Khaled Meshaal - Leader of the Political Bureau of Hamas

Interviews with newsmakers and personalities from across the globe. Stephen Sackur travels to Doha to speak to Khaled Meshaal, the leader of Palestinian Islamist movement, Hamas.

But not, it seems, in the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians. On that front does Hamas have anything new to offer?
