Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Hamas, Islamic Jihad vow to continue jihad terror against Israel despite “unity” pact with Palestinian Authority

Jun 9, 2014 4:13 pm By Robert Spencer

Islamic JihadDespite this crystal clear declaration, however, the Obama Administration has already signaled its willingness to work with the “Palestinian” “unity” government, and is without any doubt going to continue to pressure Israel to make concessions that would be disastrous for its national security. The “Palestinian” jihadists, meanwhile, are never similarly pressured.

“Hamas, Islamic Jihad Vow to Continue Terror – No Matter What,” by Dalit Halevi and Tova Dvorin, Israel National News, June 8, 2014:

Both Hamas and Islamic Jihad reiterated their commitment to terror over the weekend, stating that a “unity” pact with the Palestinian Authority (PA) and the new government’s public pledge to renounce terror does not change their views.

Hamas leader and former political figure Ismail Haniyeh stated in a public address Saturday – in honor of the opening session of terror training “summer camps” in Gaza – that “Hamas’s strategy has not changed and will not change.”

“Wherever [Hamas] presides, we will remain preachers and teachers and build the Palestinian nation to liberate all the land of Palestine,” Haniyeh said, referring to the entire land of Israel. “We emphasize now that we will not retreat from out plan to liberate our lands and ensure the right of return and the release of [terrorist] prisoners.”

Islamic Jihad, similarly, ignored calls from Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon to disarm due to the pact.

“Weapons [of resistance] will remain in our hands [. . .] in order to liberate all of Palestine,” Khaled Al-Batesh, Islamic Jihad leader, stated to Hamas-backed Palestine magazine Sunday.

The US and EU have largely predicated its willingness to “work with” the new unity government on the misnomer that the government does not actually include Hamas politicians.

PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas has insisted that a ‘unity’ government would be based on what he called”the four Palestinian principles”: recognizing Israel, recognizing the terms of international agreements, and the explicit rejection of violence and terrorism.

Despite this, Hamas announced that any “unity” government would be unequivocally subject to their approval before being established – and analysts say that both Hamas “ministers” and Islamic Jihad terrorists are expected to join the government soon.

Indeed, three Hamas-backed ministers were sworn in to the new government from Gaza on Monday via video feed.

    “Hamas, Islamic Jihad vow to continue jihad terror against Israel.”

    This is nothing but the usual islamic blah..blah..blah…
    It’s only a “saving face” tactic. Hamas had no other choice but to SUBMIT to Abbas. It’s Hamas’ only chance for survival after the defeat of its mentor, the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt.
    Hamas will have to play by the rules of Abbas.
    I think it will be easier for Israel to deal with a government than with a bunch of shadowy jihadists.

    Of course they will continue their Jihad against Isreal.
    BUT! The Isreali Defense minister recently stated,
    “If we have to go back into Gaza we will bring “Total War!”

      If the IDF were to do to Jihad Armed Camp and Forward Operating Base Gaza – which is a seething cauldron of genocidal Jew-hatred and Infidel-hatred in general – what was done to the Berlin of Hitler’s Third Reich, namely, level it and turn it to a field of ruin and ash, I for one would regard such a levelling as no more than what said seething cauldron of genocidal Mohammedan megalomania *deserves*.
