<p style="font-size:10pt;">CAIRO, (PIC)&#8211; Taher al-Nunu, spokesman  for the Palestinian Government in Gaza, has said that Israel&#8217;s recent  aggression was aimed at foiling Hamas&#8217;s efforts to reconcile with rival  Fatah and at measuring the response from Egypt and the Arabs as the  situation in the region unfolds.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">”[Israel] was eager to single out Gaza in  light of the region being preoccupied with operations for liberation  from regimes and with successive popular revolutions,” Nunu told the  Palestinian Information Center.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">He pointed out that, as the Israeli  aggression came to its conclusion, Israel failed to achieve its  objectives, and the Palestinians earned a stronger sense of unity and  rallying around the resistance program, and the Arabs became more aware  of Israel&#8217;s schemes.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">”The raising of the Palestinian flag in  Tahrir Square in front of the Israeli embassy in Cairo was a key reason  why the aggression on the Gaza Strip stopped, after it became clear to  the Israeli administration that Egypt, its leadership and people, reject  any Israeli aggression on Gaza.”</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Nunu emphasized the role played by the  Egyptian Foreign Ministry in curbing the attacks, as well as the  decision made by the Arab League asking the UN Security Council for a  no-fly zone over Gaza.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Concerning national reconciliation, Nunu  said Prime Minister Ismail Haneyya&#8217;s initiative to meet with Abbas is  still in effect. He said that the government in Gaza is not against  Abbas visiting the Strip, but he said, ”the visit must be preceded by  arrangements in order to be successful”.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">He went on to say that the government has called for talks with Fatah based on a deadline before Abbas&#8217;s visit to Gaza.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">He added that talks will start from where  they left off, saying that issues concerning the Palestine Liberation  Organization and the government&#8217;s political program are the two main  topics that must be resolved during talks.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">He emphasized that Haneyya has exerted  major efforts towards Palestinian reconciliation, and pointed out that  the chances for achieving reconciliation are more now than ever before.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">”Mahmoud Abbas has no choice but to  reconcile and adhere to the will of the Palestinians to end the split.  And we hope that this is his choice,” Nunu said.</p>
