Hamas Political Bureau member Osama Hamdan said in a video that was posted to SamaQuds on YouTube on October 11, 2024 that achieving victory and living in freedom and dignity comes with a price, but that living in humiliation comes with an even greater price. He said that living in submission and obedience is a despicable, insignificant, and worthless existence, and that when you fight the enemy, at least he knows that he is also paying a price, and he does not have the same faith and conviction that you have. He also said that for the enemy, Palestine is merely a place to lead a pleasant and happy life, and that if the enemy suffers enough losses, it will ultimately lose and surrender.

"Achieving Victory Comes With A Price... But Living In Humiliation Comes With A Greater Price"
Osama Hamdan: "Achieving victory comes with a price perhaps. It does for certain. Living in freedom and dignity comes with a price, but living in humiliation comes with a greater price. Nobody should think that living in submission, obedience, and humiliation costs nothing. The smallest and worst price is that you are despicable. You are leading an insignificant and worthless existence on the margins of life. For the enemy, you are a slave.
"For The Enemy, Palestine Is Merely A Place It Can Lead A Pleasant And Happy Life; So If The Tables Turn, And The Enemies Suffer Losses, They Will Definitely Leave, Or They Will Lose And Surrender; In Both Cases We Will Be Victorious"
"Perhaps the enemy is killing you and you are fighting back, but at least the enemy knows that he is also paying a price, getting killed, wounded, and hurt. The enemy does not have the conviction and the faith that you have. For the enemy, Palestine is merely a place where it can lead a pleasant and happy life. So if the tables turn, and the enemies suffer losses, they will definitely leave, or they will lose and surrender. In both cases, we will be victorious."
