Israel’s Enemies Speak

September 17, 2014

Muslims

In Gaza

“Thousands of fighters above ground and thousands underground have been preparing in silence for the campaign to liberate Palestine. This is a generation which knows no fear. It is the generation of the missile, the tunnel and suicide operations.”  ~Ismail Haniyeh,  senior political leader of Hamas

In the West Bank

“We might have assumed that the world would explode in their [the Israelis] faces; that the US would renounce them, and that the Russians and Europeans would adopt measures of deterrence against them—as states and societies that fought Nazism—given that no war criminal of the 20th century ever did what Israel has done.” 

~Adli Sadeq, Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) ambassador to India

“I'm telling everyone: Fatah has decided that our relations with the Israelis are relations between enemies. There is no kind of coordination between the Israelis and us. Everyone can be certain that any form of mutual coordination ended a day after they declared war on the National Unity Government…

“OK, brother, here is the occupation, am I stopping you from slaughtering a settlement? No one is stopping anyone. Don't lie and tell me: 'the [PA] Security Forces and Mahmoud Abbas…' and so on [stop you]. Drop it, OK? No one is stopping anyone. Our political decision is resistance in the occupied territories in order to bring an end to the occupation [using] all forms of resistance.”

~ Jibril Rajoub, Head of the PA Sports Authority and Deputy Secretary of the Fatah Central Committee

In Kuwait

“We are not afraid of martyrdom…We have no problem with death. We are not like the children of Israel: ‘And you will surely find them the most greedy of people for life.’ (Quran) Whereas we yearn for death and martyrdom. Every mother—especially the mothers in Palestine, but every mother in the Islamic Nation—must nurse her children on hatred of the sons of Zion. We hate them and they are our enemies. We will plant this in our children’s souls, so that a new generation will grow among us while we will erase them from the face of the earth.” 

~Tareq Al-Suwaidan, a leader of the Muslim Brotherhood in Kuwait

In Qatar

“You think the key is trust. We actually are enemies. They are the occupiers. The solution doesn’t start with trust…How could I trust my enemy?”

~Khaled Meshaal, head of Hamas political wing, in exile in Doha, Qatar 

In Norway

“If Norwegian soldiers can take planes to Afghanistan, then Osama and Mohammed can also take planes to Norway. Insha’Allah [if Allah wills]. Now, the government must wake up and assume responsibility before this war spreads to Norway. Before the counterpart reacts. Before Moslems take the steps necessary. Do not confuse the Moslems’ silence with weakness. Do not profit from the Moslems’ patience. Do not force us to do something that can be avoided. This is not a threat. Only the words of truth. The words of justice. A warning that the consequences can be fatal. A warning about a 9/11 on Norwegian ground, or larger attacks than the one carried out on 22 July. This is for your own good and in your own best interest.

“We do not want to be a part of Norwegian society. And we do not consider it necessary either to move away from Norway, because we were born and grew up here. And Allah’s earth belongs to everybody. But let Gronland (downtown area of Oslo, the capital of Norway) become ours. Bar this city quarter and let us control it the way we wish to do it (Sharia law). This is best for both parts. We do not wish to live together with dirty beasts like you.” 

~Letter from Ansar al-Sunna [Norwegian Muslim terror organization] to members of the Norwegian Parliament

In Iran

“Our clear message to Islamic governments is this: Let’s help the oppressed [of Gaza] rise and show that the Islamic world will not be calm in the face of oppression. To realize this goal, all Islamic governments, irrespective to their political and non-political differences must accelerate help to the oppressed…Criminal Zionists and their supporters, for their astonishing killing of people and detestable killing of children in Gaza, without shame, create justifications and reasons. This shows their [Israeli] malice and brazenness.”

~Ayatollah Ali Khamanei, Supreme Leader

In Lebanon

“Gaza today says to them [Israelis]—you are cowards that murder children, and if you face our heroes face to face, you and your army will fail.”

~Sayyad Hassan Nasrallah, Hezbollah Secretary General  

In the United States

“…global Zionism is unadulterated evil besetting all people. Oh, those of you who want to wage jihad for the sake of Allah, Palestine is calling you and Gaza is crying out for your help. If you are true believers, real mujahideen, hasten to Palestine.”

~Sheik Mohamed Elimam, Chicago Islamic Center

And Non-Muslims As Well

In South Africa

“The time has come to say very clearly that if a woman or child is killed in Gaza, then the Jewish board of deputies, who are complicit, will feel the wrath of the people of South Africa with the age old biblical teaching of an eye for an eye. This time has come for the conflict to be waged everywhere the Zionist supporters fund and condone the war killing machine of Israel.”

~Tony Ehrenreich, Secretary of COSATU [Congress of South African Trade Unions]

In the UK

“We reject this illegal, barbarous, savage state that calls itself Israel. And you have to do the same.”

~George Galloway, Member of the UK Parliament
