My Genocidal Antisemitism Does Not Necessarily Represent The Views Of My Genocidally Antisemitic Employer

By Yahya Sinwar, Hamas leader

Somewhere beneath Shifa Hospital, Gaza City, November 14 – Recent confusion regarding the specific manifestations of murderous hatred that I and my organization espouse has made it necessary to issue the following disclaimer: my expressions of wishes to rid the world of the Jewish scourge once and for all do not perforce constitute the official position of the movement I lead, which insists that the world must be rid of the Jewish scourge once and for all.

Most of the time our opinions on this important issue retain congruence, and only rarely must any clarification take place. However, integrity demands that in such cases that Hamas and I disagree on the timing, intensity, pace, methods, or other aspects of the noble effort to murder all Jews, the statements I issue in that regard may or may not represent the views of the movement as a whole.

Lack of clarity over his point has led to tension in various discussions; I appreciate the opportunity to resolve it. So, for example, if my private social media account posts a contention that all Palestinians must make every possible effort to kill Jews wherever they find them, that does not automatically indicate that Hamas will pursue such a policy in the immediate term. The resistance movement must take into consideration numerous factors that I, as an individual, need not weigh, such as the logistical support necessary to conduct such a project, and the shameful existence of forces that protect Jews instead of leaving them to the fate Islam reserves for all infidels.

In a similar vein, as an individual I might express an opinion of Mahmoud Abbas that does not characterize him as a treasonous dog who licks the Zionist boot, in no way may the public infer that the organization’s position on that matter has shifted. As an individual I enjoy rhetorical leeway that the movement at large does not, and as such I remain free to acknowledge the ways in which Mr. Abbas does contribute to the holy Palestinian national project of genocide against the Jews. Such acknowledgement, however, bears little or no connection to the official position of Hamas, which is that anyone who even in theory relinquishes the struggle to wage constant warfare against the Jewish usurper until said usurper no longer populates the Earth relinquishes his legitimacy as a leader, as an Arab, as a Muslim, and as a human being.

I hope that clarifies the matter.
