Hamas to al-Qaeda: We haven't quit resistance
None
Hamas spokesperson Ismail Radwan responded to remarks by al-Qaeda No. 2 leader Ayman al-Zawahiri that condemned Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas for threatening to hold early elections saying his group has not given up its commitment to fight Israel.
"A large number of the group's senior leaders are in jail because of Hamas' stance. We haven't quit, we won't quit and will continue to abide by our principles, to raise the banner of resistance and we won't recognize the shameful agreements," he said referring to the Oslo Accords. (Ali Waked)
