Hamas links merger into regular army to establishment of independent Palestine state
[GEO.TV] Hamas has signalled to merge into the regular army and cease its counter-attacks against Israeli brutality on the condition that the independent Paleostinian state is established, the group’s official Basem Naim told CNN Thursday.

Naim — who is a member of Hamas’ based in Istanbul — told the outlet referring to the group's armed wing: "If an independent state with its capital in Jerusalem, while preserving the right of return for refugees, [is created] Al Qassam could be integrated into [a future] national army."

Mustafa Barghouti, President of the Paleostinian National Initiative, was unaware of the proposal, however, suggested that "it would be a significant move if true."

"It's significant in the sense that Paleostinians are resisting occupation because there is an occupation," he told media outlet.

#2 I think a Palestinian state is a great idea. The only question is where to put it. Inside or next to Israel is out of the question because that's just cats and dogs. The Arab states don't want them because of the Paleo's well-known tendency to be (let's be nice!) destabilizing. That leaves somewhere remote, like a deserted Pacific atoll or somewhere already messed up like Haiti or Somalia where a little more chaos and violence would pass unnoticed.
