"Gaza – Ma’an – The Hamas movement staged a rally in Gaza on Tuesday in solidarity with Palestinian Christians and residents of Jerusalem.
Hamas said rally, which took place in front of the Al-Awda Mosque in Jabaliya, reaffirmed the holiness of Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary, and in protest of repressive Israeli policies in Jerusalem. The demonstration was attended by Hamas officials from the northern Gaza branch of the movement.
Hamas spokesman Tal’at Al-Majdalawi said, “The movement will always defend the religions and God’s prophets, and will always stand by the Al-Aqsa Mosque and Jerusalem.”
The demonstration comes days after news that Israeli authorities ordered 1,500 Palestinians to leave their homes in the Bustan neighborhood of Jerusalem."
I think rallying in support of fellow Palestinians who are being evicted is understandable. What I don't understand is this sentence, which I'm not sure if it comes from Hamas or from the writer of the article:
"Hamas said rally... reaffirmed the holiness of Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary!"
Isn't this kind of ... arrogant?
