    Also in the linked 2017 charter they state

    1. The following are considered null and void: the Balfour Declaration, the British Mandate Document, the UN Palestine Partition Resolution, and whatever resolutions and measures that derive from them or are similar to them. The establishment of “Israel” is entirely illegal and contravenes the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people and goes against their will and the will of the Ummah; it is also in violation of human rights that are guaranteed by international conventions, foremost among them is the right to self-determination.

    Which certainly sounds like them wanting to destroy Israel.

      They’re saying they don’t consider the state of Israel to be legal. That does not mean they intend to keep fighting after their demands for a Palestinian state are met. They are very clear about their peace goals and they do not include the dissolution of Israel.

        Declare our state legitimate, but also

        Your state is illegitimate.

        Sounds entirely peaceful and would not lead to further future conflicts.
