Middle East: Hamas leader says war did not start on 7/10, Israel responsible

Rome, 27 November (LaPresse) – “Netanyahu has repeatedly stated that he will not accept a Palestinian state west of the Jordan River. Israel’s current extremist government considers the West Bank to be Judea and Samaria, the heart of Israel. It is the Israeli government that is preventing the two-state solution. We, as the Palestinian people, have the right to a state with Jerusalem as its capital.‘ This was stated in an exclusive interview with “Cinque Minuti” by Ali Baraka, one of the current leaders of Hamas. Regarding US President Donald Trump, ’it is not a matter of trust. We know that the only one who can influence the Israeli government is the American administration, and today the American administration is Trump.‘ Ali Baraka, one of the current leaders of Hamas, said this in an exclusive interview with “Cinque Minuti”. ’Netanyahu accepted the agreement because there was American pressure,” he added. “There are 70,000 Palestinians martyred in this war, most of them women and children killed by the Israeli army supported by the US administration. The war with Israel did not start on 7 October; the occupation has existed since 1948 and then restarted in 1967. In the West Bank and Gaza, the killings have never stopped, the Judaization has never stopped, so those responsible are the Zionist occupiers and those who support them.” This was stated in an exclusive interview with “Cinque Minuti” by Ali Baraka, one of the current leaders of Hamas.
