Hamas: Abbas mustn't relinquish our rights for a 'U.S. illusion'

By DPA

Palestinian factions in exile in Damascus on Saturday warned Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas against giving up on the "rights of the Palestinian people" in exchange for a "U.S. illusion."

In a joint statement sent to reporters after a Saturday meeting of political leaders from Hamas, Islamic Jihad and other Damascus-based factions, the groups said they would reject any international agreement Abbas might strike "on behalf of our people that would target our people's rights under the guise of peace."

Abbas, speaking to reporters on Saturday after briefing Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak on his recent meeting with U.S. President Barack Obama, said he fully supported the U.S. administration's emphasis on the importance of establishing an independent Palestinian state and a halt to the expansion of Israeli settlements in the West Bank.

Issuing comments following Abbas' trip to Washington, the groups warned against the "U.S. illusion of a new settlement under the slogan of a 'two-state solution'," given what they called "the extreme racism" of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government and "the escalation of the Israeli position."

The groups called for an end to the two-year-old blockade of the Gaza Strip and to what they called the "Judaization" of the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
