Haniyeh; A man for resistance and diplomacy
Mehr News, International Group: In his 61-year-old life, Ismail Haniyeh tried to learn all the virtues, beliefs, managing goals and ideals in parallel and neglecting nothing. did not stay This is the personality structure of Ismail Haniyeh that made him a leader and politician who never made the mistake of forgetting the importance of weapons and military power at the expense of highlighting the issue of politics and diplomacy. Ismail Haniyeh, with more than 40 years of fighting history, had understood this truth with his heart and soul that in order to win against Zionism, one should not neglect the necessity of having power.
The two wings of Haniyeh’s political thought
Hamas Hero Movement was established at a time when the oppression and violence of the Zionist regime against the Palestinians had reached its peak and the wounded and oppressed soul of the Palestinian society needed armed fighters. that they can stand against the occupier with strength. Following the company of Ismail Haniyeh with his teacher and mentor Sheikh Yassin and other Palestinian fighters, a generation of teenagers and young people came to the battlefield, whose most important educational and military pillar was power based on faith, education and order.
Later, Ismail Haniyeh was one of the leaders and fighters who highlighted the necessity of the participation of the Hamas movement in politics as a historical need. This valuable idea caused Hamas, with the same revolutionary spirit that it had acquired in its military training, to bring forth a generation of brave cadres in the field of politics and negotiation, who, unlike some old Palestinian groups, are present in the matter of political struggle. He was not flexible against the threats of the enemy. In this way, a kind of coordination and companionship between the two wings of the military and political struggle in Hamas was created, which we can safely say has been unique in the history of the resistance.
Ismail Haniyeh’s clear understanding of power relations as well as his understanding of the psychology of the Zionist regime led to the formation of the revolutionary belief that “Zionists, with a language other than the language of power They are not familiar with the military” and they will not stop their aggressive positions until they believe that there is a powerful organization in front of them that can endanger their existence. Ismail Haniyeh considered both the wings of military power and diplomacy to be important and vital for the cause of Palestine, and even in the situation where several of his children, grandchildren and loved ones were martyred in Gaza, he did not speak about the importance of the Al-Aqsa storm operation and the unparalleled struggle of Izzedin Qassam fighters. , say something that smells of weakness and doubt.
Ismail Haniyeh was not willing to sacrifice principles and ideals for small privileges. The Zionist authorities, many times through intermediaries, conveyed the message that if Ismail Haniyeh, as the head of the political office of Hamas, recognizes the existence of Tel Aviv, even if unofficially and without a written statement, many problems will be solved quickly. However, with his pleasant Arabic tone, Haniyeh said twice in a row: “By God, we will not recognize Israel… We will not recognize Israel.” (By God, we do not recognize Israel).
Although in the history of Palestinian fighters, we have witnessed the positions and words of people who sometimes forgot the main and vital priorities in expressing the positions of their nation, Ismail Haniyeh never He was not deceived, he was not neglected, and in expressing his views, he did not forget vital and strategic issues such as the dismantling of the settlement system, the end of the lives of the occupiers, the release of all Palestinian prisoners, the independence of Palestine, and the return of the refugees.
That politician and revolutionary fighter and the true son of Palestine, who was known as a terrorist by America, the Zionist regime and the supporters of this regime, devoted his 61-year-old life to the cause. The nation oppressed him and the enemies, who had no means against his strong logic, his comrades and supporters, resorted to terror and crime again.
