Hamas is not part of a peaceful solution

IT HAS barely been a month since the western world expressed its support for the formation of a Palestinian unity government.

Since then there have been kidnappings, murders, hundreds of rockets fired at civilian towns and huge levels of violence.

The US State department said that they would be watching closely to make sure that the Palestinian unity government would uphold the principles of peace.

British foreign Minister William Hague said, “We have made clear that our continued support to the new government will rest on its commitment to the principle of non-violence.”

How much more proof does the western world need to acknowledge that Hamas isn’t part of the peaceful solution to the conflict the world desires?
