(MEMRI) On Sep. 30, 2021, Hamas sponsored a conference in Gaza on "Post-Liberation Palestine," to discuss preparations for the future state of Palestine after Israel "disappears." The published concluding statement recommended rules for dealing with "Jews" in the country, including defining which of them will be killed or subjected to legal prosecution and which will be allowed to leave. It also called for preventing a brain drain of Jewish professionals, and for the retention of "educated Jews and experts in the areas of medicine, engineering, technology, and civilian and military industry...[who] should not be allowed to leave." Hamas leader in Gaza Yahyah Al-Sinwar said, "Liberation is the heart of Hamas' strategic vision, that speaks of the full liberation of Palestine from the sea to the river, the Palestinian refugees' return to their homeland, and the establishment of a Palestinian state with full sovereignty over its lands, with Jerusalem as its capital....We are sponsoring this conference because it is in line with our assessment that victory is nigh." Hamas political bureau member Mahmoud Al-Zahhar noted, "Hamas' dispute with the plan of Mahmoud Abbas and Fatah is that they are settling for the western side of Palestine being for the Jews and the eastern side for the Palestinians - what is known as the two-state solution....We must not relinquish a single inch of our land."
