RAMALLAH: The Palestinian National Liberation Movement Fatah affirmed that whoever caused Israel’s reoccupation of the Gaza Strip, and caused the Nakba that the Palestinian people are experiencing, especially in the Gaza Strip, does not have the right to dictate national priorities, stressing that Hamas is disconnected from reality and the Palestinian people, adding that Hamas’ leadership which haven’t yet felt the gravity of the catastrophe that Palestinian oppressed people are experiencing in the Gaza Strip and in the rest of the Palestinian territories.
Fatah expressed its astonishment and disapproval at Hamas’ talk of division, and wondered whether Hamas consulted the Palestinian leadership or any Palestinian national party when it made its decision to undertake the events of October 7, which led to a catastrophe more horrific and cruel than the catastrophe of 1948?
“Did Hamas consult the Palestinian leadership, while it is now negotiating with Israel and offering it concessions after concessions, and t
hat it has no goal other than for its leaders to receive guarantees for their personal security, and to try to reach an agreement with Netanyahu again to maintain its divisive role in Gaza and the Palestinian arena? The question is whether Hamas consulted anyone when it carried out its black coup on Palestinian national legitimacy in 2007, it rejected all initiatives to end the division.” Fatah said in a statement.
Fatah affirmed that President Mahmoud Abbas has the right, in accordance with the law, to do everything that is in the interest of the Palestinian people, stressing that the President’s assignment to Mohammad Mustafa falls at the heart of the President’s political and legal responsibilities, and that the priorities of the assignments are the priorities of the Palestinian people.
“Every rational person, who is not disconnected from his people and from the reality of the terrible tragedy experienced by our people who are exposed to great injustice in the Gaza Strip, realize this,” Fatah added, stre
ssing that the priority of all Palestinians today is to stop the war immediately, prevent displacement, provide relief to Palestinian people, rebuild the Gaza Strip, end the division, and reunify the Palestinian homeland, which Hamas showed isn’t a priority in its statement today.
Fatah confirmed that the Prime Minister-designate, Muhammad Mustafa, is armed with the national agenda and not with false agendas that have brought nothing but woes to the Palestinian people and have not achieved a single achievement for them.
“Does Hamas want us to appoint a prime minister from Iran or for Tehran to appoint him for us?,” Fatah wondered in its statement.
Fatah criticized the actions and practices of the Hamas leadership and its behavior towards the genocidal war, noting that it seems that the comfortable life that this leadership lives in seven-star hotels has blinded it from what is right, wondering why most of Hamas’ leaders live abroad, and why they and their families fled and left the Palestinian people to fa
ce a brutal war of extermination without any protection.
Fatah called on the leadership of the Hamas movement to stop its policy of being dependent on foreign agendas, and to return to the national side in order to stop the war and save Palestinian people and cause from liquidation, and in order to provide relief to Palestinian people and rebuild Gaza, leading to complete withdrawal from the land of the State of Palestine, with Jerusalem as its capital.
