During the celebrations Hamas leaders pledged to continue refusing to recognize Israel, or her right to exist.
They also pledged that soon the leadership of Palestine would be united.
At this point Hamas is not part of the PLO, which is the only body recognized by the UN as a representative for Palestine.
If Hamas does actually join the PLO, it would significantly unify the people they represent.
A model of an M75 rocket, the type most commonly fired at Israel, stood as a back drop for the speakers stand.
Hamas' charter states that it's very reason for existing, is to see Israel destroyed, and to establish an Islamic state in it's ruins.
