Israel: No Basis for Talks with Hamas-Fatah Government
[Ha'aretz] Aluf Benn, Avi Issacharoff, and Shmuel Rosner - PA Chairman Abbas and Hamas Prime Minister Haniyeh have concluded the parameters for establishing a national unity government, but Israel insists that the agreement does not meet the international community's conditions for ending its embargo of the PA. Hamas' spokesman in Gaza, Sami Abu Zuhri, insisted Monday that the organization would never recognize Israel. "If the Palestinian government does not clearly accept the three conditions, we will not hold negotiations with it, nor will we renew the transfer of tax revenues," a senior Israeli Foreign Ministry source said Monday.
