Hamas Accuses Blinken of Complicity in Gaza Conflict, Threatens Legal Action

[Social Media]

 

Hamas has issued a threat to prosecute U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, accusing him of being "a partner in the war of extermination" in Gaza. The accusation comes after Blinken attributed the failures in reaching a cease-fire agreement to Hamas, following his recent interview with the New York Times.

 

Osama Hamdan, a senior member of Hamas’ politburo, vehemently criticized Blinken during a news conference in Algeria. “His statements are misleading, and we do not trust them. His partnership in the crimes against our people will be pursued legally,” Hamdan declared, as reported by the Times of Israel. He denied Hamas's responsibility for the breakdown of negotiations, asserting that Palestinians could only rely on force to end the ongoing conflict.

 

Hamdan emphasized Hamas's determination to halt what he described as aggression, insisting on Israeli withdrawal from Gaza without conditions. He reiterated the group's commitment to relief and reconstruction efforts free from Israeli stipulations.

 

In his interview, Blinken accused Hamas of repeatedly derailing cease-fire negotiations aimed at ending the war that erupted after Hamas’s attack on Israel on October 7, which resulted in over 1,200 deaths and the kidnapping of 251 individuals. Blinken highlighted Hamas's failure to secure a deal, despite Israel's offers of safe passage for Hamas leaders and fighters out of Gaza.

 

“Where is the world? Where is the world saying, Yeah, do that! End this! Stop the suffering of people that you brought on!” Blinken questioned, expressing frustration over the lack of global condemnation towards Hamas for prolonging the conflict.

 

Hamas has persistently dismissed cease-fire proposals, insisting on no hostage releases until Israel commits to a permanent cease-fire and withdrawal from Gaza—conditions Israel has firmly rejected. Israel maintains that it will only cease its military operations once all hostages are released and Hamas is dismantled.

 

In addition to his criticism of Blinken, Hamdan also rebuked President-elect Donald Trump, who had previously warned of severe consequences if the hostages were not released before his upcoming inauguration. “I think the US president must make more disciplined and diplomatic statements,” Hamdan commented.

 

This latest development underscores the continued tensions between Hamas and the United States, with the group's leaders adamantly opposing the narratives and actions of U.S. officials concerning the Gaza conflict.
