Senior Hamas figure Mohammad Nazzal, speaking from abroad, weighed in on recent reports about possible renewed efforts for a ceasefire and prisoner exchange deal between Israel and the group.
In an interview with Al Jazeera, Nazzal dismissed the notion, insisting the discussions are “not relevant” after Israel’s strike targeting Hamas leaders in Doha, Qatar.
Nazzal explained that the gathering in the office of senior Hamas leader Khalil al-Hayya was centered around “Palestinian resistance” and included talks about a fresh U.S. proposal. Yet he described the chatter about restarting negotiations as nothing more than “an entertaining discourse.”
“What would have happened if the attempted elimination had succeeded?” he challenged. “Which delegation does [Israeli Prime Minister] Netanyahu want to hold negotiations with?”
At this stage, Nazzal emphasized, it is “crucial” to coordinate with other Palestinian Arab factions, along with mediators such as Qatar and Egypt, and to address the ramifications of the attempted assassinations.

That’s perfect as well. Will have no more reason to show any restraint go in there and wipe them all out. You guys think you hold all the cards the only card you hold is the temptation that we could save a hostage and once that’s off the table. There’s no reason to show any more restraint.
really laughable! they are right.
why on earth did we think we could negotiate with such beasts???
just we should change tactics a bit, so that no more Jews will get killed there.
