DAMASCUS, (PIC)-- Head of Hamas's political bureau Khaled Mishaal stated Friday that the resistance is the only way for the liberation of occupied Jerusalem, the return of refugees, and the establishment of the Palestinian state, and it will rise up against the Israeli occupation soon in the West Bank.

In a ceremony organized by Al-Quds international institution in Damascus, Mishaal stressed that hunting and disarming resistance fighters, renouncing armed activities against the occupation, and relying on the peace talks with Israel will never lead to freedom and a Palestinian state.

The Hamas official also addressed "illusion seekers" as he described the Palestinian Authority's negotiators by saying that the resistance is the only solution and without it the Palestinian rights will be all gone.

"There would be no liberation, Jerusalem, the right of return or a Palestinian state without resistance," he emphasized.

"I am saying to the makers of the international conspiracy, who sent us Dayton, you have built up a heap of illusions, but they are like a passing summer cloud and Al-Qassam [Brigades] of the West Bank will rise again to repeat the resistance epic that will restore Jerusalem and the Aqsa Mosque," the Hamas leader added.

"We will be tolerating the sons of our nation [from Fatah] even those who are besieging, turning their backs on, and conspiring against us; we will be patient with them because they will find out they are chasing a mirage and that Obama has let them down," he underscored.

"Let us respond to the international impotence and the Zionist arrogance with the resistance program. Jerusalem will remain our political destination for victory and liberation. As Makkah is the direction of worship, Jerusalem is the direction of resistance," Mishaal concluded his speech addressing the Arab leaders.
