“Sons of Islam everywhere, the jihad is a duty – to establish the rule of Allah on earth and to liberate your countries and yourselves from America’s domination and its Zionist allie.”

Hamas leaders wish to be martyrs and are not scared of death. Jihad will continue and the resistance will continue until we have victory, or we will be martyrs.

Our priorities require that all children of Palestine, men and women, be ready for conflict, both from the standpoint of training and from the standpoint of armament.

Resistance in Palestine will continue until the final liberation of all the Palestinian lands.

The so-called peace path is not peace and it is not a substitute for jihad and resistance

Not from weakness or lack of ability to do so, but because Hamas does not wish for further fronts to be opened against it around the world

Its your battle – either victory or martyrdom.

Hamas’ battle is against the Zionist occupation in the Palestinian land. Hamas has no desire to change its battlefield.

In the past there was a difference between the conditions in which Hizballah operated in Lebanon and the conditions of resistance operated in Palestine.

We did not fight the Americans or the Europeans. We fight only the Israeli enemy that took our homes and homeland.

We are saying our people can work individually or collectively to face this aggression.

The Hamas has taken the path of avoiding causing harm to Zionist interests outside of Palestine.

I think Israel will think one thousands times before invading Gaza.

There are perhaps opportunities for greater political cooperation, at least more cooperation than exists now.

The Muslim people is calling upon you, Jerusalem is appealing to you, will anyone answer?

But it is only Islamic resistance movements that are put on the terrorist list. This is what I am saying.

It is an exaggeration to call the Hamas and Islamic Jihad announcement a military alliance. It is rather a message that our people are united in the face of Israeli aggression.
