In response to Israel's Operation Pillar of Defense that aims to cripple the
terrorist infrastructure in Gaza and protect Israeli civilians, Hamas'
military wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, has produced videos addressing
Israelis.

"From the Palestinian people to the Zionists: We've missed the suicide
attacks. Expect us soon at bus stations and in cafés."

The videos, which include footage of fighting Al-Qassam Brigades members,
missiles being fired, and pictures of injured soldiers, also address Israeli
soldiers:

"From the Al-Qassam Brigades to the Zionist soldiers: On the edge of Gaza,
[your] grave is waiting for you."

Part of a song on Al-Aqsa TV also encourages suicide operations:

"Strap on your [explosive] belt, brave one, and burn them with fire.

Shake the earth beneath those who occupied our home."
