5. PREMIER REJECTS COMPROMISE, RENEWS PLEDGE NOT TO RECOGNIZE ISRAEL
Transcribed from the clipping
GAZA STRIP GAZA CITY (AP) - Hamas will not be edged out of power, accept compromise or recognize Israel, Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh told tens of thousands of banner-waving supporters at a rally Friday.
Haniyeh's fiery performance was interrupted when he fainted onstage, seemingly overcome by the combined effects of heat and two weeks of dawn-to-dusk fasting during the holy month of Ramadan. He resumed his speech after a few minutes.
The Hamas leader ruled out a proposal by members of his own Hamas movement to form a new government of technocrats as a way of winning international support and ending a seven-month aid freeze.
