Reply #26: What a ridiculous assertion by Izz al-Dib al-Qassam [View All]

"Any assault on any Arab and Muslim country is an assault on the Palestinian people, part of the Arab and Muslim nation," the statement said.

Oh, OK. So a strike against any Muslim country is an attack on the Palestinians, a component part of the greater holistic entity, the Muslim 'nation'.

"After the Haifa martyrdom attack, the criminal enemy has attempted to export its internal crisis caused by the Palestinian resistance so they launched an air attack on Syria targeting places for Palestinian refugees."

But if the Palestinians attack Israel, it's 'exporting an internal crisis', and now suddenly the Palestinians are not part of, representative of or acting on behalf of the Muslim 'nation', and therefore any of their bases, facilities and personnel located outside of Israel are somehow, ambiguously, off-limits.

Not the brainiest spokesman they could have chosen.
