In a letter that appeared on the Hamas Web site dated July 4, Hamas convicts reportedly smuggled out a letter which said that, “The operation carries a very important meanings to be read carefully by everyone, as the resistance work to be continued and continuous whatever the limitations and precautionary measures, the resistance against the occupation is not exclusive to a part of people, but it is rather the right of the Palestinian people … The well-studied resistance based on the willingness of steadfastness and patience, it can alone impose the demands of the Palestinians against the occupation, it can alone end injustice siege on our people as happens in the Gaza Strip; whereas, the negotiation processes have proved its fiasco.”
