Hamas threatens to resume suicide bombings

Hamas is debating whether to resume suicide bombings inside the Jewish state and may allow its military wing to openly engage in anti Israeli attacks if Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud

Abbas is aided in his calls for new Palestinian elections, Hamas members told WorldNetDaily.

"If the Israelis or the Americans and international community interferes in Palestinian affairs and encourages Abu Mazen (Abbas) to go on with elections, this will lead to internal Palestinian clashes, but the fighting will not just remain internal," said Abu Abdullah, who is considered one of the most important operational members of Hamas' Izzedine al-Qassam Martyrs Brigades, Hamas' declared "resistance" department.

Abu Abdullah warned if the Hamas government falters the terror group "will use all tools it has, including coming back to suicide attacks inside Israel."

Hamas sources told WND the terror group is debating whether to publicly reintroduce its "military wing" and carry out attacks against Israel.

"It is only a matter of a political decision before we restart attacks and put our military wing into effect," said a top Hamas source.

The last Hamas suicide bombing inside Israel took place in 2004. In November, a Palestinian woman attempted a suicide attack on behalf of Hamas against Israeli troops in the Gaza Strip. The woman blew herself up prematurely after being identified by Israeli soldiers.

Still, Hamas' "military wing" has reportedly been active.

Abu Abdullah previously told WND Hamas has been preparing in the Gaza Strip for attacks against Israel.

"In the last fifteen months, even though the fighters of Hamas kept the ceasefire, we did not stop making important advancements and professional training on the military level. In the future, after Hamas is obliged to stop the ceasefire, the world shall see our new military capabilities," Abu Abdullah said.
