"If the West, America continue their support for Israel, our nation will view them as an enemy; This conflict might go beyond the borders of Palestine"

Sami Abu Zuhri, the head of the political department of Hamas abroad, warned in a January 5, 2024 broadcast on Al-Jazeera Network (Qatar) that the West and the U.S. need to reconsider their position regarding Israel. 

He said that if they do not stop their support for Israel, Hamas will consider them as enemies like the “Zionist occupation.” Abu Zuhri said that the conflict will continue as long as there is an occupation, and that if the U.S. continues with the same policy, “this conflict might go beyond the borders of Palestine, and it might expand in scope.”
