Hamas leaders have firm views on the attempt by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to get the United Nations to recognize a Palestinian state based on the pre-1967 borders, before Israel captured the West Bank from Jordan.

"Just nonsense," says Mahmoud al-Zahar, a prominent Hamas member in Gaza. "A Palestinian state means land, people and authority. And now, what is the border of Israel? Israel has had many borders in the last 30, 40 years. What border are we going to speak about?'"

The approach to the UN, he says, is a 'political scam.' He is equally unequivocal on the so-called two-state solution, which aims at an Israeli state and a Palestinian state existing side by side.

"We are not going to recognize Israel. That is very simple. And we are not going to accept Israel as the owner of one square centimeter because it is a fabricated state."

"On what moral basis was Israel established? On the right of return (of the Jews) after 4,000 years? It's just imagination."

He says accepting Israel's right to exist would "cost 10 million Palestinians their right to Palestine. Who can pay that price? Who will go to the refugee camps and tell the people you have no right on Palestine?"

During a recent debate before the UNSC, after the Palestinian Arab representative demanded recognition of a Palestinian state, Ron Prosor, Israel's ambassador to the UN asked him: "On behalf of whom will you present a resolution in September? Mr. Abbas or Hamas?" Clearly, this is a question worth asking.
 
Good question.

Abbas left the government in June of 2007. What authority does he have to do anything?

Indeed, the whole idea of palistan is, of course, one big international scam. If anyone, inquisitive enough, asks mr. Obama about his plans of making that state viable, he won't get past his teleporter drivel, because neither that prolific driveler, nor his so-called administration, nor, in fact, anyone among the palistaniacal cheerleaders in power knows how to make it viable. That is why they will want, demand actually, citing some dumbass humanitarian causes, Israel takes care of their palisturd "viablty". So, instead of experimenting on live palistanians, like cursing them with a state of their own, the international community should be busying itself with their humanitarian relocation en masse. Very noble and very humanitarian, indeed.
