    • Why is Hamas Interested in a Temporary Truce with Israel?

      Posted by jerusalemjudy

      In an interview with Al-Jazeera (April 26, 2008), Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal clarified that for Hamas, a tahdiya is "a tactic in conflict management." He added that it "is not unusual for the resistance...to escalate sometimes and to retreat a bit sometimes as the tide does....The tahdiya creates a formulation that will force Israel...to remove the siege...and if it happens it will be a remarkable achievement."

    • Jimmy Carter: Pariah Diplomacy

      Posted by Jeff from Truth Out

      Through more official consultations with these outlawed leaders, it may yet be possible to revive and expedite the stalemated peace talks between Israel and its neighbors. In the Middle East, as in Nepal, the path to peace lies in negotiation, not in isolation.

    Israel-Hamas truce announced

    The religious had always relations with the Hamas. A strong Hamas, a weak OLP {niet anymore: the OLP is now strong again in  cis jordan), or the possibility to reunify again the two side in a democratic process like in Maroco, for exemple. Where is  the interest of Israel ? what are the rules of the game ? War and trouble is never good for Israel.

    Hamas-Fatah to Implicitly Recognize Israel

    I think Hamas loses its base if it retracts this.
