If you were the President of Israel , would you sit down and talk about Peace with Hamas?

Question

or........another option?

H: its dreams that keep us from being totally hopeless.....Peace!

Tyler I think your being paranoid...what ever you have to say either way let er rip! Cheers!

It's obviously a what if question , nothing more nothing less.

Answer 1

Yes, I would. That would show the world that we are both (if Hamas agrees) are willing to bring this conflict to an end.

To bad that this is just a dream.

Answer 2

I would normally say yes, though I doubt Hamas would go for anything more than a long term truce as a peace deal would go against their basic principals, but then again things can change in time.

The reason though I would be hesitant is the current political spat between Hamas and the Palestinian Authority. The PA dose not recognize Hamas as the legitimate goverment of Gaza.

It would be in very bad form to do anything to give Hamas legitimacy while they are against the PA.

If things changed to resolve that issue I would have no problem talking to Hamas. Until then I am uncertain if it is the best course of action.

Answer 3

i in my view think of that maximum individuals have self belief that peace is impossible. simply by fact of this while the Antichrist gets "the" peace treaty signed many will see him simply by fact the Messiah and worship him as such. they are going to be very much deceived. i don't understand if Obama is the single which will definitely convey peace. a lot of his movements are utilising us swifter and swifter into the "one international government" "the recent international Order" the "worldwide forex" and so on.. and a great style of folk in the international are excited and hoping for it. i've got self belief if no longer something he's a minimum of putting the diploma for the destiny peace treaty. And a international domination by the Antichrist.

Answer 4

No. I think it is beneficial for Israel to look at negotiating a possible time line for gradual withdrawal of troops from the West Bank. They can have meetings with Abbas but for any successful agreement to work there are a number of requirements such as:

dropping of the right of return for Palestinian refugees into either Palestine or Israel;

the ending of settlements;

clearing out of settlements past the '67 border;

compensation and/or housing and land for displaced Palestinians (from the settlements and since the '67 occupation);

fair deals on borders;

agreements on Palestinian requirements to fight insurgency and extremism;

recognition of Israel's right to security, self-defense and existence as a nation;

some agreement on the sharing of Jerusalem;

change in the situation between Iran and Israel and a military option cannot be taken off the table at this point.

Answer 5

Nope. Hamas is fundamentally opposed to peace - as stated in their charter - and as President I would seek a true and final agreement. I am not interested in playing cat-and-mouse with some juvenile terrorist syndicate; if they want peace, they have to say so plainly. Before any talks could even be considered, Hamas would need to make public statements to the affect that 1) They no longer seek the destruction of Israel 2) Terrorist is both wrong and not the way to accomplish peace and 3) They are ready to negotiate seeking final peace and not a ceasefire or a Hudna. Only after these three pre-requisites are announced would I meet.

Answer 6

President? You mean primeminister right, the job of president is mostly a symbolic thing, the prime minister does most of the work the president is just a show piece thing.

Answer 7

Hamas will never accept to set and talk with Israel, now if Israel want ceasefire, okay, without negotiation, without kissing each other in front of the cameras, if they are interested in truce, say it to the media, that is enough.

Answer 8

What for? it's a fight to the finish and no state has ever won an asymetrical war. It's just a matter of time. As in Vietnam.

Answer 9

Talking to a brick wall would accomplish more. What is the point of talking to a group that personifies hatred. It's like a drowning man asking the water not to kill him - it serves no point.

Answer 10

Hamas doesn't exist . . . it's the Hamasists who control the world banks and are dictating American foreign policy,

Haven't you read "The Protocols of the Elders of Hamas" ?

It's written in detail how they plan to destroy Judaism and Christianity and take over and fulfill their plan for world domination.

( Ooops, sorry, that's the Koran . . . )

Anyway, the Hamasists are just trying to colonize the Middle East and drive everyone else into the sea.

Hope this helps :-)
