Minister of Religious Affairs: "[Palestinian] nation carries out Ribat today in the land of Ribat"
"This [Palestinian] nation carries out Ribat today in the land of Ribat; this is the nation that is defending its holiness, dignity and blessing – the land of Jerusalem… Has this occupation (i.e., Israel) succeeded in breaking the strength of the Palestinian people? Has it succeeded in breaking the strength of the Ribat fighters on the land of Jerusalem, upon the holy and blessed land of Palestine?"
