Al-Batsh: Israel began the clash with the axis of resistance with the arrival of Socotra

SANAA, Sept. 19 (YPA) – Islamic Jihad leader Khaled al-Batsh confirmed that the Israeli enemy began  clash with axis of resistance with the arrival of its bases at Iran’s borders in the UAE and to Socotra in Yemen,  calling for an armed resistance in the West Bank, occupied Palestine.

“When Israeli enemy bases reach Iran’s borders and to Socotra in Yemen, it means that direct engagement with the axis of resistance has begun,” al-Batsh told Al-Masirah TV in a televised interview on Friday night.

He pointed out that the reality of the Palestinian resistance today is different with the existence of the axis of resistance.

He added: “Today the facts unfold, and the axis of Palestine will win, and in every battle, it is necessary to distinguish between the trenches of truth and falsehood.” “Today we are in front of two camps, a surrender camp in the face of the axis of resistance and the support of the Palestinian people.”

“The illusion of normalization will be dispelled by the sound of guns on the occupied territory of Palestine, and the printing press systems have doomed themselves to failure,” said Khaled al-Batsh, leader of the Islamic Jihad movement.

“Arab regimes are on Washington’s side, working for Trump and signing agreements without access to them, as has been the case with the Bahrain and UAE regimes. America has moved its embassy to Jerusalem and declared it the capital of the Israeli entity and whoever goes to normalize with the enemy is giving up al-Quds ” Jerusalem.”

He continued: “It is unfortunate to hear that other Arab countries will join the train of normalization with the enemy, and if Saudi Arabia joins, it is lining up with the enemies of the Palestinian cause.” Us President Donald Trump’s announcement of Saudi Arabia’s “openness to normalization with Israel.”

Al-Batsh noted that this trot of Arab regimes to normalize with the Israeli enemy is not surprising.

In fact.”We are not shocked by what is happening, because the Arab Peace Initiative recognizes Israel, and what is new is that some Arab regimes align themselves with the Israeli enemy,” he said.

“We do not accept the Arab peace initiative and consider it an Arab Balfour declaration for the Israeli entity because it recognizes Israel, and even the two-state solution accepted by the PLO, the Israeli enemy no longer recognizes it, and the Palestinian Authority must be clearer.”

“The enemy will begin its battle to displace the people of the West Bank and will tighten the siege on it, and we believe it will be concentrated in the West Bank, and it will be comprehensive even towards the authority.” “Armed resistance must be launched in the West Bank,” he said, referring to the need to change the PA’s position, he stated.

“We are committed to our choice and our people and to prepare for confrontation in the West Bank and Gaza,” said Khaled al-Batsh.

“The choice of popular resistance does not eliminate the option of armed resistance, as evidenced by the recent bombing of Ashdod, and all forms of resistance are our choice,” he added.

“Palestine is the central issue of the nation and its centrality will not change because of the jog of some Arab regimes for normalization,” he stressed. “Despite the war imposed on the Yemeni people, we see hundreds of thousands of people coming out in support of Palestine, and we bet on the awareness of the people, but the countries  do to have normalization with Israelis  have doomed themselves to failure,” he said.

“The option of comprehensive resistance means that we start fighting from stone to balloon to missile, and the resistance missiles at the signing of the Agreement of Shame confirmed to the world that the battle is being fought in Palestine, not in Washington,” he concluded.
