And the prize for Palestinian understatement goes to...

The spokesman of the Palestinian Hamas Izzedin al-Qassam brigades, in a rare understatement, noted that he doesn't expect the government to take any security action against "resistance" factions.

 

Anybody who had other expectations, like the Americans for example, must've been smoking some good dope.

 

Speaking out of all three sides of his mouth at once, The versatile spokesperson explained that "resistance" is the job of the resistance factions, not the department of the government. This division of labor assures that the the Palestinian government cannot be held culpable for crimes against humanity. On the other hand, he noted that divisions between the factions and the government and the people are artificial.

When asked about that the what you expect this resistance  to comprise from the new government , Abu Obaida, the spokesman of the Qassam Brigades answered that We don't expect the government to take any security action against resistance  factions as  with the case in previous governments but the government will not be involved directly in the resistance that is for the resistance factions to conduct .

Our task is to resist the occupation and reply to its crimes through out the Gaza Strip and the West Bank We don't expect the government to help us directly but we don't expect the government also to coordinate with occupation forces against resistance activists.

Abu Obaida added that " I would expect that Palestinians as a whole are in support of resistance and trying to grow the wide between  government and resistance factions is not something accurate."

Palestinians people  as a whole government , Palestinian factions, political parties are under occupation and the Palestinian people as a whole exercise their right to resist and so trying to divide government and people and factions is something that is very realistic.

Regarding any action from the Qassam Brigades against the occupation forces , the Brigades will not stop its military operations as the occupation forces did not stop their aggression against the Palestinian people.
