Hamas Rejects Israeli Truce Proposal
[Ynet News] Ali Waked - Hamas rejected Wednesday the Israeli truce proposal, with particular opposition to Prime Minister Olmert's demand that it be conditioned on progress in negotiations to bring home kidnapped soldier Gilad Shalit. Hamas also rejects the establishment a 500-yard security corridor along Gaza's border with Israel. A member of the Hamas delegation to the Cairo negotiations, Salah al-Bardawil, added that Hamas does not believe that it lost the war. "They did not damage the motivation of the resistance. This is the basis on which we are negotiating, both on the truce and on releasing Shalit," he said.
