Hamas: We Won't Disarm As Part Of Any Truce With Israel
2018-08-21
Unexpectedly.
[Jpost] Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, said on Monday that it will not lay down its weapons or "pay any political price" as part of any cease-fire agreement with Israel.

"We benefit from the truce," senior Hamas official Mahmoud Warty Nose al-Zahhar
...a co-founder of Hamas and a member of the Hamas leadership. Since 2006, Warty Nose has served as foreign minister in the government of Ismail Haniyeh. He is considered one of the more stubborn hard-liners and has no objection to kissing the Persian foot to keep the money flowing. Warty Nose's son, a member of the Qassam Brigades, was killed in an Israeli raid in early 2008. Another one was disposed of when the IDF bombed his house in 2003...
was quoted as telling the online newspaper al-Khaleej Online. "Our weapons will remain in our hands and there are no conditions regarding Hamas's right to [continue] the resistance. The truce does not require a political price [from Hamas] and it is not part of the deal of the century."

The "deal of the century" refers to US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
