"The Palestinian Independence Movement"

That's how Reuters propagandist and serial liar Mohammed Assadi describes Fatah and Hamas in this story about the impending political reconciliation between the Palestinian factions.  For those not familiar with the immutable tenets of the two terror groups, here are a few salient extracts from the Hamas Charter:

For our struggle against the Jews is extremely wide-ranging and grave, so much so that it will need all the loyal efforts we can wield, to be followed by further steps and reinforced by successive battalions from the multifarious Arab and Islamic world, until the enemies are defeated and Allah’s victory prevails [...]

The prophet, prayer and peace be upon him, said: The time will not come until Muslims will fight the Jews (and kill them); until the Jews hide behind rocks and trees, which will cry: O Muslim! there is a Jew hiding behind me, come on and kill him!

And the Fatah Constitution:

Goals

Article (12): Complete liberation of Palestine, and eradication of Zionist economic, political, military and cultural existence [...]

Method

Article (19): Armed struggle is a strategy and not a tactic, and the Palestinian Arab People's armed revolution is a decisive factor in the liberation fight and in uprooting the Zionist existence, and this struggle will not cease unless the Zionist state is demolished and Palestine is completely liberated.

As President Barack Obama might ask, "you think we're stupid?"
