"To achieve our goals in the liberation of our occupied land, we should have one leadership," he reportedly said, praising the recent unity accord between Hamas and Fatah.
Haniyeh added that Hamas would not recognize Israel.
Senior Palestinian official Saeb Erekat on Sunday also commented on Nakba Day events, telling Israel Radio, "This is the day of my nakba, it is the day when my nation was interrupted. Sixty-three years later, we're still interrupted, we're still under occupation. If I want to go to , I still need to ask permission from one of your kids, your soldiers."
Commenting about a plan in which Israel would agree to a Palestinian state on 1967 borders if the Palestinians agreed to recognize Israel as a Jewish state, Erekat said "Your title is the , and that is how we recognize you. It's none of mybusiness to determine who you are. I want to hear the numbers 1-9-6-7 from Netanyahu. Until we don't hear that, we're not going to waste our time."
On the Hamas-Fatah unity deal posing a challenge to the peace process, Erekat said, "We haven't yet begun talking to Hamas. Abbas is still running the government. A month ago the prime minister [Netanyahu] said who shall I make negotiations with? Enough with this. You always find excuses. You don't want to seePalestinians complain, you don't want to see Palestinians at all!"
The former PLO negotiator commented on Netanyahu blaming the PA for the recent resignation of US Middle East envoy George Mitchell, saying "I think the tsunami in Japan two months ago is blamed on us. We have accepted everything. The prime minister has foiled every step to advance talks. I believe Mitchell did a good job, but the prime minister foiled his mission."
