“The Zionist occupation’s staged theatrics, featuring unarmed civilians in Gaza, having been detained and surrounded by placed weapons, represent a desperate and transparent ploy.

“The occupation’s claims linking these unarmed detainees to the Al-Qassam Brigades lack authenticity and are steeped in falsehood, failing to garner any credence within the realm of truth and reality. Such proclamations are mere illusions that find no purchase in the discerning minds of those observing. The occupiers are ill-acquainted with the indomitable spirit of the resistance heroes emerging unexpectedly from unconventional quarters, consistently fortifying their positions against incursions, ensuring the Israeli soldiers and their commanders pay the price, and steadfastly targeting settlements. They are the fighters for nation and the cause of Allah, unfamiliar with the concepts of surrender or defeat. Their enduring motto remains: ‘It is Jihad, we are either destined for victory or martyrdom.’”Hamas statement, Hamas Online Telegram Channel, December 10, 2023.

Statement advocating for Pakistani military intervention in Gaza:

“It is the shari’a obligation of the military leadership that instead of condolences and sympathy, it should root out the Jewish state and destroy this cancerous pimple…Why are [Pakistan's] ballistic missiles not being fired at Tel Aviv to protect our mujahideen on the ground?... If your current leaders are not able to lead you in this war, then hand over the power to someone who can establish the caliphate based on the Prophet and move the armies for Jihad against Jews.”“Hizbut Tahrir Pakistan Calls On Pakistani Military To Fight Israel: ‘Why Are [Pakistan’s] Ballistic Missiles Not Being Fired At Tel Aviv To Protect Our Mujahideen?,’” Middle East Media Research Institute, November 20, 2023, https://www.memri.org/jttm/hizbut-tahrir-pakistan-calls-pakistani-military-fight-israel-why-are-pakistans-ballistic.

Asked in an Al Arabiya interview about Hamas’s relationship with Hezbollah and other Arab nations:

“Outside of Palestine, we are grateful to whoever is standing by us. Hezbollah in Lebanon. The Lebanese front is currently active, we are grateful for that, whether it is by the Lebanese, the Palestinians or anyone. Hezbollah has an active role there. Those clashes in South Lebanon are good, and support our cause, but the scope of the battle the title is ‘Al-Aqsa Flood’ and when such a heinous crime is perpetrated against Gaza greater things are needed but we should not single out Lebanon and Hezbollah, let’s focus on countries bordering Israel. The great Egypt has waged large wars. The Egyptians are boiling [with anger]. We salute the Egyptian people and want more. I demand a more powerful position by Egyptian leaders.”“Exclusive: ‘Israel will kill us, whether we resist or not,’ says former Hamas chief,” Al Arabiya, last updated October 21, 2023, https://english.alarabiya.net/News/middle-east/2023/10/19/-Israel-is-killing-us-whether-we-resist-or-not-says-former-Hamas-chief.

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].
