From The NEFA Foundation (Hat Tip: Counterterrorism Blog):
Slain Hamas Militant Challenges Political Leadership Over Participation in Democratic Elections,
“Supporting the Christians” (June 2008) The NEFA Foundation has obtained a new video from dissident members of the Izzadeen al-Qassam Brigades – the military wing of the Hamas terrorist organization in the Palestinian territories – of their recently slain comrade Rami Abu Suweirah (a.k.a. Abu Huzaifah) condemning the political leadership of Hamas for their decision to participate in democratic elections in the Palestinian territories, and for various other “violations of Shariah.” Abu Suweirah insisted, “I… pledge my innocence before Allah from having… participat[ed] in elections, entering polytheistic councils, making visits to infidel and apostate countries, congratulating and supporting the Christians… As for their supporters, policemen, intelligence agencies, and bodyguards—to all of you, we say: we wash our hands of you, and from what you worship in place of Allah. We wash our hands of your laws and courthouses, your methodology and constitutions. We wash our hands of your governments and courthouses, your slogans and foolish symbols. We have no faith in you, and hostility and permanent hatred have arisen between us forever.” (Arabic translation by CEIFIT)
Note that this statement does not mention Jews or Israel.
It has to do only with war against Christians, polytheists, and non-Islamic politicial institutions.
Like all good Communists, the Democrats support jihad against Christianity, honoring Ramadan while refusing to honor Christianity or Christmas.
Sheikh Yousef al-Qaradhawi, spiritual guide of the Muslim Brotherhood, paraphrased the Soviet propaganda of the anti-American operation Zionist Governments when he said:
“We are a Nation of Jihad and a Nation of Martyrdom”
“Muslims across the world have the right, and even the duty, to make Jerusalem their main concern and cause. Jerusalem is the sanctified city that Allah honored in His Book [the Koran] and associated it with the third holy shrine and the first qibla [direction of prayer] in Islam - the Al-Aqsa Mosque.”
[It is the mosque] where Muhammad arrived in his Israa’ [night journey], and from where the Mi’raj [Muhammad's ascent to Heaven] began [as related in Koran 17:1] ‘Praise be to He Who took His servant for a Journey by night from the Al-Haram [the sacred] Mosque to the Al-Aqsa [the farthest] Mosque, whose precincts We blessed, in order to show him Our signs.’… “
The cause of Palestine is the Islamic nation’s cause, from Jakarta to Ribat Al-Fath [i.e. Rabat] The entire Islamic nation - with all the Arabs and the non-Arabs in it - is responsible to Jerusalem, against which plots are being hatched and conspiracies are being woven, in the dark of night and by the light of day. We see that the conspiracy against it has come out in the open…”
We see the Judaization of glorious Jerusalem. We witness this with our own eyes, and feel it with our own hands. The excavations that were carried out underneath this magnificent mosque are still going on, and we do not know how long [they will continue]. Perhaps one day it will be announced that this blessed and magnificent structure has collapsed. “
The Islamic nation is not paying heed to this. We see that the Muslims are indifferent, and that they are distracted from this most important cause. The Jews and global Zionism are exploiting the inattention of the Islamic nation, the division and the dispersion from which it suffers, and the feebleness [of the nation] - which is, as the hadith says, love of this world and hatred of death. “
They have exploited Islam’s feebleness, Arab impotence, the world’s lack [of involvement], and America’s global conspiracy supporting Israel in everything. It [America] supports it [Israel] economically, militarily, and politically. With its veto, it defends it from condemnation [by the world], even if it has evidence of its oppression, aggression, and tyranny. “
Our Muslim nation has responsibility for this cause [Palestine]. It is not fitting for us to rely on the West or on the U.S. - which some say holds 99% of the cards. It holds them but it will give us nothing. We must stand against this plot against the cause of Islam and the Muslims, like a solid building, each part of which supports the other.
