The death cult is going through the motions of announcing a government…
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - Hamas said Saturday it has formed a government two weeks before a deadline but apparently without coalition partners that might have softened the Islamic militant group’s image.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who has to approve the Cabinet lineup before it goes to parliament, is set to meet with the group’s leaders in Gaza on Sunday. The meeting initially was set for Saturday.
Initially, Abbas aides said the Palestinian leader considered the Hamas platform too vague and would ask that it be rewritten, but they backtracked Saturday.
…even though, in reality, the whole “government” thing is just a facade for their real purpose: Hamas leader puts resisting Israel before politics.
DAMASCUS (Reuters) - Running the Palestinian Authority will not deflect Hamas from its overriding goal of pursuing a long-term struggle with Israel, the leader-in-exile of the militant Islamist movement said in Damascus.
“Being in power is only a means to an end for Hamas,” Khaled Meshaal told a memorial gathering for a deceased Palestinian politician on Thursday night. “Power is not our ultimate goal.
“If it becomes one, let power go to hell. It will not hold us back from our targets which we hold dear,” he said. …
“We and the Zionists have a date with destiny. If they want a fight, we are ready for it. If they want a war, we are the sons of war. If they want a struggle, we are for it to the end,” the Damascus-based leader Meshaal declared.
“We have more stamina than Israel and we will defeat it, God willing,” he said.
