Hamas accepts 1967 borders, but will never recognize Israel, top official says

[$teve]

Speaking to Palestinian news agency Ma'an, Mahmoud Zahar says recognition of Israel would deprive future Palestinian generations of the possibility to 'liberate' their lands.

Hamas would be willing to accept a Palestinian state within 1967 borders, a leader of the militant group, Mahmoud Zahar, told the Palestinian news agency Ma'an on Wednesday, adding, however, that Hamas would never recognize Israel since such a move would counter the group's aim to "liberate" all of Palestine.

I've been wondering, in all the discussions about borders whether the topic of offshore drilling rights has ever come up. Gaza is right on the coast. Israel is prophesied to be very wealthy and everyone assumes this means oil discoveries.

Just wondering.
