Special report: Internal situation in Palestine

    GAZA, June 30 (Xinhua) -- A military wing of Hams movement vowed on Saturday to receive any international forces in Gaza with "missiles and rockets."

    "The goal of these forces was to strengthen a party at the expense of the other party," Ezz el-Deen al-Qassam said in a press release.

    The group added that it will deal with them "as an occupation force and will receive them with missiles and rockets." The statement came after Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who is of rival Fatah movement, called for international forces in Gaza Strip to secure the holding of early elections. Abbas' call was made Friday during a visit to France, his first European stop since Hamas Islamists took control of Gaza Stripearlier this month.

    Abbas intends to hold early presidential and parliamentary elections to curb Hamas, which, for their part, opposes the early polls. Hamas won a landslide victory in 2006 legislative elections. Meanwhile, a spokesman for Hamas considered Abbas' refusal to talk with the Islamic movement as "a submission to the Israeli and American orders."

    "President Abbas is asked to come back to dialogue if he was willing to and it is forbidden for him to come back on an Israeli or American tank," spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri told reporters in Gaza.
