Stephen Sackur speaks to Mahmoud al-Zahar, co-founder of the
Islamist movement Hamas. Donald Trump broke with long established
diplomatic convention by recognising Jerusalem as Israel's
capital. His recent tweets on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict
have been music to the ears of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu. So what do the Palestinians do now? Hamas controls
Gaza and has been at loggerheads with the Palestinian Authority
in the West Bank for more than a decade. Are the Palestinians
staring defeat in the face?
