Hamas Spokesman: Those betting on movement’s collapse based on enemy’s promises will wait long time, then be surprised

Hamas spokesman Hazem Qassem said Friday that those anticipating the movement’s collapse based on promises from what he called a “foolish enemy” will wait a long time and ultimately find a movement more deeply rooted in its people and more influential.

In a Facebook post monitored by Saba, Qassem said the movement’s supporters remain loyal to those who sincerely love their homeland, stressing that the Palestinians will continue to stand by them.
