MADAyuMadyan - Jarang-jarang
Hamas dalam persembahan kekuatan. Dalam sebuah acara yang jarang kekerasan berlaku,
pejuang dari kumpulan pejuang Islam Hamas berarak di sepanjang jalur Gaza.
Disertai oleh ahli-ahli Jihad Islam, 2 kumpulan PLO dan puak Islam lain,
beratus-ratus lelaki bersenjata, mengatakan perarakan mereka adalah kutukan
daripada rundingan damai baru Palestin-Israel.
Satu
militan berkata: "Kami tidak membenarkan sesiapa sahaja untuk berunding
bagi pihak kami Adakah kami katakan orang-orang kami lemah atau bangsa Arab
lemah? Kami kuat kerana kita mempunyai hak kami”.
Sementara
itu di Jerusalem pertempuran meletus buat kali yang ke-2 di sepanjang hari
selepas solat Jumaat. Sekitar 15 orang telah ditahan dan polis menggunakan bom ‘stun
grenades’ menyebabkan pengsan untuk menundukkan penunjuk perasaan Palestin.
Hamas in rare show of
strength . . .
In a
rare show of force, fighters from militant Islamist group Hamas paraded along
the Gaza strip. Joined by members of the Islamic Jihad, two PLO groups and
other Islamist factions, the hundreds of armed men said their parade was a
condemnation of the renewed Palestinian-Israeli peace talks.
One
militant said:"We did not authorize anyone to negotiate on our behalf. Did
we say our people are weak or the Arab nation is weak? We are strong because we
have our rights."
Meanwhile
in Jerusalem violent clashes erupted for the second time in as many days
following Friday prayers. Around fifteen people were arrested and police used
stun grenades to subdue the Palestinian protesters.
