Gaza, 7 Rabi’ul Akhir 1436/28 January 2014 (MINA) – Deputy head of Hamas political bureau, Dr. Mousa Abu Marzouk, slammed member of the Fatah Central Committee, Azzam al-Ahmad, for announcing Gaza “a renegade territory.”

Abu Marzouk said in a statement posted on his Facebook page, “Whoever speaks badly about Gaza has first to ask himself: Could he travel without a permit? Could he come to Gaza without a pass?

And above all, could he protect our people from abductions and massacres?,” The Palestinian Information Center (PIC) quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting.

The senior Hamas official advised al-Ahmed to try and prevent the misappropriation of Palestinian lands and stop demolitions of civilian family homes at the hands of Israeli occupation authorities rather than calling for the isolation of Gaza.

Abu Marzouk’s statement was released in response to the allegations unleashed by Azzam al-Ahmad in an aired interview declaring Gaza “a renegade province.”

“Gaza has defied the Israeli occupation and forced all settlers out. Gaza has stood its ground despite the huge damage and tough blockade tightened around its people’s necks,” he said.

“The real Palestinian is the one who has preserved the sanctity of his/her mother land and has never given up a single inch of its native soil,” the Hamas leader said.

“Yes we’ve carted off Israel’s hegemony over Gaza just as we will do in the rest of our occupied territories, God willing,” he further vowed.(T/P008/P3)
