Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal has said the election victory in Israel by Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud Party will lead to ‘more extremism’. The political leader of Hamas, Khaled Meshaal, has condemned the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, for killing the peace process.
He also criticised the activities of jihadist groups, which he said were against the teachings of Islam. Khaled Meshaal was speaking to the BBC’s Middle East Editor, Jeremy Bowen, in Doha, the capital of Qatar, where he lives in exile.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

Israelis have just as much claim to the land, more so. The Palestinians have been offered half the land. Fact of the matter, Hamas want war and bloodshed. the Arab nations don't want Israel to exist.
Long live Israel

So, just so we are clear (question 2) – No, Hamas does NOT condemn ISIL or Al Quaeda.
And nor should we expect they should – they are of the same mind.
Thank you BBC for revealing that at least.

"difficult times with Netanyahu" Yea, it will be hard for Netanyahu to justify bombing Gaza so Meshaal will not be able to use dead children to stuff charity money in his pocket. Also, Netanyahu will then not be able to use Hamas as an excuse to steal land from the West Bank and lose profits for renting out free land.

Not a very good interviewer. "What does Israeli occupation have to do with other parts of the middle east?". Your news company put out a video this morning explaining how ISIS fighters have attacked a Palestinian refugee camp. Where? In Damascus, Syria, knucklehead. The occupation doesn't exist in a vacuum. "Hasn'y Hamas done just as much to kill peaceful negotiations?". Are you kidding? Hey did Hamas exist before or after years of oppression and occupation? Where they the initiators or the response to unending occupation? Who is going to the UN seeking peaceful means to establish statehood for the Palestinian people? Not Israel. Despicable journalism. He's not a young guy either, he's old enough to know better. Shame on you, sir.

The "Palestinians" need to find different "leaders." Terrorists, in this day and age and in this situation, clearly aren't the answer.
