Khaled Meshaal
"God will ask Arabs and Muslims what are they doing while the sons of Palestine are doing their duties," said Meshaal. This is essentially the same religious appeal that mujahedin make around the world.
AL-YARMOUK CAMP, Syria (Reuters) - Hamas political leader Khaled Meshaal on Monday called for an Arab and Muslim alliance to defeat the United States and Israel."Our battle is with two sides, one of them is the strongest power in the world, the United States, and the second is the strongest power in the region (Israel)," he told hundreds of people at the al-Yarmouk Palestinian refugee camp near Damascus.
"That is the caliber of the battle. We will not be victorious unless the other side of the battle is Arab and Muslim. All of the Arabs and Muslims," he said at a memorial ceremony for Abdel-Aziz al-Rantissi, the group's Gaza leader assassinated by Israel on Saturday.
Meshaal, who survived a 1997 Israeli assassination attempt in Jordan, vowed Hamas would avenge the killing of Rantissi and the group's spiritual leader Sheikh Ahmed Yassin on March 22.
The Hamas politburo chief vowed Palestinians would "turn Earth on their heads, God willing."
The Israelis live "in horror...ahead of our response, during it and after it," he said. "Do not worry, there will be a response and resistance will continue, God willing."
He urged the leaders of 22 Arab states and more than 30 non-Arab Muslim countries to "make an alliance, even a temporary one...to combine capabilities against the enemy."
"The problem is in us and not in the balance of power...if the (Islamic) nation would fight the same way (Palestinians and Iraqis) are fighting in Rafah, Jenin and Falluja then by God we will defeat both the United States and Israel," he said.
Arab and Muslim people "have a great duty and I do not want to tell them what to do... God will ask Arabs and Muslims what are they doing while the sons of Palestine are doing their duties," he said.
Hamas, which has vowed to destroy the Jewish state, envisages having Israel and the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip as part of a Palestinian state. It rejects the U.S.-sponsored "road map" peace plan which calls for establishing a Palestinian state next to Israel by 2005.
Meshaal told Reuters last Wednesday President Bush "fired a fatal bullet at the road map and at any other settlement plan" when he approved Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's plan for unilateral moves.
While endorsing Sharon's unilateral Gaza pullout plan, Bush also offered backing for Israel to retain parts of the occupied West Bank and a negation of any right of return of Palestinian refugees displaced in 1948 to their homes in what is now Israel.
Meshaal urged Arab leaders, who are expected to hold a summit meeting in Tunisia in May, "to declare the death of the so-called peace process."
Bring it......Muslims in the US will certainly pay the price for anymore attacks on America.
Meshaal doesn't want peace - he wants all of Israel...

I've come to the conclusion that unless a Muslim wants to live peacefully, I don't want to hear about what they want, because it simply isn't important to me.
D.C. - You must have forgotton the Muslim definition of peace - living in Islam as dhimmis or converts, not with Islam as equals. We might want to live with Islam if Muslims don't insist upon special favors and rights that aren't accorded to others. No other immigrant group has ever been given such latitude.
"He urged the leaders of 22 Arab states and more than 30 non-Arab Muslim countries to 'make an alliance, even a temporary one...to combine capabilities against the enemy.'"
anyone who beckons this call will find their fate closely resembles that of saddam and the guantanamo detainees if they survive the battlefield.
epg: Exactly my point, this way I won't have to listen to their request or demands at all......they hide behind religion/cult.....They're either quiet or loud, smiling or glaring......but they are what they are, and most are the exact same robotic, thoughtless, heartless being.
I hate to say this but it is the truth. Ilsam is from the pits of hell spawned by satan himself.
I can prove this by showing you
A. muslims always comlain its all the jews and americas fault.
B. islam is a works based religion.
C. ilsam is a religion that demands human sacrifice.
D. The oldy true God in the universe is the God of Abraham Isacc and Jacob the Lord of Israel.
The sheer hatred of anything christian or jewish proves every day that islam and mohammed were spawned by satan in the pits of hell.
No american wishes the death of any muslim for the bible says God has called all to repentance.
Its time someone says this
Muslims Repent for the kindom of God is at hand.
You will see the Lord Jesus comming down from Heaven in glory and the bible states that all mankind will see it but will not repent of their deeds.
Lastly the bible sates "You will be delivered into the synogoges and churches and the peopl who do this will belive they are doing god a service."
Sounds like islam
Repent for the kindom of God is truly at hand.
Things are getting desperate with hamas when they ask for the arab connection for help; there is a difference you see between being arabic and being a muslim, unlike the arab, the muslim lives for hate and killing.
