In the name of Allah the most Gracious the most Merciful
Military communiqué
The Qassam Brigades
“Among the Believers are men who have been true
to their Covenant with Allah: of them some have completed their vow (to
the extreme), and some (still) wait: but they have never changed (their
determination) in the least:”
Our Mujahid Palestinian people … our Arab
and Muslim Ummah:
The Gaza massacre will not pass without
deterring retaliation
The Qassam Brigades would like to bear the glad tidings on the martyrdom of general commander of the Qassam Brigades in Palestine:
The general commander / Sheikh Salah Mustafa
Mohammed Shehada, 50
And the martyr commander / Zaher Saleh Abu Hussein (Nassar),
37
The Qassam Brigades today bid farewell to a great commander and teacher and affirm that the march of Jihad and resistance, which the Sheikh had great impact in igniting, would continue and escalate leaving the blood of its martyr to determine nature of the retaliation.
We vow before our Sheikh Salah (Abu Mustafa) to turn each and every Zionist house and street into a funeral. We vow before you our Sheikh commander to launch a reprisal act that satisfies Allah … for we have learned from you how to satisfy Allah. We pledge to you Abu Mustafa that we will not enjoy sleep until we see Zionists turning into scattered remains in all of their restaurants, buses and pavements. We promise, and all know our promises, to make Zionists curse themselves thousand times for the time they thought of killing you … Abu Mustafa rest in peace for you have won martyrdom that you had always wished.
The Qassam Brigades also mourn the wife of the
martyr general commander Sheikh Salah Shehada, sister Leila Khamis Yousef
and his daughter Eiman along with the other children and women martyrs who
fell as a result of the sinful crime. We pray for the immediate recovery
of all wounded brothers and sisters.
And it is a Jihad until either victory or martyrdom
The
Qassam Brigades
Sons of the martyr commander
Sheikh Salah Shehada and his disciples
