Hamas just said, as it has said thousands of times before, that "armed resistance is the only way to liberate Palestine."
This means rockets, kidnappings, and terror attacks.
Dr. Younis al-Astal, Hamas leader in Khan Younis, said that Hamas "resistance" during the Gaza war has already proven that Zionists could never feel secure.
He was speaking during a festival organized by Hamas to honor the families of the martyrs of Khan Younis
Astal said that there is no way that Hamas will abandon its weapons under a unity government, saying "this is our weapon and our spirit and our jihad for the sake of God."
Of course, Hamas' insistence on terror as its main function will never sway the many Western Hamas cheerleaders. They will continue to insist that Hamas is peaceful and pragmatic as many times as Hamas will continue to say the exact opposite in Arabic.
And Western audiences never hear the Arabic.
