Hamas responds to the killing of mass murderer Imad Mughniyeh with language reminiscent of the Nazis: Mughnieh murder ‘Zionist gangsterism’: Hamas.

GAZA CITY (AFP) - The Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas joined Hezbollah on Wednesday in accusing Israel of murdering one of the top commanders of the Lebanese Shiite movement, saying it was a “new example of Zionist gangsterism.”

Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri, speaking to AFP in Gaza City, called on Arabs and Muslims to “face up to this Zionist octopus whose crimes are now passing beyond the Palestinian territories to touch the Arab and Islamic world.”
