Hamas Urges the World to Engage in a ‘Day of Jihad’ on Friday the 13th
Hamas, a terrorist organization in Palestine, has urged Muslims all over the world to engage in a “Day of Jihad,” or holy battle, on Friday, October 13th, a day that, ironically, is associated with horror films and the approaching Halloween holiday.
On Friday, Hamas referred to the day as “Al-Aqsa Flood,” using the name of the operation in which it killed over 1,200 Jews, injured almost 3,000 people, and abducted over 100 more.
The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) reported Hamas as saying:
“We declare next Friday, ‘The Friday of the Al-Aqsa Flood,’ as a day of general mobilization in our Arab and Islamic world and among the free people of the world. It is a day to rally support, offer aid, and participate actively. It is a day to expose the crimes of the occupation, isolate it, and foil all its aggressive schemes. It is a day to demonstrate our love for Palestine, Jerusalem, and Al-Aqsa. It is a day for sacrifice, heroism, and dedication, and to earn the honor of defending the first Qibla of Muslims, the third holiest mosque, and the ascension of the trusted Messenger.
…
We call upon the free people of the world to mobilize in solidarity with our Palestinian people and in support of their just cause and legitimate rights to freedom, independence, return, and self-determination.”
Also, Hamas urged Israeli Arab residents to revolt against the state and urged Palestinians living in the West Bank, commonly known as Judea and Samaria to Jews, to rise up against Israeli soldiers.
