“You have millions of Muslims in Europe. Why should they keep silent when they see that the holy places are insulted or stormed by Jews? It means you are creating … a new conflict area in France, Luxembourg, Belgium, and America. Everywhere.

“I have to recall that it is not a conflict between Gaza and Israel – it is a conflict between Palestinians everywhere and Israel. And if it is about the holy places, it means that you are recruiting millions and millions of Muslims to the same conflict.

“And you are converting a political conflict into a religious one, which makes it very, very complicated and much more difficult to solve … There’s no negotiation, compromise or coexistence … because it is all or none.”Eliyahu Freedman, “Before Flag Day, Hamas warns tensions turning more religious,” Al Jazeera, May 17, 2023, https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2023/5/17/before-flag-day-hamas-warns-tensions-turning-more-religious.

“The Hamas movement believes that this day is a chance to unify the efforts of the Ummah and the free peoples of the world that are aimed to support of the Palestinian people’s rights and freedom struggle against the Israeli occupation.

“First: Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque are the core of the Palestinian struggle against the Israeli occupation, which occupies our Palestinian homeland, kills and displaces our Palestinian people and Judaizes their holy sites. They will remain at the heart of Palestine and the Muslim world, which has a collective responsibility to liberate them from the fascist occupation.

“Second: We call on the Arab and Muslim nations to mobilise all efforts at the political, diplomatic, media, and humanitarian levels in order to rally more support for our Palestinian people, who are standing steadfast on their historical homeland, and back Palestinian worshippers at the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

“Third: We hail our Palestinian people at home and in refugee camps abroad who have embraced the option of comprehensive resistance to defend their homeland, Jerusalem, Palestinian detainees, and the Al-Aqsa Mosque. We will continue endorsing such an approach until our Palestinian people restore their legitimate rights and achieve their aspirations for freedom and a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.” “Press release on International Quds Day,” Hamas, April 14, 2023, https://hamas.ps/en/post/4675/Press-release-on-International-Quds-Day.

“How ironic is it that the most cowardly nation in the world, the Jews, could enter Masjid Al-Aqsa with roaring and growling like lions, but the soldiers of Salahuddin Ayyubi are imprisoned in their military barracks like mice!?

“O Muslims! Shedding tears is not enough, boiling with anger and sorrow is not enough, expressing grief and anger on social media is not enough, nor is boycotting Jewish products enough, which they bring to the land of Muslims. It is your duty to liberate every square foot and every inch of Palestinian land from the clutches of the Jews. It is incumbent upon you to capture and shake every son, brother, father and grandfather present in the Pakistani army and demand with determination, “Are there no Salahuddin Ayyubis among you?!” O Muslim soldiers of the Pakistani army!

“Your hands are tied up by this rotten capitalist system! Raise for the sake of Allah (swt) and uproot this man made system and support the establishment of Khilafah Rashidah (rightly guided Caliphate) on the method of Prophethood. Only then you can unleash your self for the sake of Allah (swt) and strike the heads of cowardly Jews and Hindus and their supporters.” Mohammed Adil, “Forces of the Jewish Entity Attack Palestinians in Al-Aqsa for the Second Time,” Hizb ut-Tahrir Central Media Office, April 13, 2023, https://www.hizb-uttahrir.info/en/index.php/2017-01-28-14-59-33/news-comment/24464.html.

“Every day, the Jewish entity escalates its injustice, immorality, and oppression. Shedding pure blood morning and evening, storming Al-Aqsa Mosque on a daily basis, and restricting movement in it even in front of the owners of the false “Hashemite custodianship”. Its planes invade the defiant Gaza Strip. Netanyahu government is calling for the annexation of what is left of the land. All of this is committed without restraint. This is because the traitorous Palestinian Authority is still clinging to the mirage of the alleged peace, and to the American two-state solution project, and it is still loyal to the enemies of Allah and His Messenger.”“On the Anniversary of the Destruction of the Khilafah Palestine Will be Liberated by the Khilafah, So mobilize The Ummah and Its Armies to Establish it (Translated),” Hizb ut-Tahrir Central Media Office, February 17, 2023, https://www.hizb-uttahrir.info/en/index.php/leaflet/palestine/24287.html.

Extremists: Their Words. Their Actions.

Fact:

On October 7, 2023, Hamas invaded southern Israel where, in the space of eight hours, hundreds of armed terrorists perpetrated mass crimes of brutality, rape, and torture against men, women and children. In the biggest attack on Jewish life in a single day since the Holocaust, 1,200 were killed, and 251 were taken hostage into Gaza—where 101 remain. One year on, antisemitic incidents have increased by record numbers.
