Senior Hamas official Khaled Mashal has urged students across the United States and worldwide to renew their demonstrations against Israel.
Last week, Mashal released a video where he called for student leaders in “Arab and Muslim countries, in the East and the West, to renew the student movement in the broadest scope, in order to stop this criminal aggression.”
“You should be proud of yourselves, oh youths of our nation and the free people of the world,” he said.
Mashal declared that the “escalation of this conflict is required.”
“Today, in the West Bank, we have seen some successful early signs of martyrdom operations,” he noted. “We want to go back to the martyrdom operations. This necessitates an all-out conflict.”
The Hamas official declared that if martyrdom operations do not ensue, Israel “will fight us piece by piece.”
Last year, Hamas Senior Official Sami Abu Zuhri called for “violent acts” to be taken against U.S. and U.K. “interests.”
“Now it is our nation’s turn to pressure the Americans to stop this war. We need violent acts against American and British interests everywhere, as well as the interests of all the countries that support the occupation,” he declared.
“They must pay a price for the blood of our women and children who are being killed in cold blood in the streets of Gaza. They must pay a price so that they know that Gaza is not alone, and that when they gave the order to kill, they should have been prepared to pay the necessary price.”
