'Hamas officials are the representatives of the Palestinian nation, and Israel must recognize the new reality,' Dr. Abed al-Aziz Duaik, a Hamas moderate slated to head the new Palestinian Legislative Council said Wednesday. Duaik, who will be sworn in Saturday, told Israel Radio that Israeli threats to impose what he terms an 'economic embargo' on the Palestinian Authority are undemocratic.
How long do they think Israel and the world will sit still for just half a democracy lesson? Yeah, probably right.
