"Hamas has been looking forward to implement Allah's promise whatever time it might take. The prophet, prayer and peace be upon him, said: The time will not come until Muslims will fight the Jews (and kill them); until the Jews hide behind rocks and trees, which will cry: O Muslim! there is a Jew hiding behind me, come on and kill him…
"The so-called peaceful solutions, and the international conferences to resolve the Palestinian problem, are all contrary to the beliefs of the Islamic Resistance Movement. For renouncing any part of Palestine means renouncing part of the religion; the nationalism of the Islamic Resistance Movement is part of its faith, the movement educates its members to adhere to its principles and to raise the banner of Allah over their homeland as they fight their Jihad…Since when did the Unbelievers do justice to the Believers? 'And the Jews will not be pleased with thee, nor will the Christians, till thou follow their creed….' There is no solution to the Palestinian problem except by Jihad….
"In order to face the usurpation of Palestine by the Jews, we have no escape from raising the banner of Jihad. This would require the propagation of Islamic consciousness… We must spread the spirit of Jihad among the [Islamic] Umma… introducing fundamental changes in educational curricula in order to cleanse them from all vestiges of the ideological invasion which has been brought about by orientalists and missionaries…. 'I swear by that who holds in His Hands the Soul of Muhammad! I indeed wish to go to war for the sake of Allah! I will assault and kill, assault and kill, assault and kill'….
"The various Zionist Organizations which take on all sorts of names and shapes… Islam… will wipe out those organizations which are the enemy of humanity and Islam….
"The Nazism of the Jews does not skip women and children, it scares everyone. They make war against people's livelihood, plunder their moneys and threaten their honor….
"The enemies have been scheming for a long time… They took advantage of key elements in unfolding events, and accumulated a huge and influential material wealth which they put to the service of implementing their dream…. [They have] control of the world media [and use their] wealth to stir revolutions… They stood behind the French and the Communist Revolutions… They also used the money to establish clandestine organizations which are spreading around the world, in order to destroy societies and carry out Zionist interests. Such organizations are: the Freemasons, Rotary Clubs, Lions Clubs, B'nai B'rith and the like…. They also used the money to take over control of the Imperialist states and made them colonize many countries in order to exploit the wealth of those countries and spread their corruption therein… they stood behind World War I, so as to wipe out the Islamic Caliphate…. They also stood behind World War II, where they collected immense benefits from trading with war materials and prepared for the establishment of their state. They inspired the establishment of the United Nations and the Security Council… in order to rule the world by their intermediary. There was no war that broke out anywhere without their fingerprints on it… When Islam appears, all the forces of Unbelief unite to confront it, because the Community of Unbelief is one….
"The clandestine organizations which it has established… strive to demolish societies, to destroy values… It stands behind the diffusion of drugs and toxics of all kinds in order to facilitate its control and expansion…. Israel, by virtue of its being Jewish and of having a Jewish population, defies Islam and the Muslims….
"Hamas is a humane movement, which cares for human rights and is committed to the tolerance inherent in Islam as regards attitudes towards other religions. It is only hostile to those who are hostile towards it, or stand in its way in order to disturb its moves or to frustrate its efforts. Under the shadow of Islam it is possible for the members of the three religions: Islam, Christianity and Judaism to coexist in safety and security. Safety and security can only prevail under the shadow of Islam… members of other religions must desist from struggling against Islam over sovereignty in this region…. The Nazi Zionist practices against our people will not last the lifetime of their invasion…
"World Zionism and Imperialist forces have been attempting, with smart moves and considered planning, to push the Arab countries, one after another, out of the circle of conflict with Zionism, in order, ultimately, to isolate the Palestinian People…. Today it is Palestine and tomorrow it may be another country or other countries. For Zionist scheming has no end, and after Palestine they will covet expansion from the Nile to the Euphrates…. Their scheme has been laid out in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, and their present [conduct] is the best proof of what is said there. Leaving the circle of conflict with Israel is a major act of treason and it will bring curse on its perpetrators… We have no escape from pooling together all the forces and energies to face this despicable Nazi-Tatar invasion…Within the circle of the conflict with world Zionism, the Hamas regards itself the spearhead and the avant-garde…in order to make possible the next round with the Jews, the merchants of war."
