IRAN FINALLY LAST NIGHT LAUNCHED LESS THAN 200 MISSILES.
ARE YOU DISAPPOINTED BY THE SUPPORT OR REACTION THAT YOU HAVE SEEN FROM IRAN? IT IS
A WAR CRIME
TO ASSASSINATE THE TOP NEGOTIATOR OF HAMAS REGARDLESS IN TEHRAN AND BEIRUT.
IT IS THEIR DECISION,
HOW TO DO IT, OPERATIONAL DECISION, LOGISTICAL DECISION, HOW TO DO IT.
WOULD YOU EXPECT MORE SUPPORT FROM IRAQ?
LOOK, WE ARE EXPECTING SUPPORT, NOT ONLY FROM THE IRANIANS,
WE ARE EXPECTING SUPPORT FROM ANYONE IN THE REGION AND OUTSIDE THE REGION.
WE ARE PEOPLE UNDER OCCUPATION
AND WE ARE LOOKING FOR OUR FREEDOM AND DIGNITY IS
STILL ALIVE.
WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME HAMAS
HERE IN QATAR COMMUNICATED WITH HIM?
WE ARE COMMUNICATING WITH OUR LEADERSHIP GENERALLY
REGULARLY.
I CANNOT NOW SEE WHEN EXACTLY WITH WHOM BUT HE'S
ALIVE BUT HE CAN'T COMMUNICATE BECAUSE HE'D BE KILLED.
WHAT I KNOW THAT HE IS STILL ALIVE. HE IS STILL
IN CONTROL, HE IS STILL COMMUNICATING WITH HIS PEOPLE ON THE GROUND. HE IS STILL
COMMUNICATING WITH THE LEADERSHIP OUTSIDE
WAS OCTOBER 7TH, A STRATEGIC MISTAKE FOR US. AFTER ONE YEAR
AFTER OCTOBER 7TH, WE CONSIDER OCTOBER 7TH AS A STRATEGIC ACHIEVEMENT.
AND
ISRAEL ESTIMATES THERE ARE 101 HOSTAGES STILL IN GAZA AND
THAT AT LEAST HALF OF THEM ARE STILL ALIVE.
IF YOU SAY THAT YOU,
YOU WANT A SOLUTION. WHY DON'T YOU RELEASE THOSE PEOPLE?
I DON'T KNOW
EXACTLY HOW MANY
CAPTURED SWEIS
IN THE GAZA STRIP. 101 120. I DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW
HOW MANY THERE, HOW MANY OF THEM ARE ALIVE.
THEY ARE IN DIFFERENT AREAS,
DIFFERENT GROUPS,
IN
A VERY COMPLICATED SECURITY SITUATION.
I HAVE TO RESPECT MY OWN PEOPLE AND TO SAY THAT
AT THE TIME WE HAVE 100 OR 120 CAPTURED ISRAELIS.
WE HAVE THOUSANDS OF PALESTINIANS WHO WERE KIDNAPPED FROM
THEIR HOUSES IN THE GAZA STRIP BY ISRAELI SOLDIERS.
THEY ARE LIVING
IN S
MAN OR OTHER ISRAELI
JAILS IN A VERY INHUMAN CONDITION.
