I don't know, who was that that walked out of last UN meeting. Sometimes one gets tired of toying around with all these people talking crap and threatning while at the same with outstretched hands. Just think about it how would you react.
Like Powell said they might force the US to make concessions not to their liking.
24 Apr 2003 16:36:30 GMT Hamas warns Palestinian cabinet not to end uprising
By Mariam Karouny
BEIRUT, April 24 (Reuters) - The militant Palestinian movement Hamas warned the new reformist cabinet on Thursday that any attempt to end a Palestinian uprising against Israeli occupation would be met with widespread resistance.
Palestinian President Yasser Arafat and his prime minister-designate Mahmoud Abbas agreed on Wednesday on a new reform cabinet, defusing a power struggle and setting the stage for a new Middle East peace drive.
But senior Hamas official Mohammed Nazzal told Reuters that several Palestinian factions would not accept any attempt to end attacks by militants waging the 30-month-old uprising.
"Any Palestinian government that wants to be a tool in the hands of the Israeli occupation will not be confronted by one faction but by several forces, at the head of them Fatah," Nazzal said, referring to Arafat's Fatah movement.
"Any attempt to stop Palestinian resistance by force means that this Palestinian government has accepted to become a tool in the hands of the occupation and accepted to be in confrontation with the Palestinian people's choice," he added.
A Palestinian suicide bomb attack at an Israeli train station on Thursday that killed a security guard and injured 13 people was claimed by an armed faction of Fatah and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine -- underlining the difficulties Abbas will face in reining in militants.
At least 2,007 Palestinians and 734 Israelis have been killed since the uprising began in September 2000.
The United States and European leaders have welcomed the deal on a new Palestinian cabinet and signalled Washington would unveil a long-awaited peace plan designed to create an independent Palestinian state and lasting security for Israel.
Washington has said it will present the peace "road map" when Palestinians install a government committed to democratic reforms, purging corruption and ending attacks by militants.
The road map prescribes a series of steps leading to a Palestinian state by 2005 in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, territories Israel occupied in the 1967 Middle East war.
Nazzal said he did not believe the road map would lead to a Palestinian state, saying that by 2005 Israel will have built more settlements on Palestinian land.
"No one can deceive us and say there will be a Palestinian state because all the facts indicate that there will not be a Palestinian state," Nazzal said. "It is a bait offered to the (Palestinian) people so they stop their resistance because it has become a security obsession that gives Israelis no sleep."
Hamas is behind dozens of suicide bombings inside Israel and seeks the destruction of the Jewish state, in contrast with the two-state solution the Palestinian Authority publicly backs.
