Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Muslim Brotherhood:
Since the beginning of the intifadha in 1988, the IAP
has continued to distribute HAMAS communiques together with
their English translations. The most recent example of such
literature was the 90th Communiqu, of HAMAS, dated September
5 1992, which was distributed in October 1992.[41]
In early 1990 a HAMAS communique translated into
English and distributed by the IAP declared, "HAMAS ...
asserts its announced position that our battle is with the
Jewish enemy today and [internal] conflicts serve no one
except the enemy." [42]
The same communiqu, praised a terrorist attack against
Russian Jewish immigrants to Israel, emphasizing that "This
way, Russian Jews can be prevented from entering Palestine."
Instructions encouraging further attacks against Russian
Jewish immigrants were detailed later in the pamphlet, with
the words, "Consider February 17 - February 20, 1990 as days
of escalation and ambushes in protest against the Soviet
Jews' immigration." The communique was signed,
"LET THE INTIFADA CONTINUE.
ALLAH IS THE GREATEST. AND VICTORY IS TO ISLAM.
Islamic Resistance Movement in Palestine - HAMAS"
In previous years, the IAP has distributed its own
translation of the Charter of HAMAS,[43] which calls for the
annihilation of Israel and its replacement with an Islamic
state from the "[Mediterranean] Sea to the Jordan River."
The Charter further defines HAMAS' battle against Israel as
a theological one, in which Palestinians inspired by a
reawakening of their identity as Muslims wage a divinely
ordained war against Jews. The HAMAS Charter describes the
Day of Judgment in the following terms:
"The Last Hour would not come until Muslims fight
against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them, and until
the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree, and
a stone or a tree would say, 'Muslim, or Servant of Allah,
there is a Jew behind me - come and kill him!' but the tree
of Gharqad would not say it, for it is the tree of the Jews.
" [44]
