GAZA - The Islamic Jihad Movement on Saturday lashed out at the official Arab silence vis-à-vis the "Israeli" occupation forces' crimes in the Gaza Strip, describing it as "unjustified".

The movement in a statement said that killing innocents and declaring war in such a manner and voicing threats from the heart of an Arab country against the Palestinian people should not pass unnoticed.

The "‘Israeli' enemy" has launched a "rabid" war on the Palestinians killing dozens with the collusion of many parties with the aim of exterminating resistance, Jihad charged.

It asserted that resistance would not stop in face of those crimes but would rather escalate, and added that scenes of murder and devastation "would not lead us to despair even if we remained alone in the battle".

Islamic Jihad asked the Arab and Islamic masses to hit the streets in support of the Palestinian people and resistance.
