Palestinian Islamic scholar Sheikh Muhammad Qaddura said in an August 16, 2024, interview on Al-Alam TV (Iran) that Palestinians understand that the gun is the only way to liberate Palestine. He said that Palestine is a bride, and her dowry is blood. Qaddura added that Palestinians welcome their martyrs with exclamations of joy. He said that once they liberate Palestine, Palestinians will not accept a single grave of a Jew nor allow a single Hebrew word to remain, “so no trace of memory of them remains.” Qaddura said that the leader of the Iranian Islamic Revolution Ruhollah Khomeini should rest assured in Paradise that his slogan of eradicating Israel will be realized soon.
Sheikh Muhammad Qaddura: "Palestine is a bride, her dowry is blood, and we must endure, because we aspire to have an independent country, but the Israeli entity is a transgressing and oppressive entity, and therefore, this entity will be completely eliminated from this geographical area that is Palestine. We say to Khomeini, who raised the slogan 'Israel must be eradicated from existence.' Rest assured, in your Paradise, oh great imam – this slogan will be realized soon Allah willing.
"The difference between us and the Israeli enemy is that while we welcome our martyrs with ululation, exclamations of joy, rallying cried, and roses, they are mentally defeated. This is manifest in their wailing, screaming, disbelief, denial, and other forms of anguish.
[...]
"In wake of the Al-Aqsa Flood war, the Palestinians no longer pin their hopes on any kind of [negotiations] whatsoever. We do not trust or pin our hopes even on the Arab League or the GCC. We pin our hopes on resistance and confrontation alone. The enticement [of a ceasefire] will never allure those whose goal is martyrdom, victory, or liberation. This would work with those who want this world, but those who want the Hereafter have completely turned their backs on this, because the Palestinians have become more aware, and they understand better that the gun is the only way to liberate Palestine, and that the Israeli enemy must be eliminated from Palestine in its entirety.
"As I said in the past, after Palestine is liberated, we will not accept that even a single grave of a Jew remain in Palestine, so no trace or memory of them remains. Any Hebrew words will be erased, and it will be replaced by Arabic words, and words in the languages of countries that stood with the Palestinians."
