the division and solve the problems of Palestine.”
Of course, Fatah’s main issue with an Islamic emirate in all of “palestine” is the fact they promote a secular nationalist agenda.
