Hamas official urges Iraqi opposition to âexpiate its sinsâ
The Hamas Movement representative in Lebanon, Osama Hamdan, called on the Iraqi opposition to âexpiate its sins,â referring to its unity with the American and British forces in their attacks against Iraq. Hamdan was speaking during a festival held Saturday by the movement, at the Ain al-Hilweh refugee camp, in support of Iraq and Palestine. âThe American insolent threats to Syria convey real annoyance with the Syrian resistance position,â Hamdan said, adding that after the victory of Lebanon, the âAmericans and the Zionists strived to thwart the resistance attempts in achieving victory once again... We will not wait until Syria is aggressed, we consider this threat as a declaration of war against the resistance and the nation.â Hamdan stressed that any aggression against Syria, âthe center of resistance,â will extend beyond geographic borders, urging the Arab nation to follow the steps of Syria, Lebanon and Palestine in its resistance. Sure hope we take you up on that declaration of war, Mr Hamas Big... Posted by: Fred Pruitt 2003-03-31 |
