Hamas says…
“We will not betray promises we made to God to continue the path of Jihad and resistance until the liberation of Palestine, all of Palestine,” Hamas said in a statement, in a clear reference to Israel as well as to the occupied West Bank. …
In its statement Hamas said it continued to be a “movement of resistance, seekers of martyrdom” and that its “principles will never be changed.”
“Zawahri’s recent statements were wrong … Resistance is our strategy. How and when? This depends on the reality at the time and our corresponding view of things,” Hamas said.
“So be assured doctor Ayman, and all those who love Palestine like yourself, that Hamas is still the group you knew when it was founded and it will never abandon its path.”
