Hamas top official: Kill every last Jew and American [VIDEO]

A senior Hamas official said in a televised sermon that he wished for the annihilation of every single Jew and American.

The sermon by Sheik Ahmad Bahr, deputy speaker of the Palestinian
Legislative Council, was broadcast earlier this month on Hamas’s Al-Aqsa
TV.

“Oh, Allah, destroy the Jews and their supporters” and “the Americans
and their supporters,” he was filmed saying. “Oh, Allah, count them one
by one, and kill them all, without leaving a single one.”

The video was edited and translated by MEMRI, the Middle East Media Research Institute.

“If the enemy sets foot on a single square inch of Islamic land,
Jihad becomes an individual duty incumbent upon every Muslim, male or
female,” Bahr also said. “A woman doesn’t need permission from her
husband, nor a servant his master’s permission,” in order to engage in
jihad. This, Bahr said, is “in order to annihilate those Jews.”

The Islamist Hamas movement seized control of the Gaza Strip in 2007,
and won a majority of seats in the Palestinian parliament in 2006
elections.
