Hamas vows resolve to claim rights

Senior Hamas leader Mahmoud Zahhar has highlighted the Palestinian resistance movement’s determination to safeguard the legitimate Palestinian humanitarian and land rights in the face of Israeli terrorism.

“The antagonism we have always had towards the Israeli usurper entity comes as a response to their terrorism and has no connection whatsoever to any racially or religiously-prejudiced rationale,” Zahhar said on Tuesday while chairing the 8th National Conference to Preserve Palestinian Constants, which commenced in Gaza on the same day.

He said that “our holy Koran called for the equal treatment of all believers on the basis of justice, equality, cooperation and solidarity.”

The right of return, Zahhar said, “is every Palestinian’s sacred and legitimate right, no matter the time and place. What has started off as an individual pursuit has now turned into a collective concern, vital to the self-esteem and dignity of an entire nation.”

He further emphasized that Palestinians have cultivated a unique ethno-cultural specificity that has been passed down to generations of native offspring across different times and places, from which the Palestinian diaspora and displaced people have been drawing power.

The Palestinian leader reiterated Palestinians’ firm rejection of all alternative solutions to the liberation of Palestine or any other attempt aiming to liquidate the nationally sacred fight for freedom.

“All Palestinians, no matter their differences, should never forfeit the great civilization and a sacred soil they have always shared,” Zahhar said.

The development comes following a reconciliation deal reached between Hamas and the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) on April 23 to resolve their differences.

Under the deal, Hamas and the PLO, which includes Fatah, are to form a unity government within five weeks and hold national elections six months later.
