Hamas is getting increasingly desperate (as is Iran). Once jihadists stop benefiting from appeasement, the gloves come off, and then Islam is more exposed for what it is. The Palestinian “resistance” was always about Islam finishing its conquest of the Middle East. The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) already recognizes and embraces a State of Palestine, does not recognize Israel, and regards East Jerusalem as the capital of the “State of Palestine.”
OIC Secretary General Hissein Brahim Taha has also stressed the “significance of unity, solidarity among Muslims” and unwavering support for Palestinians.
The declaration by Hamas is an echo and affirmation of the OIC’s stance. Yet Hamas is also expressing frustration that these statements have not resulted in genuine action, at least the action that Hamas wants to see Muslim countries perform on its behalf.
“Hamas says statements and condemnations are no longer acceptable from Arab and Islamic countries,” Middle East Monitor, April 10, 2025:
The Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement has said that it is “no longer acceptable” for Arab and Islamic countries simply to make “timid statements and condemnations”, at a time when Israel is intensifying its killing in Gaza before the eyes and ears of the world.
“It is also inconceivable that our Palestinian people are being left alone in this fateful confrontation, without real support that rises to the challenge and the magnitude of the crime,” added Hamas in a press statement on Wednesday. The movement pointed out that the Israeli occupation army committed another massacre — described as “one of the most heinous crimes of the genocide” — by bombing a residential area crowded with civilians and displaced persons in the Shujaya district east of Gaza City.
By giving the occupation state its full support, said Hamas, the US is regarded as being complicit as a partner in the aggression against the Palestinians. “This is a stain on the international community, which stands helpless and silent in the face of the most heinous acts of mass murder and genocide. These brutal crimes, committed in full view of the world against innocent, defenceless civilians, with the aim of genocide and sadistic revenge, will not go unpunished, nor will they be forgotten with the passage of time.”
History, said the resistance movement, will hold accountable all of those who remained silent and colluded with the Zionist war criminals. It called on the leaders of Arab and Islamic countries to perform their historical and humanitarian responsibilities and to put every possible pressure on the occupation state and its supporters in Washington to immediately halt the aggression, lift the siege and hold the “war criminals” accountable for their crimes.
Furthermore, Hamas called on countries that still maintain relations with the Zionist occupation state to sever ties and close the embassies of the “Nazi entity” in solidarity with the Palestinian people….

After the Crimes Against Humanity by Hamas and Gaza residents in Oct. 2023, all war could have been avoided if Hamas came out of their tunnels, hands up and surrendered to Israeli forces and turned thier weapons in. But of course that was impossible. They had just committed their greatest achievement. The hideous murders, rapes, be-headings of infants, torture and kidnapping of many Jewish civilians as human hostages. They were at their happiest at that moment. Then came Israel’s response.
Maybe they expected Arab countries to rush their armies to the front and fight alongside the Hamas war criminals against Israel. But Arab nations were not ready for another trashing by the IDF as had happened in every prior war with Israel. But there was glorious Hezbollah. That didn’t last as Israel took out dozens of Hezbollah leaders and went after Hezbollah in Lebanon and drove them back. Then a new ally, the Houthies would come to their rescue and they did try. By attacking International shipping and effectively closing the Suez canal. But we see what happened to the part of Yemen the Houthies controlled. Arab nations didn’t want that happening to them.
Hamas is stupid to even think Arab nations would come to their defense. The palestinian cause is yesterdays cause and most Arabs want nothing to do with it except maybe talking in the UN.

Essentially, Hamas wants all 22 other Arab countries and all 50 muslim countries to go through what Hamas and Hizbullah went through over the last 12 months
It may surprise them to find out that neither the greater Arab nor the greater muslim population is that stupid

Yes, indeed. What a surprise to look behind you and see no one coming to join in. Just signifying monkeys urging you on. The surprise of finding out you are an expendable junk yard dog set upon Israel by distant forces at the end of your chain. If you succeed great, if not, oh well. . .enjoy your martyrdom.
