Khalil al-Hayya, a deputy to Hamas Gaza leader Yahya Sinwar says the group's aim is not to run Gaza but to shake the Middle East and put Palestinian issue back in focus; Tells New York Times expected Arab world to join fight
The Hamas party ran on a moderate platform, Israel came in and murdered almost all of the elected leaders six months after they took office. The people who replaced them were not elected and did not have moderate values. They also decided not to have elections anymore. Half of the people who were alive for that election are dead. I don’t feel comfortable with this whole “Well, they’ve made their bed and now they can sleep in it while Israel indiscriminately bombs it” mentality.
