Hamas: Bush won't dictate to us
Group spokesman tells Ynet Palestinians back Hamas positions on resistance to occupation, says group does not accept dictates from America Ali Waked
United State President George W. Bush's insistence on disarming Hamas constitutes a "blatant interference in Palestinian affairs," Hamas spokesman Sheikh Yasser Mansour told Ynet in an interview Thursday morning.
"We completely reject and do not accept Bush's remarks regarding disarming us," Mansour said. "Nobody can force us to disarm."
Turning his attention to what is shaping up as an impressive Hamas election victory, the group spokesman said "this great triumph shows the Palestinian people very much support Hamas' diplomatic and politic plan."
"The nation supports our positions on all maters related to Palestinian resistance to the occupation and in all matters related to the diplomatic way we must follow," Mansour said, adding Palestinians also support the need to undertake serious changes in the day-to-day lives of residents.
"The nation chose the leadership and party that it believes can carry out that change," he said.
If you indeed won, it is unlikely you will remain out of government
"The matter of our participation in the government has not yet been decided, but we'll take a decision that is commensurate with the results and the desire to do everything to serve the Palestinian people in the best way possible."
Will we see Hamas Minister Yasser Mansour sitting with an Israeli counterpart tomorrow?
Mansour laughed and responded elegantly, while avoiding the issue of Hamas' calls for Israel's destruction: "It's too early to say, but Hamas will do everything to serve the Palestinian people and improve its condition. We'll discuss this issue just like all other issues, and at the end of the process the decision to be taken will be the one that serves the Palestinian people.
Will you disarm, as is expected of a governing party and as President Bush demanded tonight?
"The question of arms is related to the occupation and we do not accept dictates from Bush or from anyone else. The arms, like everything else, are at the service of the Palestinian people and we won't give in to this blatant interference from Bush, whose remarks are not new, and were always against the Palestinians and their interests."
Back
Hmmmm.
D'ya think Israel might just rid the world of scum from Iran and the Palestinians at the same time?
Seal the cockroaches off and if they try to break out crush them.
Carter's there, he'll get them to place nice and behave...
Nah....dictating to you is too much trouble.
He'll just bomb your a$$ if you get out of line.
Presidential news conference, 10:15 est
This could get interesting
...."Bush won't dictate to us"....No, we'll just leave that to the democrats here in the U.S. to do that...
Hey George! How's that Roadmap For Peace thingy workin out for ya? Maybe if you throw some more hard earned American tax money down that black hole...........
Maybe now we will stop hearing about how most Palestinians are "peace-loving".

I beleive them.
Yep, all we have to do is stop with the moolah and watch the barbarism begin...Israel better hurry up with that fence....don't want them caught up in the fracas.
Bush made the elections possible but the wrong party won. It quite possible the news conference will lay out a plan but I see this as positive. The problem all along was dealing with a party with two faces. Now its clear who we are dealing with and Bush can handle it.
Well, apparently, there's already clashes between Fatah and Hamas...Palesitinan Civil War anyone? Israel might find the securty it wants...because the Palis will be too busy blowing each other up!
"Mansour said. "Nobody can force us to disarm."
THEY WILL BE DISARMED IF ISRAEL KICKS THEIR BUTTS.
When the Hamas does nothing more than
continue to kill people, the man on
the street will realize they've made
a mistake. Then the real blood bath
will begin and Palestinians will
look for help from outside.
Hell Bush won't even talk to you.
