During a military parade, conducted in Gaza on December 14, 2014, Khalil Al-Hayya of the Hamas leadership declared: "Palestine, all of Palestine, from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River, is pure Arab Islamic land, which we will share with no one."

Following are excerpts from the parade and speeches, broadcast by the Hamas Al-Aqsa TV:

Announcer: This is an anti-aircraft Patriot missile. Dear brothers, we brandish our rifle today as we did in the past. It is the rifle that was carried by our leader and commander Abu Muhammad Al-Ja'bari. Now a top commander who carried it has passed it on to one of the mujahideen. We want to pass this rifle on to our political leader, brother Ismail Haniya.

Dear brothers, your enemy understands only one language – the language of the spear.

Song in the background: Go ahead, Qassam hawks, go ahead, Hamas men.

Go ahead, Qassam hawks, go ahead, Hamas men.

Go ahead, Qassam hawks, go ahead, Hamas men.

Go ahead, Qassam hawks, go ahead, Hamas men.

The settler does not sleep a wink. He is on the run for sure.

The settler does not sleep a wink. He is on the run for sure.

Go ahead, Qassam hawks, go ahead, Hamas men.

Go ahead, Qassam hawks, go ahead, Hamas men.

The settler does not sleep a wink. He is on the run for sure.

The settler does not sleep a wink. He is on the run for sure.

Bloodshed leads to bloodshed. You have nothing but anxiety.

Bloodshed leads to bloodshed. You have nothing but anxiety.

The colonialist is the greatest poison in Arab Jerusalem.

Khalil Al-Hayya of the Hamas leadership: Our basic principles are: Palestine, all of Palestine, from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River, is pure Arab Islamic land, which we will share with no one.

Hamas member: Allah Akbar! All praise to Allah!

Allah Akbar! All praise to Allah!

Allah Akbar! All praise to Allah!

Hamas member: Say: "Allah Akbar."

Crowd: Allah Akbar.

Hamas member: Say: "Allah Akbar."

Crowd: Allah Akbar.

Khalil Al-Hayya: Our principles say that the land of Palestine belongs to its residents – the Palestinians, the progeny of the Prophet's companions, his disciples, and the early Muslims. There is no solution for these Palestinians, who were dispersed hither and thither, and there is no possible solution for them other than return of them all to the land of Palestine. This is an axiom.

We shall never agree to compromise on this, nor shall we accept any agreement with the enemy with regard to it. We shall not accept any agreement with the Zionist entity with regard to the return of the refugees. It is our right for all of us to return, and the Zionists will compensate us after we drive them out in humiliation, for all the years that we have suffered in the wilderness of oppression and injustice.

Our principle is that Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque belong to us, and there is no room for the Zionists there. There is no room for the occupation of even a single inch of it. Jerusalem is the untied capital of the Arab Islamic Palestine. Jerusalem is the focal point of the Islamic-Zionist conflict. This is an unchangeable principle, and as we have been taught by the annals of history and its lessons, the occupation will come to an end only by means of the gun and of resistance.
