Fathi Hammad’s declaration that Palestinians are preparing to establish an Islamic caliphate with Jerusalem as its capital is a manifestation of how jihadis worldwide are emboldened after October 7. It is also a stark reminder of how often Islamic leaders and groups state their goals publicly, but most Westerners do not believe them or pay no attention. Instead, they tar those who do take them seriously as “Islamophobes.”
Hammad is saying nothing new. He is just saying it in a brazen and violent manner. It still won’t register with most Westerners, but he is serious. The Palestinian Authority, Hamas, Iran and, in fact, all jihadis seek to obliterate Israel so that Islam can complete the conquest of the entire Middle East. And then they will indeed likely endeavor to establish Jerusalem as the capital of a global caliphate.
It is worthwhile to remember that the Organization of Islamic Cooperation already regards the Palestinian territories as the “State of Palestine.” For that reason, the OIC declares that it has 57 members, when there are really 56. It is a deception that Islamic countries are aiming for a two-state solution. They aspire to a one-state solution with Jerusalem as the capital.
Hamas is a Muslim Brotherhood offshoot, and the Muslim Brotherhood calls upon Muslims to wage jihad as a religious duty. Hamas is only the tip of the iceberg. Israel may defeat it, but the jihadist goal of a global caliphate will not end. Neither will jihad violence aimed at Israel — and other infidel polities.
The determination to reestablish the caliphate is backed by the record of 1,400 years of jihad. What more do people need? The truth that few want to hear is that Israel is at the forefront of the battle for all of the West.
“Hamas Official Fathi Hammad: Palestinians Are Preparing To Establish An Islamic Caliphate With Jerusalem As Its Capital; West Bank Security Forces Should Rise Up Against The Traitor Mahmoud Abbas”, MEMRI, December 1, 2023:
Hamas Political Bureau member and former Minister of the Interior Fathi Hammad said on a December 1, 2023 show on Al-Aqsa TV (Hamas – Gaza) that the Palestinians are preparing to establish an Islamic caliphate, with Jerusalem as its capital city. He said that the Palestinians cannot ask where the Arabs are, while some of them continue to take orders from the “traitor” Mahmud Abbas. Hammad called on Abbas to relinquish his control over the Palestinian Authority security forces and “side with his people.” He asked the PA security forces whether they are “real men” who care about their people. Hammad called on the people in the Arab countries for help, singling out Jordan, which has a 400 km border with Israel. He said: “You must rise up, just as the Palestinians rose up.”
Fathi Hammad: “The [Palestinian] people have been soldiers throughout history. They are now preparing to liberate Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque, and I am saying this loud and clear: [The Palestinian people] are preparing to establish the Caliphate, with Jerusalem as its capital city, Inshallah. Jerusalem will not only be the capital city of Palestine as an independent state – it will be the capital city of the Islamic Caliphate.
[…]
“This requires the following: First, the Palestinian people must unite under the banner of ‘There is no god but Allah’. The pathetic president, [Mahmoud] Abbas, must not have a monopoly over a part of the Palestinian people, and have a hold on the weapons in the West Bank, where 70,000 AK-47s are pointed at our Palestinian people.
[…]
“We – as Palestinians – must rise up, and get rid of these elements of treachery and collaboration. With whom does [the Palestinian Authority] collaborate? With the Jews and Christians who are killing your people. This must not be allowed. We must rise up. Palestinian unity is required quickly.
“As Palestinians, we must not ask: ‘Where are the millions of Arabs and Muslims?’ while some of the Palestinians are still taking orders from that traitor, Abbas. Therefore, I am saying loud and clear: Abbas the traitor must side with his people, and he must relinquish his control of the [PA] security forces.
“As for the members of the [PA] security forces – what are you waiting for? I am not even talking in terms of being Muslims, but in terms of being noble. Are you not noble? Are you not real men?

What should we do. Is it time to decimate them. Hitler (yemach shemo) said the same thing. What might be a good idea is simply to flood the tunnels… To hell with the rest of the world. They hate Jews anyway. The only way we Jews will survive is by strength. They will kill us otherwise. Remember the Samson option. If we are threatened, then let the entire world go with us.
I am amazed by the sheer stupidity of the students in the schools, and the willing idiots. The only thing i can think of right now is that we are at the end of times. And the stupid, stupid Europeans like the Belgians…they hate the Jews. But they are getting theirs. Wonderful. And France. And England.
I bet the no one wants LUxemburg. I saw that on Monty Python, with the treaty of Westphalia. Sorry for being all over the place. I just hope that Israel floods the tunnels. And that the Hamas people get sniffles because their feet are wet. That will teach them
I cannot believe how Gd works. Karma sucks. It’s nekama time babies. Remember Snackbar. Remember Snackbar You Splodey Dopes

I read a report that the IDF have installed pumps and are getting things ready to flood the tunnels with sea water.

Where is this Fathi Hammad at this moment ? Can somebody neutralize this ISLAMO NAZI soon ? The last of convulsions…….he is a desperate loudmouthed dangerous piece of sh-t and deserves to go with agony . WITH AGONY.

And muslims – especially Arabs – will overlook the credentials of historically muslim cities like Baghdad, Damascus, Cairo, even Jeddah, & just agree to let Jerusalem be their capital? In the hypothetical scenario that it actually happens? Also, has Hamas checked w/ ISIS? A few years ago, I recall there being clashes b/w Hamas and ISIS somewhere in the region
Julia says
I think they brainwashed themselves enough to believe that Jerusalem is important in Islam, or they don’t want to offend other Islamic countries and make them think they are going to attack them. Obviously Mekkah would be the Capital of a global Islamic state. But Mekkah is under Saudi rule and they are ready to defend themselves against terrorist groups.

For answers to his last two questions: Under N in the dictionary, with the meaning of a negative response. “No” and “No.”
somehistory says
King David, a young Jew, along with some of his men, took Jerusalem away from the Jebusites.
” The king and his men went to Jerusalem to attack the Jebusites, who lived in that region. The Jebusites told David, “You will never get in here. Even the blind and the lame could turn you away” 7 But David captured the fortress Zion (that is, the City of David). ”
The “blind and lame” mozlums already have some illegal power in Jerusalem and attend their barracks. How can he claim that the “palestinians” will “liberate” it? they may at some point, overrun that city, with help from turkey, iran, russian, etc.
They will never do as they claim and wish to do….to completely take over the earth and its population for satan the devil.
Westman says
The US vetoed article 99. It might be wise for jihad groups to keep their ideas of a Jerusalem based Caliphate on hold.
