How not to win support for your cause, Hamas-style. The Australian, Wednesday:
A senior member of Gaza’s Islamist rulers Hamas has encouraged Palestinians across the globe to kill Jews … Fathi Hamad (called) on Palestinians across the globe to carry out attacks.
New York-based Algemeiner website, Wednesday:
Both Hamas and Fathi Hamad himself have distanced themselves from Hamad’s remarks on Friday, saying that Hamas was ready to attack all Jews worldwide. Hamas said: “These remarks do not reflect the official stances of Hamas and its policy, which state that our struggle is only against the Israeli occupation which occupies our land and desecrates our holy places. Again, our struggle is not with Jews elsewhere or with Judaism as a religion. Hamas has condemned and continues to condemn any attacks against the Jews and their worship houses worldwide.
According to Rappler website, this is what Hamad said:
Seven million Palestinians outside, enough warming up, you have Jews with you in every place. You should attack every Jew possible in all the world and kill them.
CBN News website, Wednesday:
