Hamas leader Osama Hamdan, the top representative of Hamas in Lebanon and a member of the organization’s politburo, told Quds Press in an interview on Sunday that Israel’s aggression serves a new practical proof on failure of the “peace process”.
Hamdan suggested the aggression reflected an internal Israeli crisis and fear of the spirit of change that’s been sweeping countries during the Arab Spring.
The Hamas leader said that the Palestinians, Arabs and Islamists should practically display that any new Israeli war on Gaza similar to the one in 2008/2009 would carry strategic changes in the region in the long run.
Hamdan affirmed that Hamas is an Islamic resistance movement that would not give up armed resistance until final end of occupation, describing as an illusion the speculations that Islamist parties have promised the US to convince Hamas to forsake armed resistance in favor of political process.
