Middle East Conflict: Shedding Palestinian blood is 'haram' - PRC

The Popular Resistance Committees (PRC), has issued a statement saying that Shedding Palestinian blood is 'haram' ('prohibited').

The statement added, "We might be killed by the occupation and [for that] we can be patient and we can have sacrifices against the enemy, but to kill each other, that is unbearable."

Ma'an news agency reports that in the statement issued in the Gaza Strip, the PRC warned against the bloodshed while the Palestinian dream is being strangled and questioned why the world's rejection of the results of the elections. "Was there any fault committed by the Palestinian people when Palestinians voted freely in the elections and chose Hamas and the resistance to get rid of Oslo?"

The statement also said, "We call on you, everyone, in the name of Allah, everyone who is carrying a weapon, to aim it in the right direction, which is at the enemy".
