CAIRO, June 11 (Reuters) - Hamas accepts a UN Security Council ceasefire resolution and is ready to negotiate over the details, senior Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri told Reuters on Tuesday, adding that it was up to Washington to ensure that Israel abides by it.

Hamas accepts the UN security council resolution in regard to the ceasefire, withdrawal of Israeli troops and swap of hostages for detainees held by Israel, he said.

“The U.S. administration is facing a real test to carry out its commitments in compelling the occupation to immediately end the war in an implementation of the UN Security Council resolution,” Abu Zuhri said.

        We’ve been allied with Israel for 60 years. Bibi is fucking that up and needs to go. I’m not sure that being the mediator between a powermonger and a terrorist organization is the right answer. I don’t know what the right answer is. How many Americans are still there and what should we do to get them home?

      Yes. Diplomacy is good. War is bad. Killing civilians is bad. Abducting people is bad. But diplomacy is good.

      Yes, just like when someone take hostages in a bank, you don’t kill the abducter and the hostages with him
