Hamas Forms "Liberation Army" in Gaza
(Gatestone Institute) Khaled Abu Toameh - Instead of directing its resources toward the reconstruction of Gaza, Hamas has begun recruiting thousands of Palestinian youths between 15 and 21 to its new "Liberation Army." The new recruits will undergo military training by members of Hamas' Izaddin al-Qassam Brigades. "The main purpose of these training camps is to prepare an army for the liberation of Palestine and its holy sites in the near future," said Hamas spokesman Mushir al-Masri.
