“The American administration has not only given the green light to this Zionist aggression and the war of genocide and ethnic cleansing against our people, but has always positioned itself as a loyal advocate for (Israel) in all stages of its aggression and terrorism. Today, it brazenly repeats the Zionist lies, which hold Hamas responsible for resuming the war and not extending the humanitarian truce.”Tom O’Connor, “Hamas Takes Aim at Biden as Truce Gives Way to New Fighting in Gaza,” Newsweek, December 1, 2023, https://www.newsweek.com/hamas-biden-truce-fighting-gaza-1848905.

Following a shooting attack in Jerusalem that killed at least three people:

The attack is “a direct response to the unprecedented crimes committed by the occupying forces, including brutal massacres in the Gaza Strip, the killing of children in Jenin, and widespread violations against Palestinian prisoners. Moreover, the continued violations in the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the prevention of worshippers’ access to it.”Ibrahim Dahman and Eyad Kourdi, “Hamas says its militants killed three people at Jerusalem bus stop,” CNN, November 30, 2023, https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/30/middleeast/hamas-jerusalem-bus-stop-shooting-intl/index.html; Emanuel Fabian, “Four killed, 5 injured in Hamas-claimed terror shooting at Jerusalem bus stop,” Times of Israel, November 30, 2023, https://www.timesofisrael.com/three-killed-6-injured-in-terror-shooting-at-jerusalem-entrance-bus-stop/.

“Worldwide call to mobilize in support of Gaza this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday

“As the Zionist aggression and genocidal war continues against our people in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and Jerusalem, and amid systematic violations perpetrated against our prisoners in Israeli jails, we call on the masses of our Arab and Islamic nation and free people across the world to continue their rallies in solidarity with our Palestinian people and our just cause. We call on them to mobilize all their popular means to reject and denounce the crimes and massacres committed by the Nazi occupation, to call for an end to its barbaric aggression and decades-long occupation.

“We call on the free masses and those who bear a living conscience, who responded to the call of Gaza, Jerusalem, and the rest of Palestine, to continue their marches in all cities, capitals, and squares of the world on the coming Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, to make their voice heard. We urge them to be emboldened by the strength of Palestinian rights and the justice and legitimacy of our struggle. We also appeal to them to maintain all forms of solidarity and support, until the aggression and heinous massacres against our children and defenseless civilians stop.”Hamas Press Statement, Hamas Online Telegram channel, November 30, 2023.

Hamas statement, November 21, 2023

“The Nazi Israeli occupation army persists in disseminating deceptive and false narratives surrounding Zionist prisoners, such as the claim that a female soldier was killed within the said hospital premises, and her body was later discovered. It is imperative to underscore the following points:

“The Al-Qassam Brigades have unequivocally verified that the well-being of injured Zionist prisoners was meticulously monitored, and requisite medical attention was administered in hospitals before their subsequent return to their places of detention. Therefore, the Zionist military spokesperson’s contributions contribute nothing new but rather serve as a veiled attempt to mask their deceit, particularly their unfounded claim that the Hamas movement has used Al-Shifa Hospital as the command and control center.

“The same occupation army, which, as per the Zionist police investigation disclosed in the Haaretz newspaper and Hebrew media, inflicted casualties upon its citizen through aerial bombardments on October 7, is now implicated in the killing of some of its own prisoners during Zionist raids, a detailed disclosure by the Al-Qassam Brigades.

“We assert that the occupation force lacks the aptitude to conduct investigations and pass judgments, being the very aggressor responsible for committing egregious war crimes against hospitals, among others. We have repeatedly called for the establishment of an international committee to scrutinize the Israeli Nazi occupation’s fabrications regarding hospitals, now transformed into Israeli military outposts after coercively evacuating patients and medical staff at gunpoint and under duress.”Hamas Press Statement, Hamas Online Telegram Channel, November 21, 2023.

Extremists: Their Words. Their Actions.

In Their Own Words:

We reiterate once again that the brigades will directly target US bases across the region in case the US enemy commits a folly and decides to strike our resistance fighters and their camps [in Iraq].
