This is a highly misleading presentation. Those words were never said and the words that were said have been twisted and taken out of context.
Context: Shtayyeh, who is definitely being slippery, has just stated that he considers that part of the political reality of Palestine is that Hamas has to be dealt with and suggested he is open to a detente between the PA and Hamas, but only if Hamas accept the PA's political platform. The interviewer is, to put it mildly, sceptical.
Interviewer: "I mean, we're talking about Hamas here. This is, you know, an organisation that has a history of undermining peace through violence. They reject the Oslo Accords, they're committed to armed resistance against Zionism. I mean look at the brutality of October 7th where they slaughtered more than a thousand people, took hundreds of hostages - the youngest being nine months old; evidence of sexual violence, rape, mutilation...Does Hamas really deserve another chance?"
Shtayyeh: "Look, as I told you, one should not continue focussing on October 7th. I told you at the very beginning that no way...that no way we accept, no way we accept any killing of any civilian innocent people, this is something that we should put behind ourselves. Under any circumstances that we need to have a situation in which palestinians are united but again on our political agenda. We are not going to go to their ground, we are not going to go to their ground, we want them to come to our ground. Our ground is very clear: Two states on the borders of '67 through peaceful means, [Talk continues]"
Seems like pie in the sky stuff. Not a chance in hell Israel would accept Hamas as a viable partner for anything. Nonetheless at no point is the world told to forget about October 7th.
Here's the interview (relevant part starts at 15.31):
