Fars News (Iran): "Islamic Jihad Leader Stresses Palestinian Determination to Take Back Occupied Lands"

Hamas officials often appear in the Iranian press making similar statements--and it is all translated into English:

Secretary-General of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement Ramadan Abdullah underlined Palestinians' determination to take back their territories from the Zionist occupiers, and said his people would not give even an inch of their lands to the usurper Israeli regime.

"We want the freedom of entire Palestine and will not give even an iota of our territories to anyone," Abdullah said, addressing the First International Conference on Islamic Awakening in Tehran on Saturday.

"The capital of Palestine is the holy Quds," he added, reiterating that Palestinians are resolved to the take back their capital from the Zionist occupiers.

Abdullah further blasted the US and certain Arab countries for exercising different plots to forge reconciliation between the Muslim countries and the Zionists, and praised the Iranian nation for resisting against such schemes and conspiracies.

He assured the audience that Palestinians would continue resistance against the Israeli regime and its allies, and said, "We should free the whole Palestine from the yoke of the Zionists".

Prominent Palestinian political and religious figures have always praised Iran's glorious and honorable stance in support of the oppressed Palestinian people.

Iran is due to hold an international conference on the Palestinian uprising (intifada) in Tehran on October 1-2.

Member of the Iranian parliament's Presiding Board Hossein Sobhaninia said in July that the conference, sponsored by the Iranian parliament, will be held to "find solutions for achieving the rights and ideals of Palestinians."
