The Islamic Jihad organization in Gaza has initiated phone calls in the last day with Egypt and the UN and sent them a message that if the flag parade is held in the Muslim parts of Jerusalem, the organization will respond. "Israel Today" learned from a source in the Gaza Strip. 

A similar message was conveyed from the Islamic Jihad to Qatar through the Qatari representative, Muhammad al-Madi, who is currently in the Gaza Strip, saying, "If you want to stop the escalation, hello, and if not, there will be a response, we can not remain silent."

With that, it is not clear what the reaction will be and what form it will take.


A source in Gaza who spoke with "Israel Today" said that among some of the factions in Gaza there is a general willingness to go to confrontation with Israel, despite the price that may be involved.

According to him, Islamic Jihad is leading a hawkish line, and in the event that the organization decides to escalate the situation following actions taken by Israel, Hamas will find it difficult to stand in the way of jihad.

"If there are mirrors in Jerusalem that embarrass the Palestinian organizations, they will have to do something. Hamas would not want to drag Gaza into the war. Materially he knows he will not benefit from it, what with the flag parade all these years was on this track and there were no extreme problems. But politically. Religiously, you must sacrifice yourself. And for Hamas, the goal is not only to keep Al-Aqsa, but to live up to its public commitments. Losing public opinion, "the source said.

There is an oppressive feeling on the Gaza street.

A resident of Gaza described it as an atmosphere of war.

"The buzz of the Israeli army is constantly in the air as if something is going to happen. People are afraid of a possible escalation, and do not want a war on the flag parade. It's crazy, why would the poor people pay the price again? Who will benefit from it?"

"Hamas reads the picture and analyzes the political situation in Israel," the source added.

"The organization prefers to see a strong leader in Israel who can say no to the flags parade. We also see your prime minister and the pressure from Mansour Abbas and Rinawi Zoabi. Hamas still fears the assassination of its leaders. Right now there is silence on this issue, it is worrying and Hamas May eliminate because then his popularity will rise "
