Hamas Covenant: “There is no solution for the Palestinian question except through Jihad. Initiatives, proposals and international conferences are all a waste of time and vain endeavors.” (1988)
Our petulant man/child in Washington has perhaps forgotten the Palistinian position on negotiations for a two state solution.
Hamas rejects negotiations outright and Fatah wants to eliminate Israel though the death of a thousand cuts at the negotiating table.
Choose your poison.
