Khaled Meshaal Re-Elected Leader Of Hamas -Tuesday April 2,2013

Hamas re-elected Khaled Meshaal on Tuesday as the Palestinian Islamist group's leader after a marathon vote, a Hamas official said.

Khaled Meshaal(56) has headed the movement that controls the Palestinian territory of Gaza and rejects Israel, since 2004. He has gained a more moderate image since helping to achieve a delicate truce with Israel last year, and building ties with Gaza's other neighbour, Egypt.
